Thread: Deep Fried Turkey! Yum!

We deep fried not one but TWO turkeys last year, and we lived to tell about it. Best damn turkey I've ever had!

So, I want someone to tell me exactly WHY deep fried turkey is SO much better than roasted. Cuz I'm a skeptic. Then again, none of you have had turkey cooked the way my Colombian mom makes it, so...I'm biased.


And no, she doesn't stuff it with coke.

its juicier on the inside, not dry at all and crispier on the outside. plus its deep fried there should be no reason to question it.

Cuz 99% of things are better fried... and it's fun to watch your "fry cooks" try not to go up in flames too

We had deep fried turkey last year. It was awesome! I hope my uncle makes it that way again.

Damn freaking straight!

NOTE TO SELF: consider scrapping plans to gather the family 'round and deep-fry the Turkey on the shag carpet in the living room this Thanksgiving.

A) The skin is crispy on the outside, not rubbery at all
B) It forces the juices to stay inside the turkey, making it moister and tastier
C) The peanut oil gives it some flavor
D) It's deep fried, woman! DEEP FRIED !!!
E) It's risky. And making things risky makes them better. Like you escaped with your life and you were rewarded with tasty turkey.




And once again, my family REFUSES to go with the fried turkey, even though we have a fryer. Goddamn families, man....

Since when is Thanksgiving about families? Screw'em. Fry your bird and bask in the juicy juiciness of all that is juicy.
