Don't Burn the Bird!!!!

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and we know how tasty a deep-fried turkey can be! Doing it wrong though can wreak havoc on your tasty diner. I have some helpful tips to ensure your turkey and home don’t end up in flames!  

First and foremost, make sure your frying space is no less than 10 feet from your home or other structures. Also ensure that your area is flat and there is no risk of knocking over the fryer.

Next, make sure your bird is fully thawed and dry, extra water and moisture can cause the oil to bubble over and cause a fire.

Finally make sure you always have a fire extinguisher handy just in case and never leave the bird unattended.
