Expand Yeah, if you get 2 identical turkeys one can be the bathtub turkey and the other can be the one you fry. Personally I dont care either way since I'm the one bathing with the turkey, so I know everything is clean. 1

Orlando Buffalo Posted November 27, 2019 Posted November 27, 2019 I used to work in insurance and there were every year calls from people setting the house on fire. Please be safe and do not use a frozen turkey or too much oil

Expand If you're going to use a rub - put it under the skin. You can get to the meat pretty easily in a turkey. Brining is really easy. Do it overnight tonight. It'll be ready tomorrow in time for your rocket-inspired deep-fry lift-off. Alton's brining and deep frying instructions

Subtract your volume when you and the turkey get in the water, and now you know how much oil to use. Expand I normally just use my old toaster which is about the same size and weight of a turkey.
