Please, please be very careful if you plan to fry a turkey this year. It's one of the most dangerous things you can do.
- Stay well away (many yards) from the house or anything that can catch fire (Decks, Trees, Sheds),
- Don't overfill the pot,
- Make sure the turkey is COMPLETELY THAWED and
- Have a fire extinguisher with you rated for grease fires (water from the hose makes a grease fire worse).
This is no joke folks.
Stay safe. Happy Thanksgiving.
