Butterball Turkey Fryer Review!!

 Butterball Turkey Fryer

Turkey 

 This fryer is just awesome!! It works so well and instead of cooking your turkey for hours in the oven, my turkey was done in 48

minutes and probably should have taken him out in 43 minutes. Amazing. Tender, moist, delicious!! Has lots of safety features and is very easy to work. Second year I have used it. You can also make lots of other things in it also.

Not only can it fry a turkey to juicy perfection, it can fry, steam, or boil many of your other favorite foods as well.  -from hot wings and fried fish to corndogs and fries for the kids. You can also fill the fryer with water to steam or even boil your favorite dish. Other options include inviting the whole family over for a large low-country boil, steaming fresh crab legs for two, or even trying your hand at frying desserts like doughnuts, apple turnovers, and fried ice cream.

Safely remove oil by draining it from here.

This goes on the drain to make it really easy to drain

You can use oil 5 or 6 more times so drain right back into container it came out of. 

Your cord fits in here also for storage

This is all one piece and has to be put in 

right for it to work at all

It slides down the front and right into the bottom

It is best to use peanut oil

For the turkey, it takes 2 gallons. Fill only 

to bottom of max line. Never above. 

Turn to 375 degrees

Heat oil. Takes about 25 minutes to bring it to 375 degrees.

Light will come on when temperature is ready

Open turkey

Remove neck for one end

Remove giblets from other end

  Put in warm bath for at least 30 minutes to bring whole turkey to 

same temperature. It also ensures there is no ice deep inside. 

Remove from water and pat dry with paper towels.

I like to use Tony Chachere's Creole Style Butter marinade.

I didn't think I would like it because I don't like anything spicy

 but this stuff gives great flavor without the spice. Yum!!

 It also come with the needle to fill the turkey with. 

Put about a third of this in one spot and move to another.

 I use alot of this. 

When one side is finished, turn him over and do the other side. 

Be sure and get the wings, thighs, and legs.

Don, my assistant to drop the turkey in the oil

Really plumped my bird full

Put turkey in basket, breast side UP

Set basket in hooks before you drop him in.

This is the MOST IMPORTANT part. 

Lower your turkey VERY VERY SLOWLY into the oil. 

It will keep down the splash.  You should wear gloves to do this. We use the silicone gloves as the splash can't get through them.

When time is up, take your turkey out

with the hook that comes with the fryer. 

Be sure and tilt your bird both directions

 to let the oil pour out of the inside.

Set basket in hooks on side and let turkey rest for about 15 minutes. 

Enjoy!!

The turkey comes out very moist and tender. Great taste. If your oil is at right temperature when you drop turkey, the oil does not soak into the turkey.  Yum! Yum! Yum!
