I’m almost scared to do so since I hear all kind of stories about deck’s catching on fire Thanksgiving day. However if I ever plan on giving it a try, I would probably use something similar to the Bayou Classic Outdoor Turkey Fryer Kit.

The 30-Quart Stockpot was specifically designed for frying whole turkeys. The perforated raised poultry rack allows the cooking oil to circulate evenly when frying, preventing the bottom from scorching. The grab hook provides a way to safely insert and remove poultry from hot cooking oil. The 12″ Stainless Steel Deep Fry Thermometer is perfect for maintaining a constant temperature of cooking oil when frying.
