Frying in the Deep - Adele Parody

I'm cooking for 3 days and he's having a deep fried tailgate. I'd be mad if the turkey wasn't so good. Guys, it's unfair how good it is. #thanksgiving #parody #adele

The one dislike is from the turkey who’s just bitter about being roasted 😂 You guys are so hilarious, keep doing what your doing.

[@starr146]

Dudee lol.

[@Trasea]

Can you blame the turkey? He wanted to live past 3 months old. They're actually pretty cool animals... they see 3 times better than humans do... they blush like we do... they purr like cats.

[@WouldntULikeToKnow.]

The one dislike is from someone who forgot to completely thaw their turkey before putting it in the oil!

Don’t know if this is your best parody EVER, but it’s a Top 5, maybe Top 3. Hysterical!

[@larryatha3221]

in 1980 or so my dad had gone duck hunting in Arkansas and learned how to deep fry catfish filets in the duck blind on a Coleman Stove. He had a big party in January and set the stove up in the brand new 3 car garage (with a suspended ceiling and a big workbench at end opposite the garage door. ) He had done a prototype cooking and was all ready. When he dropped several cornmeal breaded fish filets into the boiling oil - the oil splashed on the burner and became a jet engine - scorching the ceiling tiles in a giant flame up. the dinner party was salvaged - by going to the BBQ restaurant but we had to use the fire extinguisher. The new workbench and ceiling tiles were never the same - the garage and downstairs was filled with smoke. Be careful.Happy thanksgiving. family fun memories. ;)

[@jonathanbuckland8945]

Just don't use a frozen turkey, or you'll be going to the hospital with bad burns!

[@abidingewe2065]

Yes! He needs a warning on the video to PLEASE (if you value yourself) DO NOT use a frozen turkey! 😱🤕

[@KwispyZ]

I mean it is kind of common sense to thaw the turkey just like thawing every other meat/poultry/fish. It's just you have to thaw the turkey longer.

[@samwalker3441]

@@abidingewe2065 You are totally right. There should be a really big disclaimer put on this. Using a frozen turkey and putting into the hot oil will likely result in a large fire that could kill the person cooking it and burn down whatever is nearby long before the fire department can arrive. Please put up some warnings.

[@MyFocusVaries]

I am all about safety. But this is not an instructional video. It's an entertainment parody. Anyone who has never deep fried a turkey would surely look up a recipe (it's likely included in the manual with the deep fryer), which would include that information regarding not using a frozen turkey.

[@antonbruce1241]

Not only can you get bad burns...you COULD set your house on fire if your turkey isn't 100% defrosted!!!!

[@jeniececollazo7033]

I love this family because they are so hilarious. 😂😂😂

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

Awesome job! We had boat neighbors from New Orleans who used to fry turkeys on our dock. Luckily they were concrete docks, not wood - pretty sure the marina manager didn’t appreciate it, but we all did!

[@wysteriaherr8306]

I agree with frying a turkey, it's delicious, and work smarter not harder.

[@imorgan1212]

We already had Thanksgiving up here in Canada. Maybe I can convince my family to do this for Christmas 🎄

I do enjoy hearing people outside of Louisiana try to pronounce the seasoning

[@kathleenkirchoff9223]

YUP, growing up in Cajun country of Southeast Texas and having a teaching certificate for French I can pronounce it. But most folks I know just say "Passez moi the Tony's" It is awesome on popcorn too. ( NOT the injector liquid kind:-)

[@mbyerly9680]

The turkey is being cooked with fire and hot oil. You do not, under any circumstances, walk away from it. Just no. It's a fire hazzard, and some kid or pet could get killed if they messed with it. I don't know about Alton Brown's brine method, but his GOOD EATS episode, "Fry Turkey Fry" is an awesome explanation of how not to get hurt while dealing with a turkey and fire.

[@AndrewTrembley]

[@xileets]

♫Drop it in the oil. Watch that sucker boil.♪ Nice. B-)

[@harvestkitty]

There’s a method called butterflying. It spreads out the turkey for oven roasting in a way that reduces time and cooks it more evenly so you don’t have to worry so much.

