Remember kids: 1) When frying your turkey, make sure you leave the propane tank close to the flames (preferably turned to full blast) 2) Always fry your turkeys on wooden decks
I prefer an indoor fry! Makes shit a whole lot more interesting! Plus the looks on your guests faces as they wait silently for a monster explosion really completes any thanksgiving holiday!

I'm not at all surprised, the vast majority of people don't even have a regular fire extinguisher in their house. I doubt more than a few people out of a hundred even realize all fire extinguishers are not the same
Nothing like pouring cold water on a hot grease fire after you’re stood there a few minutes watching the open flame burn, close to your propane tank! To make sure the fire isn’t starved for fuel use this method on your wooden deck!
@@SiriusMined In today’s society common sense has become extinct for many people. With all the social media and print material one would think people would do research and gather information if they’ve never done anything as dangerous as this before they try it, but that’s not always the case.
@@nashantastanley3261 OMG the guy to the right was basically standing in the fire anyways so what’s the difference? He’s literally shielding himself with a cardboard box that’s flammable 4’ away that will do nothing if it explodes completely
I had a propane fryer years ago. Never used it. No one wanted to mess with it. Finally bought an electric fryer about 6 years ago. Haven't baked a turkey since.
Mistakes: Wood deck platform connected to the house, looks like they used 4 gallons of oil, used water on an oil fire, left the propane tank (should have been turned off, disconnected, and removed from the area). Those are just the ones I quickly noticed. Frying a turkey produces the best turkey I have ever had. You just have to use your head and be smart about it, otherwise, you are better off using the oven.
You should do it in the drive way and not a wooden deck. Also you should always have a fire extinguisher in your house for this and any other accidents. Specifically the oil/Grease chemical which I believe is a B but you can get an A B C extinguisher now that will cover paper/Wood, electrical, and grease.
But when you go to relight it KABOOM! It's best to use rudimentary math and calculate how much oil is needed first and tack on the weight and size of the bird.
@@jakesomit9216 you don't even need math. Put the turkey in a plastic bag and put it in the pot. Fill the pot with enough water to cover to the top of the turkey. Remove turkey and mark the depth of the water inside the pot. Dump the water and completely dry the pot. Fill with oil to the line. Take turkey out of bag and viola! There's the right amount of oil in the pot.
@@pjaypender1009 I know this is a old post,but I’m frying a turkey right now and use the same method you speak of, I thought it was a common practice to do it this way, hopefully people can use your post to prevent themselves from looking completely incompetent, Happy Thanksgiving!!
I do not understand the stupidity of everyone in this video... On a wood deck with no fire extinguisher and then someone thinks its a good idea to start pouring water all over the place, and with the propane tank still attached? Did everyone there fail elementary school science class?
Not quite - but the one person who DID listen in class was getting ignored. She said right at the beginning that they should put it out with baking soda, and that she had learned it in class. She even brought the baking soda, but couldn't get close enough to use it. Nobody listened to her and they told her to do stupid things instead that could have caused an explosion if they hadn't been really lucky.
actually, the way the finally handled it wasn't bad. I mean, it could've gotten them all killed, but they covered the fire and at least got the propane tank out of there.... Of course I'd never recommend trying this again, as if anything went wrong, they'd be dead.... But still... Look mom, no death! Seriously when i saw this i thought i was watching someone loose their house.
It's called "No child left behind" Bush passed it in early 2000s to stop kids from, well, being left behind in education... Problem is, the solution for kids who don't catch up (usually those who, for one reason or another, do not care) end up just being pushed through from grade to grade until they get to 16 and drop out.
I guess... I know a lot of people blame the No Child Left Behind act for causing lazy schools to push undriven kids through, causing illiteracy, but it, ironically, was supposed to solve this sort of problem.
1st off, when frying a turkey in that concoction, it needs to be @ least 50 ft away from the house. Second you should have either a fill max line on the pot, or submerge the turkey in water in the pot you'll be cooking it before starting the cooking process. That way when you remove it from the water u can make a fill line mark for the oil. & Third turn off the burner after the oil reach a temp of 350 -375 degrees F before lowering the turkey in the hot oil. Last but definetly not lease, pat the turkey dry make sure there's no moisture cuz hot oiln& moisture don't mix.
And photosynthesis is what they tech in anatomy. Haha, of course she's a blonde. Plus you gotta love everyone recognizing that pouring water on a grease fire is a bad idea yet no one stops the old man.
It wasn’t the water that put it out, it was smothering the oxygen from the fire. Baking soda wasn’t the right , also shoulda removed propane first thing. Oil will burn propane tank will be a bomb
The title is "Why you should bake a turkey". It needs to be changed to why dump people shouldn't cook and Matt U you obviously don't know anything if you think water is the best thing for an oil fire that's the worst think you could do aside from pouring gas on it.
This is why one should order a fried turkey from a store or restaurant. They have the proper equipment, training and expertise to fry it safely. Given the choice of fire on the deck and/or burning down the house vs spending $50 or more for a ready to serve or even heat and eat fried turkey, I'll buy cheap insurance and get a turkey already fried
Also, you can pre- cook the damn bird, and cut up the turkey, and cook the parts separately. We eat only the Breast and grind the rest up for the pets, the wife pressure cooks all the parts and then cans that meat up and mixes with her pet food supply and the cat's love it.
Title should read "This is why *I* should bake *MY* turkey". I fry two turkeys every year without fail. Thawed turkey, oil level just to the tip of the submerged turkey, oil at 375* when turkey is lowered in SLOWLY.
Read the instructions and follow the instructions, keep your eye on the ball and you will have the best turkey of your life. People like this deserve to be on CZcams. I will never bake a turkey again!
+jeabo0adhd Just turn of the gas. Wait a minute or so for that gas to clear out, then disconnect the tank and let the thing burn out. Expect a long night of keeping an eye one it.
Remember kids:
1) When frying your turkey, make sure you leave the propane tank close to the flames (preferably turned to full blast)
2) Always fry your turkeys on wooden decks
if there is a fire, put ICE into the oil will help lower the temperature and extinguish the fire. Water will work too, just splash it into the oil.
Dont forget to make the pot overflow with oil before putting the turkey in, and light the top on fire if it isnt already. Then drop the turkey in
I don't think these people should cook ANYTHING... EVER.
Take out would be a better plan for them
get the party started...kick that shit over
Lmao !
Please say, "It's go time!" first.
I prefer an indoor fry! Makes shit a whole lot more interesting! Plus the looks on your guests faces as they wait silently for a monster explosion really completes any thanksgiving holiday!
yep 4 years later
True, but I got a Big Easy from Charbroil. It runs on propane. But it's infrared energy.

