Thank you😍

[@MrsQirstenl]

Update: ours turned out amazing thank you!! We may use a little less seasoning on the turkey next time, some parts were super salty. BUT AMAZING! We have a this fryer, and doing this exact method right now! 14 lbs prepared and ready to go! Waiting for the fryer to warm up and down the turkey goes. I’m so excited! Thank you!

[@lisewilson1]

I'm frying my first turkey (have never even cooked a turkey) this year so bought the Masterbuilt fryer as that was what my husband wanted. Thank you for showing how to do this. Now I feel more comfortable doing this since you gave us step by step how to do it.

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

I'm so glad...you're husband is going to love it..Thank you for watching and Enjoy💕

[@itsme6095]

Same here, I plan to follow your steps tomorrow. Great detailed video.

[@rKingMike]

It’s super easy and y’all will love it! I fry regular food in it also and it’s amazing. 22-30 wings at a time for parties is unmatched.

[@jdelgado1907]

This was an awesome video. Thank you so much for this video… quick question, can I fry two turkeys with the same oil? Or do I have to change the oil every time I fry another turkey? And how would you change it if it’s hot..thanks

Waiting on my fryer to arrive, and I’ve got a frozen 18lb bird waiting for the fryer. I heard a deep fried Turkey with a good season injection was the best. Yet I was worried as I have no idea what to do. You came through! Relieved me of all my worries! Thank you!

This was my 2nd year frying turkeys, u got this!!

[@rdt7198]

Great video! I have been doing this about 10 years now, and just retired my first fryer and bought a new one this year. Only thing I do different is I use the marinade to coat the turkey before seasoning instead of butter. I have the smaller fryer, but I do 15 pounds with no problem!

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

Thank you, yes I actually did that this year and poured a little inside the bird. I Didn't really see a big difference the bird was just as awesome...Thank you so much for watching 💕

[@missmeyon]

I bought this exact fryer and I will be using it for my first fried turkey for Thanksgiving. I filled it with water yesterday and submerged the bird while still in plastic. That way I know exactly how much oil to use to cook evenly. I'm excited! 🤗

I might have to try the regular old vegetable oil. I always use the peanut oil since I started cooking them in 1995. I make my own injection with 1000 Island salad dressing & Tony's C Cajun seasoning

Hey, trust me the regular oil is just fine🤩 thank you so much for watching 💕

Thanks for watching 💜 this is my hair page

[@prestonmcleod1726]

I just ordered 1 from Amazon. Last year I ordered the Charbroiler Oilless Big Easy, which I was greatly satisfied w/. But I think it's much crisper using oil, & from what I seen & heard, this unit seems like it make turkey frying much easier & safer than using propane. Hopefully it, come before Thanksgiving, if not, I'll have it by Christmas.

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

I was so tempted to get an oiless one this year, but I figured, if it ain't broke don't fix it, plus I have way to many gadgets..It is very safe. I was skeptical frying in the kitchen but the fryers design keeps grease from flying all in the air, you will be pleased. ENJOY and thank you for watching 💜...

[@prestonmcleod1726]

@@cookingwithmzmagictv I was thinking bout using it on my patio, just because I don't want the grease to smell up my house or stain my walls or anything.

I didn’t know that Masterbuilt also has a fryer. I have a Mastbuilt smoker grill that I am going to smoke a Turkey on with the rotisserie attachment.

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

Sounds Delicious 😋

[@amirballardsr]

I fry turkey's in the same machine, although mine is branded by Butterball. I was wondering how do you keep the turkey hot and crispy for your customers? And do they supply the turkey or do you?

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

Hi, I supply the Turkeys during Thanksgiving because they are less expensive..I treat pick up like an assembly line, when clients Turkey is done they are here to pick up their Turkeys, lining the pan with paper towels so the Turkey stays crisp. I tell them to try to keep Turkey in a warm oven before serving. Thank you for watching 💜...

