It's official.. ya'll are nuts... and cherries and black olives and oh oh.. peanut butter balls..

Looking forward to a nice holiday at her Mom's house... then we do our own Thanksgiving every year on Friday at home as I love the smell of a turkey, football... to me that's tradition and nobody in her family watches sports.. ewww, 4 brothers... ewwww.. hahaha...

Turkey is thawing, tomorrow I start the brine.

Me and my Brother in law will be deep frying 7 Turkey's and 4 chickens while we watch football and drink cold beer.
We do this almost every year. We cook Turkeys for other families. They drop by and pick them up.
Yehaaaaaaaaaa 🤠
 
Haven't deep fried a bird in years. It's my favorite way to eat one. Spookiest way to make one, too.
We have a propane boiler/cooker for fried turkey and boiled seafood. Cost a fortune to fill the pot with peanut oil and then you have to store it cold for next time or it will go rancid.

I bought 5 gallons of the expensive peanut squeezing's, used it one time almost had a giant fire and then never tried it again.
 
I did make a giant batch of fresh cut French fries that were delicious before we tried to fry the bird,
All said the best fries they ever ate,
Imagine how good that turkey would have been on a diet of nothing but French fries for a year! It’s like…like…double stuffing!!
 
Last deep fried turkey my drunk brother in-law cooked it for 3hrs.. it was nasty, shriveled up and tasted like burnt peanut oil.. from what I was told.. I ate ham that year...lol
I've done it for years. The Turkey taste great if you know what your doing and you inject it with some good spices.
3 hrs is way to long for a Turkey.😳
3 to 4 minutes per pound.
I'm pretty sure that Turkey didn't way 45 lbs cleaned and ready to cook.😋
If the turkey you purchased at the store weighs 16-24 pounds, then it's a tom, if it weighs 8 to 16 pounds, then it's a hen.
Most the Turkeys we deep fry are about 12 to 15 lbs. Takes under an hour. He burned the fk out of the Turkey you ate.😁

I always fried mine just inside the door of the big barn. I lowered the bird in with a gaff hook slowly and kept a 20 pound fire extinguisher close. Never needed it, but I felt more secure having it there.

Yeah, three hours is too long for turkey jerky, much less a carving bird.
