Dip the fry basket into the hot oil briefly prior to putting in the turkey. Helps to prevent the turkey skin from sticking to the basket when removing the bird.
Solid advice for sure. The skin not touching the sides makes a difference. I might also suggest doing a slightly smaller bird to make sure all skin is cooked well. Plus you could get two 15 pound birds and fry them up in less time than cooking one bird in the oven.
Next episode: “Hey guys it’s Esther... today we are going to check out my favorite oil.. peanut. On the one hand we have normal just.. Costco brand, but over here we have Planters Mutant peanut oil.”
Warren Lauzon You season the Protein to give flavor it. A turkey requires minimum 2 to 4 hours of prior seasoning especially salt for it to absorb the flavor into it.
@@warrenlauzon5315 that's what I was going to say. Why not add your seasoning directly into your oil and hope for the best. LoL This is not a cooking channel though, it's a kitchen gadget promotion channel.
2019 Update #1 Wet or dry brine you turkey #2 Dry and season #3 Inject the bird (must if you don’t brine) #4 Parts aren’t flimsy (6 years in) largest wing fryer in the world. #5 Don’t buy oil for $75.00
My parents have the older version of that fryer and it's great. For the fried turkey brine it, let it dry and then dry rub it. Use a remote probe thermometer and you can time it better. Leave it in the fryer for just a minute or two longer after it hits temp and it'll crisp up a bit more.
We’ve had ours for a year this is the second thanksgiving we’ve used it and love it! (Got it for $99 at Walmart it went on sale for $49 right after Christmas lol)
Great video of two delicious looking birds and comparison, just sad to see the thumbs down when she has done a great job and explained very well the differences. Thank You Esther for posting this video.
This is the 1st thing I actually have .. it's worth it.... it's like having a professional kitchen sized fryer in ur house... Try frying an entire potato 😍😍
*Turkey Brine* 3 gallon of water 3 cinnamon sticks 2 tbsp all spice A couple sprigs fresh rosemary Several leaves fresh sage Whole onion halved 3 celery sticks Half cup of salt Minors Sauteed Vegetable base 1 tbsp A bunch of honey (I use half a bottle the bottle has a net wt. 32OZ) About half a cup of Everglades seasoning *this is not my recipe all credit goes to the channel DeerMeatForDinner ruclips.net/video/OxXLzNlG1hM/видео.html
This fryer is great! Since I'm short, I do have to put the fryer on a low table or the floor/ground and stand on a step when lowering it in and removing it. Makes it much easier.
Light sprinkling of seasoning salt when you take it out would probably help. Kinda like sprinkling salt on fries after they take them out of the fryer.
Heads up that this draws around 14 amps when the heating element is on. I had to fry my turkey in the garage because the kitchen circuit couldn't handle it with any other stuff running, like a mixer. Just something you don't think about a lot.
Did my first deep fried turkey this past Thanksgiving. Turned out so good, feed 10 people, there was nothing left. About 2 do my second turkey in this thing in a couple of hours. Do not regret this purchase at all
I inject my turkey with some Italian sauces and rub the turkey with Italian spices. The one item I would say is spray that pan well before putting bird in it so it don't stick to it. 5-10 minutes to drain, 5 minutes to let stand on the serving platter.
She might have already brined it before adding the salt and pepper to the outside. A lot of people brine their turkeys and then add dry rub / seasonings to it afterwards.
I bought the Butterball XL Turkey Fryer about a year ago..I have completely forgot about it still being in the box, I haven't had the chance to use it yet but I will around Christmas time..I've had fried turkey a handful of times and prefer it over oven baked but hell, IT'S ALL GOOD!! LOL..
@@pysankar Yes. It has made our last two Thanksgiving turkeys, and a lot of others in between. We use it for fries, too. Keep the birds under 18 pounds if possible. If all they have are toms, try to get the smallest one, like 21 pounds is doable but takes too long or you'll have to refry it if it comes out raw. But yes, it's a good fryer!
I have this machine for a few years, it is not flimsy at all. It might give you that impression because it’s your first time using it and the basket moves when you lift it. i think it is better than the oven, and less time for cooking, great taste!
@@sundarpichai940 we've deep fried steaks a few times on our channel, and then we saw deermeatfordinner do a standing rib roast. The steaks tasted amazing, so I have to think that the roast would be the same.
I have been frying turkeys for 15 years and that is the preferred way my likes it. I bought one of theses a couple years ago and it’s been great. Nothing broken. You can even use it as a seafood boil, fish fryer hush puppies and fries. We going to do chicken wings next
I agree. The first time I had a fried turkey, I wanted to dislike it because I wanted to just argue that I roast my turkey perfectly every time. No, fried turkey is amazing. It really is like a huge chicken, but with the flavor of turkey.
that is if you can serve it up right away. My friends and I do 6 turkeys for an elder care home for Thanksgiving and 4 for our families. The turkey served up at the care home is very good but by the time we get home to our turkeys that have been sitting for a couple of hours, they are dry and tasteless. Still, we do it for the camaraderie and fellowship.
@@maddiejo85 that recipe is way too time consuming. Takes them 3 days to make a turkey??? Nah, just get a turkey and inject it with Tony Chachere's cajun injection marinade and fry it. Fried turkeys are so much better than oven roasted turkeys! You'll kick his birds ass if he isn't frying his.
I enjoyed your review and thought it was very honest. I have been frying turkeys probably 15 years, so if like that skin a little extra crispy keep it in about extra 10 mins don't work it will still be moist. You got to over season the turkey when frying it. I pat it dry and then take soften butter and rub and smear all on outside of bird, then what every dried seasons you like I use oinion and garlic powder and then lots of Cheyenne pepper. The bird is completely covered and red. Don't worry about the heat the heat will burn off but flavored is awesome. Try it this way you want be disappointed.
