This holiday season, Jack Kennedy invited his team mates and their families over to enjoy his Christmas food specialty, which is deep fried turkey. Most everyone knows that turkey is a Christmas time standard, gorged upon and slathered and gravy, before the spiked egg nogs and a nap. However, deep fried turkey is another beast entirely. A 14lb cooks in 49 minutes flat, and the resulting golden crispy skinned and moist meat is life changing. So here is how it's done. 24 hours before dropping this bad boy in the peanut oil, I'll dry brine the bird and its cavity with a secret herb and spice mixture, more is more in this case. Then she sits in the fridge uncovered til the next day. This makes the skin nice a tonight (like a tiger). When it's time to fry, the peanut oil will reach 350 degrees F. You slowly drop your (FULLY THAWED I REPEAT FULLY THAWED) bird in to the bubbling peanut oil in a stainless steel pot over a propane burner. Once the bird is fully submerged, sit back, crack a cold one, but always keep a fire extinguisher on deck. This will be the best turkey you ever eat and will ruin oven roasted birds for ever.
