Deep-Fried Turkey Marinade

Used this recipe for my very first fried turkey it came out absolutely marvelous. I actually fried two turkeys one for my house and one for my mother's house. I highly recommend this recipe!

This was by far the best fried turkey we ever ate! Great recipe!

Resulted in an amazing, juicy, tasty bird. At first I wasn't going to follow thru with deep frying this 22.5 lb bird after reading posts online but I'm glad i did! This is our first fried turkey and it blew everyone away. Id be afraid to try another recipe in fear of disappointment compared to how succulent & juicy this turned out. Most posts I've found suggest cooking in oil at 350 degrees at 3 - 3.5 min per pound. We dropped this bad boy in at 350 and could barely get oil back above 250, continued at that for 1hr 15 minutes and this 22.5 lb. bird was cooked perfect, 160 - 180 throughout. We used a 26 quart fryer I borrowed, made a heck of a mess splattering oil on concrete patio dropping it in as slow as could be.. so i will certainly be investing into a much larger pot. What i don't get is if this big bird was PERFECT (and i mean perfect) at 250 degrees at little over 3 min per pound, i imagine this and any other bird would be over cooked and less juicy at the higher temp for same amount of time.. IDK but I'll be paying even more close attention to temps & times from here out.

This was my first turkey ever! I like everyone else was scared about it being too spicy but this was amazing! I put the whole bottle of dressing but that was because my following directions isn’t that good. I did blot the inside in the am after it had marinated all night. The smell was awesome and everyone couldn’t wait to taste. A total hit in my house even if it looked a little burnt

This was really tasty. We did two turkeys, the brine in Brown Sugar and Water and this recipe. It turned out really tasty and the deep frying ensures it's moist! Ours did end up darkening to a very dark, dark brown, but it didn't taste burnt at all and believe me, we eat the skin! The marinade made so much that we didn't use it all and there was enough left for a whole other turkey. I would also recommend gloves for sensitive skin. Really off the wall, but great recipe!!

Delicious! My wife wants me to do it for Christmas too!