why

Wouldn't be thanksgiving without a call for a turkey fire....
Right, every house should have a fire extinguisher 🧯

@@yodaguy6956 True Story
at the begining of the video, what i find funniest is the four empty gallons of peanut oil jugs....lol perhaps, that was a bit much.....lol
Right people don't take into account the turkey when they add the oil. It's one of the major causes of fire when deep frying a turkey.
well tryin to cook on top of a wood floor that is atach to a house made of wood is not a really good idea to begin...so
🤣😂🤣💆💆💆🤣🤦
This is why you bake a turkey ? No. This is why idiots shouldn't try to fry one.
No, this is why these people shouldn't have a kitchen in the first place. They may start a fire turning on the faucet.

Always have an CLASS B FIRE EXTINGUISHER for Oil and Gas handy!

I agree lol
Lol they just stand there in awe
Better yet this is why you cut off the fryer while putting the bird in and then relight. No open flame no ignition source if it overflows.
But when you go to relight it KABOOM! It's best to use rudimentary math and calculate how much oil is needed first and tack on the weight and size of the bird.

I guess the thought of having a...FUCKING FIRE EXSTIGINUISHER never entered their minds before trying to fry that turkey.
I love how the camera starts, the turkey and frier are on fire, the deck is UNDER it...
and nobody has a fire extinguisher
also $10 says they haven't turned off the propane and that beast is still cooking.
I'm bringing this to the firehouse for some post-incident debriefing....
And a few laughs
I agree with that chick, "it was a bad idea!!!!"
Don't call the fire department. Get a damn fire extinguisher
I remember learning what to do with a grease fire in biology class it was a whole unit in and of itself
A complete and utter failure. Once they properly got the fire out on that wooden deck, a call to a pizza joint would have been in order.

Is that guy serious with the lid on a 12inch handle!!??
How is it that in 2015 people still don't have kitchen fire extinguishers?
+Ryan Barbolt how is it 2016 and people dont know you dont put an oil fire out with water!
Well...I'm not sure, but their is somebody behind him saying "this is a bad idea"
Nice job to the dude with the carpet lol
I was freaking out when I noticed the wooden deck and lost it when they said, "Get the water"
I love when the fire department shows up and throws buckets of baking soda on my fire
Turkeys done.. Lets eat!!!
wetting the ground: good
watering the oil fire: better have your will & advanced directive ready
The water was a bad idea good thing you guys got it under controll though

mmm....that would taste good
Hope the turkey wasn’t too dry. Just put a little gravy on it and it should be fine.
Lmao omg this was funny
As soon as I heard water, I knew they deserved it.
On a wood deck. Honest to God.
I once had barbecued turkey one Thanksgiving.
I guess we know who to call if there is ever
An ELECTRICAL FIRE 🔥 ✔️ I’m not sure he’d would be as lucky as the grease fire.
*_GORDON RAMSAY HAS LEFT THE CHAT_*

Wetting the deck first was smart. Then cutting off the oxygen was very smart.
Or not frying on an elevated wooden deck, that would have been my first suggestion.
