Frying Turkeys

[Steve]

Thanks! Yes that was what I ment to type, but my mind works faster than my fingers.

Yes, it is important to remove the bird then mark the oile level! Otherwise things get very exciting (in a bad way!).

Thanks for the correction!

Was that a misprint, or am I just assuming incorrectly??
