Deep Fried Turkey For Thanksgiving? Thaw That Bird First!
FORT COLLINS, Colo. (CBS4)- Have you ever wanted to deep fry a turkey for Thanksgiving? Well, now firefighters at the Poudre Fire Authority are showing you what not to do.
Fire crews demonstrated in a video what happens when you throw a frozen turkey into the hot oil-- it's not a good idea.
Also, firefighters show how to extinguish a deep fryer fire-- not with water but rocks or dirt, something that will smother the flames.
Firefighters say it's best to try to put the lid back on the fryer and call 911.
