Absolutely hilarious!
"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!"
“The sudden release of steam (water VAPOR) expels a flammable aerosol of cooking oil from the fryer which contacts the flame and the aerosol burns REALLY rapidly, ie “e plodes.” It’s no secret.”
Come on folks, it’s simple.
It’s the same reaction ya get when ya light up your farts.
Sudden release of steam and gas, flame, explosion.
spot on don’t play trendy it’s for the kids.
I have fried over a dozen. There are no issues as long as the entire bird is thawed. You have to stick you hand on the inside and feel for ice crystals.
If that dumb cluck actually wants an answer, somebody should tell him that it is a steam explosion from the ice in/on the turkey. That steam blows the hot oil out of the pot, which subsequently catches fire when it hits the open flame under the pot.
It’s evil spirits. Also white meat supremacy.
Back to front, right?...
The chef Alton Brown had a contraption using a stepladder and pulley system to lower the turkey. I thought that was a bit much, but better safe than sorry? But I leave it to the professionals: Cajuns.
I had a neighbor who had a beautiful field stone hearth and fireplace built into his house. Ten feet tall, wall to wall, and the fireplace was huge, the kind you could duck your head and walk into it. Well he couldn’t resist building a nice fire after two months. The stone Mason told him six months. After three days of a nice roaring fire the entire east end of his house exploded from the superheated steam trapped in the mortar and stone. Rubble everywhere. The family was in the kitchen when it blew.
Right to Left.

Milk at thanksgiving is a bit odd....we had sweet tea...with mint leaf
It is the C4 spice....
I remember the first year I was to do a turkey. I sweated for a week before hand, reading everything I could find on how to roast the perfect turkey. Got a letter from my grandmother.
Dear Granddaughter - A turkey is nothing but an over grown chicken. Roast it the same way you would a chicken and it will be fine.
I did and it was.
why do car batteries explode in salt water?
Correct. Happy Thanksgiving.
hydrogen gas
they don’t
