Turn off the burner when you put the turkey in. The turkey needs to be room temperature and dry. If it is raining or snowing it will make your Turkey frying experience for a really bad day. You just want to make sure that you are cooking in a covered but ventilated are.
It may fluctuate a few degrees depending on the weather while cooking outside but it should not be that big a deal. Make sure that you are able to get a good read on the temperature. Once completely dry you will add the oil to the pot and bring it to a temperature of about 375 to 400 degrees. You can also add you cooking pot to your stove top and heat to make sure all water is gone before adding to your outdoor fryer heating source. You can add any seasonings you like I prefer to inject my seasonings directly into the bird. You will now dry and season your turkey, and make sure that your frying pot is completely dry. You will then remove the turkey and measure the amount of water left, and this is the amount of oil you will need to fry your turkey. If you do not have any room for extra water you will need to get a larger pot.
DEEP FRIED TURKEY PLUS
To determine the perfect amount of oil you are going to be using, place the turkey in the pot and add water until the turkey is completely covered plus an inch or two left from the top. It would melt into the oil, not a good thing. Make sure that there is not any type of thermometer or device that will pop out on the turkey. You will also need to truss the turkey, meaning you need to secure the legs, neck flap, wings and tail to the body of the turkey. You can use canola, vegetable oil, but it is better if you use peanut oil. You will need a completely thawed turkey, a couple gallons of oil, and a very large cooking pot. When you are done marinading you are ready to cook your Turkey. I like to put the fresh herbs directly into the cavity of the bird for a little extra flavor. You will mix all ingredients together, and add your Turkey and the marinade to your pot, and cover, and add to the refrigerator overnight. You will need a pot big enough to keep in your refrigerator for the 8 hour period to keep your Turkey in. Marinade or Brine your Turkey for at least 8 hours for extra flavor and to make sure it is really moist.
