Can you deep fry other things besides turkey? Anybody tried doing a chicken, quail, dove, etc? I don't really want to buy something like that if I'm only going to use it once or twice a year. Not only that, but that oil is freakin' expensive, so I'd rather be able to cook a few things in one or two days. Thanks, Chimborazo |
| I have done chickens. They are very good. Do them just as you would the Turkey. Don't forget to try turkey breasts as well. Less meat to finish off. Another thing to try when you do a bird, fry biscuits. Take canned biscuits & cut them in 1/4 or 1/2 pieces. Drop them in the oil. You have to flip / turn them as you go so they cook evenly. Otherwise they will just float on 1 side. Don't forget to do fries or cheese sticks while the oil is hot. You will find all kinds of things to have with the poultry. |

But also remember that you can also use that humungas pot to do a CRAB BOIL ala CAJUN MAN!!: Potatoes, Corn, Chicken, Andouille, Shrimp, Crab, Lobster, Clams, Crawdads. Dump on paper covered table and eat until you explode. Some very good eating. |

Thanks, Chimborazo At a party last weekend we deep fried a big package of chicken wings, then shook them up in a big ziplock with Tabasco and spices to make some great, home made hotwings. Later we deep fried a couple of chickens for dinner. Sprinkled them down with spices after they were done. The chicken was tender and not oily on the inside. Deep fryers are great if your entertaining a bunch of guests for a game. Especially if you don't want to make a big mess in the kitchen. |
