Thanksgiving Turkey 5 Ways | Basics with Babish

[@babishculinaryuniverse]

Very good points made by Evan Prowse below - before deep frying, make sure your turkey is completely/properly thawed, and make sure your oil is at the correct temperature. A frozen turkey not only won't cook evenly, the excess moisture could cause overflow or a fire - oil that's too hot could quickly cause overflow!

[@dylanmcintyre7867]

@@Layla-gz4ed let's get this out to a tray

[@JeremyFlint]

Also recommend checking out the "Big Easy Oilless Fryer". Works just as well as the deep fry, without all the mess to clean up. I switched to using that about 10 years ago and haven't looked back.

[@Eyepoke42]

I caused a fire at a restaurant once from not being careful with moisture and hot oil! It’s no joke! The restaurant was fine nothing got damaged 😂

[@UnveiledShadows]

You forgot to mention both that if the turkey isn't properly thawed when you deep fry it, it's going to cause a flare-up and take your arm, and if you have the oil heated too high, it's going to shoot the turkey out like a cannon

[@mjlotus]

Yet more reasons to just never do it. The risk/benefit tradeoff is just not there.

[@ImLunaShesZeta]

I was looking for this!

[@DaniJHollis]

I was never allowed to make the turkey for my family's Thanksgiving growing up. My family was mediocre cooks at best. Therefore, I always thought I hated turkey. But then, a few years ago, my mother was wheelchair bound & as a result, I was tasked with the turkey. Of all the things I had looked up, a spatchcocked turkey made the most sense & looked great. Plus I wanted to rip the spine out of a corpse like a Mortal Kombat fatality. So I did. And it was, far and away, the juiciest, the crispiest, the most well-seasoned, the most delicious turkey I & my family had ever had. I used the spatchcock turkey video from NOT ANOTHER COOKING SHOW for the how-to, but we agree, we will not do another method again. Ps, I got a pair of garden shears. Strictly for turkey prep. They're much heavier duty than kitchen shears, & they contend with the spine way easier than kitchen shears.

[@payedprocessing5310]

I just did a Cajun rub with garlic butter under the skin. Removed the spine to lay it flat and did a Mesquite smoke on it. Low & slow at 225

[@Lance-we2ud]

When it comes to deepfrying, Alton Brown made this cool turkey derrick which could be useful. It involved a ladder, rope and pulley system but it looked like a safe way to deposit the turkey into the oil.

[@rachelharris262]

[@hughphardid]

I gotta say I really want to see a Botched with Babish: Meatghetti and Spag Balls. I feel like the Spag Balls should've been baked with a cheese crust/bind similar to baked spaghetti rather than fried, and the meatghetti should've been thin cut strips of bulgogi style beef but seasoned the Italian meatball way. I feel like there must be a possible way to make that one actually done really well.

My favorite method is to spatchcock the bird. It cooks so fast and the skin is perfectly crispy for the entire bird. The best part is that the white and dark meat are done at the same time. I also only dry brine because Serious Eats ran some tests that showed that a dry and wet brine essentially reach the same goal but without the potential mess and volume of the wet brine. Then I add a citrus herb butter. I have gotten many people who find turkey to be boring without gravy and prefer to load up on sides to now love turkey and load up the plate with that.

I'm sick of experts saying you shouldn't stuff the turkey! The very word "stuffing" comes from stuffing the bird - if you don't, then it's dressing. Also, having the turkey juices flow over the stuffing is what makes it awesome! Stuff that bird if you want, but do brine first. It works, I gaaruntee!
