Prior to lighting, position thermometer clip so that at least 2.75″ of thermometer tip is submerged in oil. Reposition thermometer as necessary to cook. Continue to use thermometer until burner is turned off.
The following safety measures are recommended when using your fry set.

LOCATION MATTERS

Select a safe place to fry your turkey. It should be in an open area, outsode, and on a cement or brick surface. Place the liquid propane gas tank and fryer so that if any wind blows on a wooden deck. Keep a minimum clearance of 10 feet from the sides, front, and back of the fryer to any construction.

PREPARE PROPERLY

  • Remove and discard any thermometer buttons, leg holders, and giblet packs contained inside the completely thawed turkey. DO not attempt to fry a frozen or partially frozen turkey. Ensure your turkey is completely thawed prior to proceeding. The USDA recommends thawing 24 hours (1 day) for every 4-5 pounds in the refrigerator.
  • Insert the T-Star stand up through the cavity of turkey so that the legs are at the top.

Determining the maximum fill level when using a vessel without a maximum fill line:

  • Place the turkey (or other food product) on the lifter.
  • Place the turkey and lifter into the empty pot.
  • Fill the pot with water just until the turkey is completely submerged. There must be a minimum of 3 inches or 8 cm between the water level and top of the pot.
  • Remove the turkey from the pot and either mark the water level on the side of the pot or measure the amount of water in the pot.
  • Remove the water and completely dry the pot and the turkey.
  • This is the amount of peanut oil the pot is to be filled with to cook the turkey.
  • Use marinade by injecting it into the thicker areas of the turkey breasts andthighs.
  • To use, load the injector with marinade and insert the needle into the turkey. Withdraw the needle slowly while pushing the plunger, minimizing largepockets of marinade and spreading it more evenly. Discard any unused marinade.
  • Completely pat dry the inside and outside surfaces of the turkey. This is veryimportant as it reduces the splattering of oil. After patting the turkey dry, addherb rubs or seasonings to the skin.

FRY WITH CARE

  • Check your hose at both ends for proper connection. Also, place the LP tank and hose so that they are not located directly next to the fryer (see photo). Center the pot over the burner on the cooker.
  • Fill the pot to the mark with peanut oil. Do not place an empty cooking vessel on the appliance while in operation. Placing an empty cooking vessel on the appliance while in operation will result in melting the cooking vessel. Use caution when placing anything in cooking vessel while the appliance is in operation.
  • Light the burner unit and heat the oil to 325″F. Never leave the fryer unattended at any time.
  • Check the oil using a deep fry temperature gauge. If it has reached 325°F, you are ready to start deep frying. Monitor the temperature throughout the frying process to maintain 325°F never let the oil temperature get hotter than 325°F.
  • If the oil exceeds 400°F or if the oil begins to smoke, immediately turn the burner off.
  • Wear long, insulated, flame- -retardant gloves to protect your hands and arms. Use the lift handle to slowly lower the turkey into the oil. Pause at several points before reaching the bottom of the pot.
  • Never drop food or accessories into hot cooking liquid. Lower food and accessories slowly into the cooking liquid in order to prevent splashing or overflow. When removing food from the appliance, care shall be taken to avoidburns from hot cooking liquids.
  • Adjust the burner to maintain 325’F. Monitor the fryer during the entire process to assure a safe frying experience. Do not leave fryer unattended.
  • Cook until a golden brown color is achieved. Normal cooking time is3 1/2minutes per pound.

DANGER

  • Do not fill past the maximum fill line marked on the pot.
  • An oil overflow may occur resulting in a fire which could cause property damage, personal injury, or death. Follow directions above to prevent this.
  • Do not place an empty cooking vessel on the appliance while in operation. Placing an empty cooking vessel on the appliance while in operation will result in melting the cooking vessel. Use caution when placing anything in cooking vessel while the appliance is in operation.

WARNING 

Avoid bumping of or impacting with the appliance to prevent spillage or splashing of hot cooking liquid. Introduction of water or ice from any source into the oil/grease may cause overflow and severe burns from hot oil and water splatter. When frying with oil/grease, all food products MUST be completely thawed and towel dried before being immersed in the fryer.

  • Remove the turkey from the oil with care and place it on paper towels in an aluminum pan.
  • Using a meat thermometer, check for an internal meat temperature of 180°F.
  • Remove turkey fryer accessory and allow the turkey to “rest” for 15 minutes to allow the juices to settle into the turkey. Slice and serve!