Best solution smoke a turkey it tastes so much better than roasting or frying and is honestly super easy just put it on there and check on it every half an hour to an hour. Yah it takes longer but it’s well worth it.
I have one and I love it. There are a few things i dont like though. 1 there isn't a temperature read out so you know what temp it is as it heats and reheats. 2 it's not great for batch cooking. We had a fish fry and I used it. The fish turned out great but it took so long to reheat which sucks. 3 large pot doesn't fit in the dishwasher. But I do love this fryer
Last year I made a Cajun fried turkey and it was amaz-balls! Brined it a few days before. The day before I dried it. Probably went through a roll of paper towels but then I did my dry rub. The next day the cooking day. I took the turkey out nice and early to get to room temperature and injected it with some unsalted butter and then fried that baby and it was perfection. It was so crispy and the meat was so tender and juicy. Highly recommended this fryer. I didn’t fry it inside the house. Did it outside because it’s still a massive deep fryer and as caution I rather have grease all over the backyard instead of my house. Also makes awesome crispy chicken wings. Good investment
Dude the best turkey I ever got is when my mom took a turkey to the Chinese place where she gets her Peking duck....they basically did the turkey the same way and it was amazing....with the dripping sauce...
Fried turkey just needs turkey wing gravy. You can make it ahead too. Roast 3 or 4 wings on the highest heat to brown well. Then make a 2qt batch of rich brown turkey stock, and you have some for gravy, some for making dressing.
The turkey turned out amazing, only thing was I filled the fryer to max line and I had a 14 lb turkey but it didn't submerge and the breast didn't brown how I like, I may add more oil... So no regrets
Thats a steal for something this huge. fitting up to 20lbs of food in it, its crazy. Small restaurants should be buying this than a commercial standard fryer. But if its only intended for home use,Its not gonna last long even in a cafe.
The issue is the recovery time if this unit will be a lot slower than a commercial fryer. Drop 5 lbs of frozen fried in this thing it's gonna cool waaay down
Make sure to take it out of the box and test it asap. Bought one from Walmart this year. Broken out of the box. Would not turn on. Likely the completely unneeded safety switch is defective. Spent quite a bit of time and effort trying to troubleshoot it. Everything in the area closed for Thanksgiving so no exchange possible and had to put it in the oven. Thanks Masterbuilt.
There is a way to keep the breast meat from drying out and also helping to improve flavor: before carving, allow the turkey to rest for several hours after cooking. It dries out because the juices are hot and forced closer to the meat's surface because of increased pressure from the heat. The crust that's developed on the exterior as a result of cooking as well as the skin both act as a seal, which retains the juices despite the bird's internal heat. When you cut into a hot bird, you break this seal and the juices will more readily run out. Hot juices may also more readily evaporate into the air, away from the meat. You must permit sufficient time for the juices to cool and settle back into the meat. Depending on the weight of the bird, this can take a few hours; at least almost as long as it would take to roast it in an oven. Don't worry about it getting cold when you let it rest for a few hours; it will still be hot when you cut into it. You just don't want it to be so hot that you wind up losing too much of the juices. Resting time is just as important as cooking time. There will be a big difference in taste and texture just from sufficient resting alone.
You should try out the Char Broil Big Easy (I think they have an update version now) its an “oil less fryer” - essentially just a big roaster, but the turkey taste exactly like it would deep fried
I just par boil mine in really well salted water the night before, dry it off an hour or so (weight dependent) and coat with a brushing of canola oil and finish it in the oven. It seasons the meat beautifully and you get the most fantastically crispy skin. Oh, and you can let the boil water cool and skim off the fat from the bird for adding to the drippings in the roasting pan after for a gravy.
Brining the turkey before the fry would solve the salt/ flavor penetration issue. As for the crispy skin, either leave it in there for a bit longer, or as long as its safe, you could even turn the heat up and place the turkey back in for a flash fry.
Would have liked to see you empty the fryer and what you do with the oil, just to see. That's really the big issue with home deep fryers, especially one that big.
I have this exact fryer and have used it 2 or 3 years running. It is fantastic. The key to frying a turkey is to brine it for a full day before frying. Just make sure you dry it thoroughly before frying. I keep a cooler in the garage that I only use for brining my bird every year.
I'm always amazed at the comments on these videos talking about the techniques not used. Did they brine the bird? No- they probably shot 3-6 of these in the same day with wardrobe changes and they aren't giving a recipe for the tastiest bird, they wanted to compare fried to roasted in the least amount of time possible so they can move on to testing the next thing.
Brine your turkey and they are never dry. We had a turkey catch on fire in the grill because someone forgot a drip pan. All the skin burned - the bone at the end of the leg fell off - it was that burnt. Carved it up and once you got past the 1/4" on the outside, it was the best turkey we ever had! Moist and smokey!! Whole fried fish in that fryer!
I'm getting three for concessions. Fries Chicken tenders And corn dogs Cleaner, easier to drain the oil after use, and safer than a traditional deep fryer. Best of all, more oil means temp would be more consistent
Esther you are great! I really enjoy your videos, you need to introduce yourself at the beginning of the video, took me 3 videos to figure out your name lol. I'm looking forward to new gadgets videos! (I totally watched these out of order)
You can make 20 pounds of fries AT ONCE. I'm sold.

