Crispy Country Fried Turkey

Turkey fryers are really popular these days 'cause they produce a moist and delicious turkey in a much shorter period of time than the traditional roasting. Try our Crispy Country Fried Turkey and you'll see for yourself!

Notes



  • To measure amount of oil needed to fry turkey, place turkey in fryer, add water to top of turkey, remove turkey and water line will show how much oil will be needed to fry your turkey. Empty water, dry pot, and fill to line with oil. Adding too much oil is a fire hazard. The pot should never be more than 3/4 full or oil could overflow when turkey is lowered into the oil. 

     


  • Always follow cooking instructions that come with your fryer.

     


  • Make your Thanksgiving dinner complete with a side dish potato recipe like our Sweet Potato Casserole.
