\"Turkey<\/a><\/p>\n

Thanksgiving morning began with an improving forecast. There was still a small chance of showers, but it was a smaller chance and for later in the day. Shortly after noon, I set up the fryer. The plan was to deep fry 2 turkeys. One for dinner that day and one we were splitting with my bother-in-law so we would both have some leftovers. My brother-in-law was concerned about missing out on the turkey if it rained and was willing to stand over the fryer with an umbrella to protect it from the rain.
\n\"Cooking<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Almost<\/a>At 12:30 the first turkey went into the oil. You can see the steam rising from the pot. At 1:20 it was done and out of the oil.\u00c2\u00a0 Gave it 30 minutes to rest and than divided it in two.\u00c2\u00a0 Took off the wings and legs and split the breast.\u00c2\u00a0 Packed it up and made a turkey delivery to my brother-in-law and dropped our package off at home.\u00c2\u00a0 Back to my Mom’s for turkey number two. \u00c2\u00a0 The second went in to the oil at around 3:00 PM and 45 minutes later it too was done.\u00c2\u00a0 Let this one rest for 20 minutes before slicing it up.<\/p>\n

The turkey was golden brown and juicy as expected. There was not much left when the table cleared but since the Boy Scout motto is “Be Prepared;” we’ll be eating turkey for the next couple of days.<\/p>\n

\"Deep<\/a><\/p>\n

If you have the space, and exercise reasonable care, you’ll have a great turkey.\u00c2\u00a0 Let the oil reach 370 degrees and keep the oil above 350-360 degrees and it will be moist and not greasy.\u00c2\u00a0 I find it takes about 3 1\/2 minutes per pound, about 50 minutes for a 14 pound turkey.\u00c2\u00a0 The juices should run clear, when it is cut.<\/p>\n

Try it you’ll\u00c2\u00a0 like it!!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