@@kenyatasims6991 yeah the thing works great going to use it again this year .

An extra 20 minutes of cooking time in the fryer would have gotten you the crispier skin you wanted. It did say 3 - 4 minutes per pound.
You're 100 percent right.
Would have also made it more dry
Annemiek De Haan You’re incorrect.
@@annemiekdehaan1 An extra 20 minutes would not have dried out that turkey.
Eater white people and their turkey. So overrated.
These are the bomb for frying wings for a party! Easily cooks 20-30 wings per!
You don’t season a turkey one minute before cooking it no matter what method of cooking one applies!!
Exactly. The best comment
And why would you season it before dropping it into 3 gallons of oil? To season the oil?
Warren Lauzon You season the Protein to give flavor it. A turkey requires minimum 2 to 4 hours of prior seasoning especially salt for it to absorb the flavor into it.

Inject your seasonings if you're gonna fry a Turkey. Season the outside is just for flavoring of the skin. I got one of these and I love it.

If you wanted the salt to "penetrate" you should have dry brined it in the refrigerator for a while before cooking. I thought everyone knew that
There is a way to keep the breast meat from drying out and also helping to improve flavor: before carving, allow the turkey to rest for several hours after cooking.
It dries out because the juices are hot and forced closer to the meat's surface because of increased pressure from the heat.

You must permit sufficient time for the juices to cool and settle back into the meat. Depending on the weight of the bird, this can take a few hours; at least almost as long as it would take to roast it in an oven.
Don't worry about it getting cold when you let it rest for a few hours; it will still be hot when you cut into it. You just don't want it to be so hot that you wind up losing too much of the juices.
Resting time is just as important as cooking time. There will be a big difference in taste and texture just from sufficient resting alone.

best way to season a deep fried turkey? dry brine and/or flavored butter to apply to skin after it's fried
I have this exact fryer and have used it 2 or 3 years running. It is fantastic. The key to frying a turkey is to brine it for a full day before frying. Just make sure you dry it thoroughly before frying. I keep a cooler in the garage that I only use for brining my bird every year.
Great tip...thanks!
I wonder how the pepper you cracked on top tastes after an hour of frying...
The Char-Broil Big Easy, is a great machine. No oil required, no worries about burning down your house. Win win👍😀👍
Injecting the deep fried turkey with the a marinade of your choice makes it even better.
You should try pressure cooking a turkey. I did it last year and my turkey was delicious!
I'm always amazed at the comments on these videos talking about the techniques not used. Did they brine the bird? No- they probably shot 3-6 of these in the same day with wardrobe changes and they aren't giving a recipe for the tastiest bird, they wanted to compare fried to roasted in the least amount of time possible so they can move on to testing the next thing.
You should try the greaseless fryer. It give you the time savings and juiciness of the fryer and the pan drippings!! We eat one every year
Brine your turkey and they are never dry. We had a turkey catch on fire in the grill because someone forgot a drip pan. All the skin burned - the bone at the end of the leg fell off - it was that burnt. Carved it up and once you got past the 1/4" on the outside, it was the best turkey we ever had! Moist and smokey!!
Whole fried fish in that fryer!
All that salt and that little bit of pepper . lmfao trippin
I wanna slap her with a box of Sazon Goya! 😂
They are comparing cooking methods people. If they did special seasonings for each how would you know what exact effect the cooking had
@@DimT670 They were not comparing cooking methods, they were making a canola oil sales pitch.
Brilliant name!
I love smoked turkey legs, they are tops!
I'm getting three for concessions.
Fries
Chicken tenders
And corn dogs
Cleaner, easier to drain the oil after use, and safer than a traditional deep fryer.
Best of all, more oil means temp would be more consistent
Awesome video
Esther you are great! I really enjoy your videos, you need to introduce yourself at the beginning of the video, took me 3 videos to figure out your name lol. I'm looking forward to new gadgets videos! (I totally watched these out of order)
