Fast Facts
- Oils used: Peanut oil, canola oil, safflower oil
- Cooking time: 4 minutes per pound
- Seasoned with injectable marinades or dry rubs
-
Peanut Oil You Say
Yes, peanut oil. Peanut oil can withstand the higher temperatures needed in deep-frying turkey's without burning. Other oils, including corn and vegetable oils smoke at lower temperatures and can create an unnecessary fire hazard, not to mention leave you eating just the green bean casserole and cranberry sauce. -
Safety Precautions
- Only deep fry turkey outdoors and away from anything flammable
- Carefully measure oil; too much oil can result in overflow and fire when the turkey is added
- Fully thaw the turkey; ice in turkey can react with the oil and lead to overflow and fire
- Have a fire extinguisher ready
- Keep children away at all times
