Even when checking temps, I have full PPE on. 

  
Fire Gloves are definitely a necessity.  

@rusnivek

All safety precautions for taking the bird’s temperature.

  
Target temp is 165. 

Fry baby fry!

@rusnivek

Try to keep the lid on to maintain temperature and reduce the amount of hot oil and flare ups. 

  
As you know, a gigantic fireball isn’t a good idea. 

  
@rusnivek

Captain! It’s splashing all over the place!!!!

  
Proper PPE

Gloves on 

Eye protection

Turnout gear

I’m going to die!

@rusnivek

Here. We. Goooooooooo!

  
@rusnivek

I sent my drone up for Overlord aerial observation of my turkey op.

  
Hoping things don’t end up in a gigantic ball of flame!

@rusnivek

I’m gonna die

   
 @rusnivek

Glug glug! 

  
@rusnivek

Measured the oil fill line with water WITH the bird.

  
Just to make sure we didn’t over fill and have major splash over.

@rusnivek

Just one of the plethora of extinguishers onscene.

  
I also have a hose line pulled. 

OMGosh, I hope I don’t die.
