@@It-b-Blair I live in NY and there’s been several house/ yard fires in my county that fire departments had to fight because amateurs tried to deep fry their Thanksgiving turkey.

Thank you, Malcom! Last week when I saw this video I knew I had to try it for my work's potluck today. I've smoked turkeys in the past but have never deep fried them. I made two smok-a-fried turkeys today for the potluck and everyone absolutely loved them. Thanks for the inspiration and keep cookin'!
Malcom, you take BBQ to the limit! I've done the brine and the smoke but never have I thought about a deep fry as a finish . I can't stop thinking about this. I'm going to have to try it. I just don't think my wife will trust me with a turkey, I might try a chicken first. Thank you Malcom , you're the man!
I did a couple chickens on the smoker two weeks ago for practice. My wife picked up a Turkey for me to smoke this Sunday to perfect. Now he adds a deep fryer to finish the turkey off and I am back and square one.
@@garywilliams7484 Lol, I know what you mean! The deep fry finish for such a short time and the extra amount of work to achieve that perfection has my brain in a knot. I guess I'm going to drink more beer till I can convince myself that level of BBQ perfection comes with a price.
@@Robalo-2660 I am struggling to justify the added cost just to make the skin a little more crispy. I can add a couple of logs to bump up the heat in my smoker for the last hour and get great skin.
@@garywilliams7484 Your right, that is a lot of cost to just get a crispy skin. But like Malcom said, you can reuse that oil. I typically fry a couple of turkeys for family and friends and then I use the oil for the last time on Rivalry Saturday to deep fry Buffalo chickens and have a watch party for all the great college games that day. So I use that oil on at least 3-4 turkeys and a couple of chickens, getting my moneys worth out the oil. And something about a smo-fried turkey sets it apart from a plain ol' smoked turkey.
Let me tell you something Malcolm, I have been watching your videos for a long time now. You have such great recipes and we all know your food tastes good, you can't trust a skinny cook. This video is so great that I tried it yesterday and you know what? My kids didn't like the taste of just plain cooked turkey but when I gave them this, they asked for seconds and wanted more a few hours later. Thank you for your videos and the awesome camera work from the wife. Thank you again
Malcolm, buddy... That looks outstanding! I've got a 19 lb bird that I'm going to do on Thanksgiving. I don't have a Treager, so I'm going to try and do it on my offset stick burner, and then drop that baby in the oil. I can't wait!!
This looks so great, amazing! Thank you for the video, great content! Keep the grind going my friend, your videos are amazing, I would love to see some more shorts for sure though please you’re able to 🙏🙏💪💪🫶
This is quite literally the best turkey I have ever tasted. Made a trial run version before Thanksgiving and it was the tastiest turkey anyone at dinner had ever had.
Love your videos! I'm cooking my bird this year using this method! I also picked up some of your Killer Hog seasoning from Walmart (Phoenix, AZ), I'm looking forward to trying it out! Thanks for the videos!
Did one of these last month for a friend’s party. Fantastic way to do a bird. Also, good call on seasoning after pulling from the oil! Need to remember that trick.
“Safety crocs ain’t workin’!” OMG!!! The funniest thing on RUclips this year. That’s was classic. Malcolm…you need to come to the SF Bay Area (Fremont, CA) for an in person demo. You rawk! Continued good health and success.
Today finally bought some seasoning of yours that my Walmart finally placed on their shelves. after watching you for years. Your AP seasoning and your BBQ rub. Excellent taste. 5☆s!
Did this last year by accident (had a grease fire and had to get the turkey out FAST.) We had the fryer going for the other turkeys and so we just finished mine off in it and it came out incredible. Everyone loved it.
Been Smoking then Frying my Turkeys for years. That's the "ONLY" Turkey my Family and Friends want. Thanks for sharing with others. Happy Thanksgiving from Cut and Shoot, Texas
Malcom, thank you, thank you, thank you. Yesterday I made two turkeys following your recipe including purchasing all the ingredients from your website. Many of my guests said that it was the best turkey that they ever had. I have to admit it was the best that I ever had. It was amazing.
I had issues with my fryer burner this thanksgiving with 2 turkeys to cook. Put the first one in and the oil temp was not recovering. With time running out with family on the way, I fired up my pit and thru the first bird in it to finish. Dropped the second bird in the fryer to get it going. Ended up frying both birds to half way done and finished off in the pit. They came out AWESOME!!! Family said that was my best ones yet. I highly recommend this procedure.
Dammit why you doing this to me son. I can taste it all the way from here in Texas. Love the demonstration on how to bbq right. Happy Thanksgiving Malcom
smoking a turkey for my gf family for the first time. just watched your 9 year old video and now gonna watch this. should have known you would be on it!
Malcom this is an awesome video! My plan is to brine, smoked, and deep fry a turkey breast this years. I may add some turkey legs as well but I don't want to do a whole turkey. Thank you for the great videos you always post!
OMG 😳 I legit JUST typed in the yt search engine 3 days ago: "smoked and fried meats" and of ALL ppl I get to watch one of my fave RUclipsrs shed light on this for me!!! 🙌🏽 You don't even know how geeked I am! Tfs!!! *Pulls out pen and pad
Im not sure if you think this or not, but you a funny guy. I sit here, drink my beers, and watch your videos. Love your videos and trying your recipes. ...
Nice glad someone had the same idea.. I’ve been smoke frying my turkey twice a year for 5 years now.. the issue I had was the visual aspect after it’s fried because how dark it got but the flavor is amazing and juicy.
Come on man! You playing with all my emotions now. I heard about this on your podcast and I had to check it out! Beautiful cook brother. Appreciate what you do!
I did this as a last result last year. The smoked turkey wasn’t ready my fire just went out on the smoker and everyone was showing up. I panicked and pulled out the electric fryer. Got it up to temp and dropped it. Everyone loved it!
First thing I thought when I saw the crocs was you should of had em in 4wd in case you had to get to skidaddlin on outta there! Looks awesome Malcom thanks for another good one.
So I followed this to A T. It came out fantastic. Tho I had a issue with the burner for the oil, char broil is not a good brand, took a hr to heat oil to 350° and I had to put a torch on it. First time using it, and it's about 27° outside. Took about 7 mins. to hit 165° with a torch on it. But the result was amazing. From the brine, smoking, too deep fry. WOW! I used apple wood. Due too pecan shortage. This bird has so many flavors. Thank you! My family enjoyed it. Best ever Turkey!
I have thought about doing this for years but always too scared I'd mess up the bird and end up just deep frying instead. Thanks Malcom, I think this will be the year.
The Battle for the Soul of Thanksgiving (Smoked vs Deep-Fried) has just reached its only logical armistice...
As a northerner, I feel I missed out big time 😢 we only baked ours….
There are people as we speak... waiting on turkey friers from amazon..

