Thanksgiving Weather Watch Begins
The weather watch for Thanksgiving Day here in NYC begins. A recent tradition has been the having one or more deep fried turkeys as part of the family Thanksgiving Feast.
The Cajun method of deep frying a whole turkey produces a moist, flavorful bird with a deliciously seasoned crispy skin. The finished product is ready in a fraction of the time that it takes to cook a traditional roasted turkey.
It really does take just a fraction of the time (about 3-4 minutes per pound) and is the juiciest turkey you will ever have. I’ve cooked a couple of dozen turkeys over the last 5 years and they are the best.
Of course Deep frying a turkey on the typical setup requires open flame and a large pot of hot oil. Common Sense and a degree of care are required.
We now watch the weather and the forecast for Thanksgiving. As we all know, oil and water do not mix; and the forecast for Thursday is for showers.
Can we get the turkeys cooked between the raindrops?
