Don't forget that it always tastes better when the turkey is fried while frozen solid

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago
[–] nullPointer@programming.dev 118 points 2 months ago (3 children)

be sure to fill that baby alllll the way up before dropping the bird in from about counter-height.

[–] dingus@lemmy.world 52 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Also make sure the bird is frozen totally solid before slamming it in

Edit: Goddamnit I should have read the other comments first lol. Sorry for the 1000th repeat!

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 29 points 2 months ago (1 children)

We usually invite the whole family to watch the bird plopping ceremony.

[–] ovalofsand@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

"All right kids! Gather 'round! We're gonna plop the turkey!!"

Make sure the turkey is fully frozen before you put it in.

[–] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 49 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Also, since there will be a bit of oil splattering, make sure to quickly secure your lid with clamps. Hope you have a blast!

And throw it in quickly! Wouldn't want it to cook unevenly.

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 92 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Just go ahead and call the fire department now. It'll save everyone time.

[–] slaacaa@lemmy.world 55 points 2 months ago (1 children)

“Good afternoon. I would like to book 2 firetrucks and an ambulance for 3pm today. Yes, I can hold.”

[–] lolrightythen@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Make sure to have plenty of ice to cool down the oil

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 68 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Seasoning?

Monoammonium phosphate in a Class B shaker.

[–] nick@midwest.social 43 points 2 months ago

It’s a fire extinguisher, for those who might need to look it up (like I did)

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 3 points 2 months ago

Depending upon ventilation, if they succeed in drying it enough and not having it overflow getting it in, they might not have to worry about getting it out.

I've heard they're best when cooked from frozen

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 38 points 2 months ago

Such a setup would make me leave the premises faster than a bunch of MAGA-brain uncles could do.

[–] jewbacca117@lemmy.world 33 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Carbon monoxide, my favorite seasoning

I like how you're taking precautions by making sure your floor doesn't get damaged from the oil splatter. Great job!

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 30 points 2 months ago

If your oil is a bit too hot toss in some ice cubes

[–] wabafee@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago (2 children)
[–] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Firehose. For grease fires lol. Yes.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

Absolute fun multipliers!

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

And a few buckets of ice

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago

I'm just so glad all the comments have such useful advice for folks. I second the tips suggesting throwing it in frozen and adding more water when things get spicy.

[–] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago
[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Just a pinch of a fire truck on standby should do the trick.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 months ago
[–] hperrin@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Toss in a few plugged in power strips and extension cords to add a nice spicy flavor to everything.

I have several drunken and glib responses ranging from actual seasoning advice to something about the season of the witch. How-the-fuck-ever.....

Run. Just fucking run. Neighbors? Kids? Whatever. Run.

[–] Threeme2189@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

A coupe of hand grenades for some extra kick!
