Keep your Home Safe from Turkey Frying Dangers this Thanksgiving

Who doesn't love a succulent deep fried Turkey? They're pretty darn tasty, no? Especially a spicy Cajun one.  Also, upping their irresistibility factor is their speed of cooking.  Minutes versus Hours, compared to roasting.  But Turkey fryers can be quite the fire hazard.  So keep your home safe this Thanksgiving with these tips:

  • Keep your house safe.  Make sure your turkey fryer is far away from your house, garage, trees and other structures.
  • Keep pets and children safe too.  Make sure they're far away from the fryer too.
  • Make sure your turkey is thawed and dried. Water and Oil do not mix well.
  • Never operate a fryer in the rain. Again the whole water and oil issue.
  • Place fryer on level surface and then don't move it.
  • Don't overfill it with oil.
  • Choose a small bird for frying, 8-10 lbs. 
  • Never leave fryer unattended.
  • Keep a grease-rated fire extinguisher close by.
  • Skip stuffing your bird.
  • Don't overheat oil. Too hot oil can catch fire.

Be safe and enjoy your bird! Happy Thanksgiving!