A smoked, deep fried turkey video to start November solidifies why Malcom is that dude! His own ab libs during the cooking is hilarious too! 😂😂
This guy has BEEN that dude for a long time when it comes to BBQ
Big Malcolm love this channel
This right here is some next level turkey. Never thought to smoke it and then fry it. I think this is a game changer.

I tried this turkey last Sunday. And my family loved. They have brought turkeys for thanksgiving
You never disappoint! And I wouldn’t compare your food to any fast food place! When I bbq I use a lot of your recipes thank you!
"Popeye's aint got nothing on me y'all!" is my quote of the year. And you are right. Love your food. Love your style. Love your channel.
Smoked n fried is the way to go. Flavor and color always on point
watching these videos at work is my window to paradise.

I bow to you sir, what an amazing idea! To top it off, I had no idea you could use the probe in the hot oil!!! THANK YOU!
Malcom--great job as always! Still laughing, though..."Whew--safety Croc ain't working!" 😂
This looks so great, amazing! Thank you for the video, great content! Keep the grind going my friend, your videos are amazing, I would love to see some more shorts for sure though please you’re able to 🙏🙏💪💪🫶

I always deep fry my turkey for the holidays and it comes out beautiful! This is another way to get even more flavor into that dude, so I'm trying it!
This is quite literally the best turkey I have ever tasted. Made a trial run version before Thanksgiving and it was the tastiest turkey anyone at dinner had ever had.
Malcolm you are legend.. I bet those turkeys are just lining up to be on your show.
Deeeeeelicious
Malcom. My family is cooking our turkey on the grill this year thanks to your videos.

HUGE FAN! You gave me the knowledge and inspiration to start smoking! love your killer hogs rub!!!! all the way out from San Jose CA
Did one of these last month for a friend’s party. Fantastic way to do a bird.

Mouth watering so much I think that Thanksgiving is coming early this year!! Thanks Malcom.
That looks sooo freaking delicious 🤤

I'm doing this. Thanks for the idea brother
Mr. Malcom you got it going on! Do you think up all these recipes, GOOD, GOOD, GOOD.
I've been doing this for years. It's the ultimate turkey. Cool to see you doing it now.
What temp do you pull turkey out from smoker
@@LVGRCCrawlers I don't pull at a temp. I smoke for 2-2 1/2 hours at 275. Then fryer. I check temp until it's done.
Bro you just keep kicking it up, I’m dying 😂😂
I’m inspired by your old Smoked Turkey video. Looking to give it a go this year!
absolutely awesome! I love a great experiment! Love the videos Malcolm! I will most certainly have to try this!
A national treasure, Malcom Reed.
dude. that looks so flippen good
Nice glad someone had the same idea.. I’ve been smoke frying my turkey twice a year for 5 years now.. the issue I had was the visual aspect after it’s fried because how dark it got but the flavor is amazing and juicy.
Now I gotta get a deep fryer. I didn't think anything could beat a smoked turkey. Great video, thanks.
I love this channel great job !
Dad gum it I love Malcom’s recipes….happy thanksgiving big dawg
Come on man! You playing with all my emotions now. I heard about this on your podcast and I had to check it out! Beautiful cook brother. Appreciate what you do!
Malcom = Legend.
Happy Thanksgiving Malcolm.
I do this all the time, only difference is I use the Big easy oil less turkey fryer. Wonderful! it also allows me to shoot it up with marinade!
I always enjoy Malcoms' videos - yummy!
Deep fried turkey sounds good
I did a few like this some years back and it was a hit!!
I did this as a last result last year. The smoked turkey wasn’t ready my fire just went out on the smoker and everyone was showing up. I panicked and pulled out the electric fryer. Got it up to temp and dropped it. Everyone loved it!
Thanks Malcolm!
Ah yes its that time of the year again, the however malcom makes his turkey we will to
First thing I thought when I saw the crocs was you should of had em in 4wd in case you had to get to skidaddlin on outta there! Looks awesome Malcom thanks for another good one.
Mmm to smoke a fried turkey or fry a smoke turkey that is the qestion..question... Happy Thanksgiving either way👍👍🍻
Thanks u for the knowledge big guys
This experience was awesome!
I’ve been doing this for years. The only way to do a turkey!
Legend says that there are supposed to be blooper reels.... but he never messes up...

Did that about 2 years ago and it was the best turkey I've cooked
I have thought about doing this for years but always too scared I'd mess up the bird and end up just deep frying instead. Thanks Malcom, I think this will be the year.
