Watch Eight Explosive Deep-Fried Turkey Disaster Videos
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, which around these parts means it's time to watch a bunch of horrifying turkey deep fryer disasters. When it comes to deep frying a turkey, it turns out there is a right way and a very, very wrong way to do it. Word to the wise: if you must submerge your turkey in blazing hot oil instead of roasting it in a comparably safe oven, please make sure it is 100% defrosted first. (For more tips, maybe try the Alton Brown method? See videos: part one, part two, part three.)
Below, seven never-before-posted-on-Eater Thanksgiving deep fryer disaster videos, plus one all-time favorite. If these aren't enough for you, there are many more turkey flameballs where these came from. Have a happy Thanksgiving, and for the love of turkey, don't try this at home.
