Are you thinking about making your first attempt to deep-fry a turkey?  If you’re unsure on how to do it, Tracey Lawrence has some tips for you. He says, quote, “You have to make sure the turkey is completely thawed out.  The ice, when it hits that hot grease, will absolutely explode. That’s how you burn your house down.”

That might seem obvious, but he’s probably bringing it up because he’s heard stories.  Quote, “Don’t set your fryer up on your porch . . . especially if you have a wood deck.  Move the fryer away from your house.”

Tracy and his team have fried over 6,400 turkeys since 2006.  He’s raised over $600,000 for the Nashville Rescue Mission and provided some 90,000 meals through the years.