[@amirballardsr]

@@cookingwithmzmagictv I’ve been frying them for almost 10 years and I love it! Always looking to perfect the craft and get better! Thanks for posting

[@donniealexander993]

I use canola oil. Cost a little more than vegetable oil but less than peanut oil. Canola oil produces less smoke and you can reuse it up to 5x

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

I might canola next time..thank you for watching 💜...

[@mikegalanos9604]

Awesome video thank you thought it was awesome when you cut you a piece I can not cook anything without getting me some when carving. My question is was your overall cook time 77 minutes? You stated 4 minutes per pound then said it needed 5 more minutes at 375 did that do the trick or did it actually need more than 5? Appreciate you and the video

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

Hi, yes the 5 more minutes did the trick. I was used to my old fryer, that went to 400°, it probably was done but I wanted to be sure...Thank you for watching 💜...

[@ladydee1378]

I just bought a Masterbuilt. About to try for first time. How many minutes per pound please? Or is there another way to know when ready? My confidence is high. Appreciate you sharing my sister. Happy Holidays!

Hi, you should cook the turkey 3 to 4 min per pound...thank you for watching 💜

[@calandra6541]

What all can you do with the fryer

Hi, you can fry everything, chicken , fish...also you can do seafood boils as well

@cookingwithmzmagictv thank you soon much, going to get one next week before thanksgiving. I always baked a turkey, but nevered fried one lol. Happy Holidays to you and your Family!

[@senecahubbard4655]

Any tips for maintaining the oil temp throughout the entire cook time, I have this same exact fryer and have fried a couple turkeys the problem I have is that once I put the turkey into the oil the oil temp goes down from 375 to about 265 and stays at around 260 for the entire cook time resulting in soggy skin instead of crisp skin. Turkey still gets done but would like crispy skin. Any tips for this?

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

Turkey must be at room temperature before dropping in oil , I'm talking about 2 three hours on the counter before cooking, also pat the bird completely dry after injecting, hope this helps

[@donniealexander993]

How long does it take for the oil to preheat to 375?

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

Hi, it takes an hour for the oil to heat up

[@glo7957]

What do you do with the oil after frying?

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

Hi, I filter the oil back into the original containers, after it is cool, I use the same oil to Fry Turkeys for Christmas, used oil is usually good for 2 months, then I freeze it and throw it away..Thank you so much for watching

[@prestonmcleod1726]

From what I learned, if using peanut oil, u can fry up to 8 turkeys w/the same oil. Being it has a high smoke point, however, some may be allergic to peanut oil, but you should definitely filter it if reusing.

[@jlastre]

Just found the video. I’ve fried three turkeys with my Masterbuilt (branded Butterball). I basically came just to see how others season the bird. I’ll point out you can use other high smoke point oils that aren’t peanut or vegetable oil. They are expensive though. I’m not allergic so use peanut oil.

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

How do you season your bird? And do you inject, I'm thinking of making my own injection

[@jlastre]

@@cookingwithmzmagictv I didn’t do much. I just, by hand, push some butter under the skin. Then I use an off the shelf Adobo. Adobo is a mixture of salt, garlic, cumin and other stuff Hispanics/Latinx use for seasoning. I am trying to cut down on butter, garlic 🧄 and salt 🧂. I have a health issue that came up recently. I don’t fry often but this is one thing I do fry once a year. Probably will still use them all but less. I might make my own seasoning as I really need to watch my salt and garlic now.

[@TheKwill32]

Great video. How many turkeys can u fry without changing the oil?

[@cookingwithmzmagictv]

I fried 6 in a row...

[@prestonmcleod1726]

If using peanut oil 8

[@dosteen1]

Remember when seasoning the turkey that salt degrades the oil.

Inner ready temperature at 165 is too low… I recommend 180-185F… This is your side hustle .?? You made a ton of mistakes, for one I let the injection soak into the turkey over night, also I add seasoning to inside of the turkey as well…. I prefer my method of injecting the turkey vs your method. Also noticed you didn’t inject the back of the turkey… Just some of my pointers… Anyways Keep cooking and always have fun!!!
