I have come back to watch this video every thanksgiving for the last 3 years and all three of my turkeys have been perfect. This video is the best guide on TH-cam by far.
Ive been frying for 3 years now. I watch this video as a refresher course every time. This Dude is a Legend! Turns out sooooo much better than the oven! Thanks again!
I tried this last year for the first time on thanksgiving. I will never cook Turkey any other way ever again, this was amazing! Can’t wait to do it again tomorrow!
I have been frying a turkey every year for at least 20 years and this is the absolute best video I have ever seen. This is the best video for a first timer and veteran to go by. I saw this last year and went from my normal routine to this. It just made since! I am very impressed! This guy is spot on how to do it. if you follow his instruction to a tee you will be the love of your Thanksgiving dinner. From the way he starts the burner to the temp, to how you put it in. Great job brother. Oh and no I do not know Jeven nor ever met him. I live in Arkansas and I BBQ/cook all the time. Pay attention to the oil temp and the temp of the turkey. although I pull the turkey out at 165 to 170 deg. (must be the difference in climate) and let it rest for at least 20 to 30 minutes. Dang good turkey. if you slice the turkey before you let it rest (covered with foil) it will be dry within 5 or 10 minutes. so yes let it rest (set). Thank you brother...

Get a 1 gallon milk jug of water and simulate the amount of oil you'll need with water... see how many gallons of water it takes to get a submerged turkey. Take the turkey back out and thoroughly dry the turkey and the pot... then use the same amount of oil to cook the turkey. He said he doesn't do this because he's been doing it so long, but I think its useful for someone who doesn't do it very often. His frying pot might be a different brand or size than yours and you might need a different amount than what he used here. Better safe than sorry.
Great video. I recommend to anyone that wants to fry a turkey harbor freight welding gloves are cheap $6.99pr and work great. Also pickup a Large one gallon funnel $2.99 to transfer your oil back into the container once it cools! **Also if you want to prolong your peanut oil fry up some fresh cut fries . The potatoes clean the oil very well. I’ve gotten up to 6 birds with fresh cut fries following in the oil!
I've been frying birds ever since a Navy co-worker did it for a holiday party at work in Florida. One thing I would recommend is having a fire extinguisher nearby. The other is to never leave it alone. Heard way too many stories of burned down garages (yes, I've done it in a garage a few times) and yards. The water measurement method for how much oil works great, but like you said early in the video, make sure the pot is dry as a bone before the oil goes in. I usually do the water thing the day before. Then I season/brine the bird overnight.
I loaned my nephew my turkey fryer this year. I'm goin to oven it. Let him enjoy with his wife and friends. He will be hooked. It's soo much easier than than cokinmg a turkey in the house aside of the clean up. lol
Pull it at 155F, the carry over temperature, which he mentions at the end, will finish cooking the bird! Overcooking will cause it to be dry. Well for a deep fried turkey.
Yeah that was my only gripe about the video pulling at 180 it would continue to cook well past 190. I fried my second turkey last night and pulled it at 155, it continued to cook to 165. It turned out juicy and delicious. Beside that this is a great instructional video. I suggest using the water method to determine oil everytime. If you keep the turkey wrapped while doing this it won’t take on anymore water before frying.
I’m going to start by saying that I’ve been deep frying turkey for well over 20 years, and you; sir, are a complete maniac. You’re way closer to those petroleum based tabes and wood fence than I would ever be, and I don’t see a fire extinguisher anywhere in your setup. If you were to use the water submerged method to measure the amount of oil you need, I think you’d find that you only need one container of peanut oil. I personally have a 13 pound cutoff for the size of the turkey I’m going to deep fry. Uses less oil. Easier to manage. I also have always used the Butterball prescribed method for deep frying a turkey and heat the oil to 375 degrees F. Yours look good, and as long as you get a good core temperature, good on you.
I keep seeing people trying to deep fry a turkey and failing. After so many times, I had to see if there was a right way of doing it. Thx for the video
At around 9:22 you can see a flicker of the flame on the burner, so that means that he did not turn OFF the propane before removing the turkey from the pot, another safety issue !!! 😛😛
Good video, but man you gave me some pulmonary trouble when you were dripping the oil back into the pot with the flame still on. Also it seemed like you had a really roiling boil of the oil because the turkey wasn't dry when you put it in. Thanks for the info, and those sunglasses are dope!
