Make sure your turkey is fully frozen before dropping it in the fryer. Also, make sure the gas is turned all the way up and you have an awning above you to prevent tragedy

OK I watched the whole thing.

I implicitly trust* this guy's girth, beard, accent.

I'm thinking a "dry brine" (just salt the bird a day in advance), no other seasoning bc they don't actually penetrate the surface (molecules are too large (this is real))

BBQ, but during the frying portion use Alton Brown's frying derrick:

for real. frying a turkey is even more dangerous than it is delicious (and it's quite delicious)

Wet brine is THE answer for those of us who aren't as culinarily (is that a word?) adept. Just buy a grocery store brine kit and bathe the THAWED bird for at least twelve hours. Ensure complete coverage. Rinse well, stick a thermometer into the thicc breast and cook at 325F until it hits 165F. Remove from oven, let sit for at least half an hour before serving. Stupid easy, you don't have to worry about basting, what side goes up, burning down your house, stuffing, weight to cooking time ratios; none of that. I've tried all other non-bbq / non-frying methods and it is hands down the best. Throw in a few extra sprigs of rosemary for extra goodness.

green bean casserole is an important reminder of the kind of crap people had to eat during the great depression. chew it solemnly and let its horrible sliminess remind you of how fortunate you are.

Thanksgiving cheat codes


1. Don't volunteer to make anything

2. Don't provide any food

3. Eat your fill and leave before hugs occur

4. Bring a present for a dog so you have a reason to take off from any conversation to go see if the dog is playing with it

5. Bring the loudest dog you can and definitely feed him human food before the event.

6. Blame the fat people for the noxious gasses your dog is excreting.

That's a high quality avatar right there.
Gonna spatchcock and dry brine my turkey. Rub compound butter under the skin. Season with some Lawry’s and pepper, and smoke it at 275 on my Weber Smokey Mountain.

I always think the real stars if the show are the antipasto and my mom’s special Sunday gravy.

Everyone’s always full before the turkey comes out anyway, so no pressure.

gbc a weird one bc it was invented in 1955 by Dorcas Reilly for Campbell's but you are also not wrong. I never serve that noise.