[@charlenestahl6185]

It's called spatchcock. I always cut out the back and flatten the bird, It doesn't get dry because the cooking time is so much less. Actually we call it porno turkey because when the legs are kinda together the lower breast area skin looks like a certain female part. Oh, gee, Thanksgiving giggles.

[@sewingintrifocals-alisonde7778]

My son and I have been deep-frying turkey s for about 20 years, with Sen. Broussard’s of LA Cajun marinade recipe from the “Congress Cooks” website and the dry-rub recipe from the “National Turkey Federation” website. Kim is right, the skin is so wonderful. I make my own fresh celery green juice, onion juice, and garlic juice for the marinade, since they are not sold in Calif. Frying a turkey DOES mean one of us has to sit and watch the fryer, for reals, for safety and to monitor the oil temp. Love the Vid, will send it to my son!

We've been having deep-fried turkey every Thanksgiving since 1998 when we first had it in New Orleans!! I love not having to get up at 4:00 am to put the turkey in the oven and then not be able to use my oven all day! Everyone who's tasted our turkey has loved it.

[@saundraooo6135]

It's pronounced sasheree. Everything's better, try it on eggs. If you ever mess up a recipe just sprinkle it on. Tony would approve lol

[@amylynnchristen103]

Yessssss !!!! We say Tony Shashureez .. But I did just listen to the commercial & they did say Sashureez ... oh well, guess we're just a lil off down the bayou here in Golden Meadow, La. 30 miles from Grand Isle & the Gulf. We'll probably continue to say it Sha-shu-reez tho. So very Cajunny Penn. Good job 👍

[@hopebrown849]

What Saundra said 🥰 its great on everything! My favorite is sprinkle some on my crinkle fries in my oven !!

[@Hanleia1]

@Saundra Ooo. When my, now 15-year-old was much younger, he could not swallow scrambled eggs. I don't know if it was the taste or texture. So one day, I have forgotten how, Tony Chachere's was added, and from that day forward he was able to eat the scrambled eggs. No offence to Tony Chachere's, our family, has been using Slap Ya Mama seasoning. - Tony Chachere's is a seasoning blend, a magical little canister of dust to spice up your food. ... Slap Ya Mama is similar to Tony Chachere's. Unlike Tony's, it's a lot easier for the uninitiated to pronounce. Slap Ya Mama loyalists say it's better than Tony's because it's got less salt.-

[@emmleedee]

This is the comment I was like for, and there you were. Right up top. My husband puts it on EVERYTHING. He keeps some at his desk at work, and we always have it at home. He doesn’t even taste his food before adding Tony’s lol.

Brining it is the only way to go. 10x better than poking it with needles all over the place.

So how long would I soak the turkey in that and wouldn't need to be thawed first? I love fruity salty, MOIST, but I'm a complete turkey novice this year and I have a 20 lb turkey I have to figure out what to do with! Help?

[@homegrownson]

@@LindaHutchings 1 hour per pound, thawing helps but if allow more brine time its not required as long as not frozen solid

[@rontiemens2553]

@@LindaHutchings To deep fry a turkey it must be thawed first. 20 lb turkey might be a bit large for most fryers. But you could cut the back out to make room. Watch Alton Brown’s KZbin video on Deep Frying turkey. He covers everything in detail.

I love this video as I do all of the videos you upload. These have really helped so much during this year. I can tell from the ending of this video that you guys do not live in the South. :-) If no one else in the comments has said this is how you pronounce Tony Chachere (sa-shur-ee). I am total with you on how fried turkey is juicer than any other way it may be prepared and baked in the oven. My mother-in-law is allergic, severely to peanut oil. So they have used other oils and in the past few years air-fried the turkey. Thank you so very much for the videos and the extra and behind the scenes content.

[@duanemiller5606]

Quick tip on roasting a turkey and keeping it moist. You can inject or not inject if you wish but the real trick is roast it upside down. Most people will cook it back bone in the pan breast up but if you flip it over so the breast is down in the pan and you have some chicken stock or turkey stock or just water seasoning and vegetables, it basically self basting and will come out nice and juicy.

[@eph2vv89only1way]

The skin is always the best part of the turkey! And btw, there is an easy way to keep a turkey moist. I mix about 1/2 cup of butter or margarine with 2 rounded tablespoons of poultry seasoning then spread it as evenly as possible between the skin and the meat before I roast it.