dude knows what he's doing. Fried my first last week (test run for Thanksgiving). And i basically just did what was done in this video. Cash money! Make sure it is dry and thawed. Inject it the night before. I didn't bother measuring either. The frier can handle an 18 pounder, so i just went to the fill line with my 15 pound bird. Had to add a little oil TBH. I fried one and someone else baked one the traditional way. I actually ended up slightly over cooking the thing. It was still amazing. There was nothing left of it. The second bird which was roasted the traditional way had plenty left over.
Heat the oil guys to 375, turn it off completely, lower the turkey in slowly, the temp will go down closer to 300 - 325, then turn it on it's pretty safe then. A good way to measure it since you'll wash your pot beforehand anyway is to put the turkey left in its plastic wrapper and fill the pot with cold water till it's just about covered, pull the turkey out and use your thermometer to mark the height of the water then you can clean and dry the pot and you didnt add any extra water to the Turkey.
Awesome video, I watch it every year before deep frying my turkey. I do get irritated with some of the Karen comments. Can’t please everyone. Don’t agree, don’t watch. Kudos.
How to deep fry a turkey? One of the most important questions, how much oil to use, and your answer is "experience"? lol nice, really helping people out a lot. Step one, buy turkey. Step two, make sure it's level, step three, hell if I know, good luck!
Jose Cantu absolutely water check with turkey still in package is key. Safest and easiest way not only for boil over but to eliminate using extra oil. His way is counteracting his “proper” way to deep fry a turkey.
From all others I've seen I think this one is the best one for safety tips and got to admit takes his time explaining not like others that are just in a rush and throw that suckered in! Lol Happy holidays been doing these steps since before Covid and when you do take time to put your spices and inject it, Dannnnng! Really good!! This guy is invited to my CARNE ASADA!! LOL 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
We followed your instructions to a T. Our turkey came out so good we're doing it every year now. Good advice on the safety tips by the way. It helped bring down the anxiety ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
OH My My My...…. I watched this video 3 times, paused, press play, paused again press play. This guy right her know what the hell he doing,. He peaks very well providing do's and don'ts straight to the point!! My turkey was delicious and I didn't have any accidents with fire or grease.
Im sure this questions been asked but what’s a good economical frying setup? Doing my first time fried turkey this year. This video helps especially the comments. Thanks everyone
Scrolling through the comments looking for the same info. My buddy bought a kit on special from Home Depot that included everything, including the oil. Worked pretty good and the Turkey come out great.
This video is gonna help so much because my dad use to always cook fried Turkey in thanks giving and my dad passed away and I’m gonna do it for the first time I’m 17 so I hope the turkey will be good and once again thanks for the vid
I deep fry every thankfornuthing and Christmas in the northeast. Today [Thanksgiving] it's cold rainy and windy . Its going to be a challenge but I have done it before in a blizzard. With wind driven snow. Deep frying is for real men only .
Fryer oil expands when heated and level raises from that and cook off grease from the bird.

Looking goid. Me and daughter traditionaly in turkey day make chicken and veggie tamales as well of pork 😋 then we share them at relatives or friends whom Invites us for turkey feast. Happy thanks giving...
Dude! I love your video but you HAVE to turn the burner off when you are putting the bird in - once the bird is in re-light the burner. Just on the off chance that you get an oil splash outside of the pot.....if there is no flame, there is no fire
Normally I turn the gas off while putting the turkey in, after it calms down a bit then I tirar the gas back on. Also to cook at 350 it is a good idea to heat the oils to 375 before put the turkey in since it will cool the oil down a bit.

racist country
So I am trying to fry a turkey and first time doing this, how much of oil one can put in the pot was never mentioned. Just be careful? Hmmm
@@paulson9616 he said about 3.5 gallons I believe. And that the jugs come in 3 gallon size, so you have to buy 2 jugs
So you wrap it in foil after or no foil to let it rest?
Get a 1 gallon milk jug of water and simulate the amount of oil you'll need with water... see how many gallons of water it takes to get a submerged turkey. Take the turkey back out and thoroughly dry the turkey and the pot... then use the same amount of oil to cook the turkey.

