Default Re: Cook It With Care

I saw this hint on Paula Deen's show and it works great. To know exactly how much oil you will need, put your turkey in the basket and put it in the fryer. Fill the fryer with water until turkey is covered. Remove turkey, pour water into a measuring cup and that tells you exactly how much oil you will need. No more grease boiling over when you put the turkey in and no more having to add oil after it is in. Be sure to dry all your water out before adding oil.
