ingredients
4 ounces liquid garlic
4 ounces liquid onion
4 ounces liquid celery
1 tablespoon red pepper
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons Tabasco
1 ounce liquid crab boil
OR
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
1 defrosted turkey (10- to 12-pound size)
5 gallons peanut oil
directions
Saute first seven ingredients until salt and pepper are dissolved.
Fill an injector and inject turkey at breast, wings, drumsticks, thighs and back. Allow to marinate 24 hours in refrigerator or ice chest.
Use a 10-gallon pot for frying. Bring peanut oil to 350 degrees F and fry turkey for 38 to 42 minutes. Turkey should float to surface after 35 minutes and you should cook an additional 5 to 7 minutes.
You may want to tie turkey legs with 1/2-inch cotton ropes to be able to remove from frying pot when done. The cooking of fried turkey should be done outdoors. Extreme caution should be taken when placing cold turkey in hot oil.