His frying pot might be a different brand or size than yours and you might need a different amount than what he used here. Better safe than sorry.
I always turn flame off until the bird is totally covered so in case the oil spits up over the pot it doesn't hit the flame and start a fire.
That’s why you should know your oil level & put turkey in slow & you won’t have that problem duuuh.
Smart man
@@TheMan-qv1bl duuuuuuuuuuuh
@@TheMan-qv1bl you still always turn the burner off
@@TheMan-qv1bl This is a how to video. Showing first time turkey fryers bad habits by not turning off fire is dumb.
My dad passed last year. This is my first time doing this myself and this video was very helpful. Thanks!
From frying a turkey?
he sure was a fryer
good luck on your now second turkey! hope everything came out great! going to be doing it for my first time without my dad this year as well.

Third year coming back to watch again before I get everything prepped. You helped me my first year. You are my deep fry turkey father
Here I am again. Watching your video once a year is my tradition.
Thanks for sharing the your process. I comeback every year and every year my family loves the Turkey cause of these instructions. 🙏🙌
Uncle Rico! Throw a football for us
How much you wanna bet I could throw a Turkey over them mountains?
Bert Bargo Lol Nice
LMAO. 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍
Funny I thought he was a steak guy
"Hey look it's uncle Ricos time machine!"
😐hold on I forgot to put in the crystals!
🤣
From video editing tips to deep frying turkey how-to’s….can’t beat Jeven Dovey’s channel 😅🤩
You should always turn your burner off before lowering the turkey in oil. Helpful hint. Everything else was great advice.
Is your reasoning for that because if it were to spill over you wouldn’t want the flame to get hit with oil? If not what is it ? Lol
@@bc5208yes but then if that happens and the flame made it to the top of the container and ignited the entire pot. game over
Exactly
I might recommend lowering it instead of turning it off, if off might find yourself in the fight of your life to get it back to the 325 when back on
Sir....I check in every year now for three years in a row. Every year by Turkey is the hit of the party. Best to you and yours.
I loaned my nephew my turkey fryer this year. I'm goin to oven it. Let him enjoy with his wife and friends. He will be hooked. It's soo much easier than than cokinmg a turkey in the house aside of the clean up. lol
Pull it at 155F, the carry over temperature, which he mentions at the end, will finish cooking the bird! Overcooking will cause it to be dry. Well for a deep fried turkey.
Agreed 180 degrees is too hot internally unless you like eating Turkey powder.
So true so very true!

Best turkey frying video on TH-cam!! 🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃
At around 9:22 you can see a flicker of the flame on the burner, so that means that he did not turn OFF the propane before removing the turkey from the pot, another safety issue !!! 😛😛
You are right, this is a HUGE SAFETY ISSUE….. just watch some of the older videos of FIRES and they explain, flame off when going in and out of pot!
Hahahahha uncle rico😂😂😂

I can sling a pigskin a quarter mile
Only if coach kept him in. Could have won state.

Like your style Awesome!!👍
What an awesome video! Thanks for the info and very well done!!!!!
You know that turkey will be perfection when dude has the dad force 1s on 😂
I like to dry my turkey out in the fridge a few days on a rack to get some of the excess water out . For a crisper skin and less over flow.
Thank you sir, my turkey was a hit.
Turn the flame off brother when your putting your Turkey. You had oil landing on your flame at 7:24
Thanks
thank you
Looks great thank you buddy

“What do you tell beginners”
“Be careful”
….. 🤦♂️ what an expert.
GREAT TUTORIAL!!
Thanks man straight to the point been wanting to do this for a while finally got a fryer on sale at cabelas did my first one Xmas eve 2023! Went great
Normally I turn the gas off while putting the turkey in, after it calms down a bit then I tirar the gas back on.
Also to cook at 350 it is a good idea to heat the oils to 375 before put the turkey in since it will cool the oil down a bit.
Thanks for the guidance
Thank you nice video. And they do sell 1 gallon peanut oil
Thank! Good video, turkey came out perfectly! Right on Brother
Great video bro!
