Ready for rapid turkey extraction #DFT2013
Boots, pants, coat, helmet, gloves on.
Slowly pull out…..SLOWLY!
OMFG, either this is going to go well, or really bad.
Wish me luck.
@rusnivek
Pretty smokey here….but it smells delicious!
Looking good so far! But still, worried about a gigantic fireball here at #DFT2013
Hot oil will burn you!
Seriously, take FULL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS when checking your deep fried turkey.
@rusnivek
Time to check my deep fried turkey…. Full safety precautions being used #DFT2013
@rusnivek
And of course you measured your turkey with water and IN the pot before you started heating up the oil right?
Checking your bird’s volume BEFORE you dunk it into bubbling hot oil is a smart move.
If you haven’t, here’s a few easy steps that only take 60 seconds:
Easy right?
If you did NOT measure your oil prior to frying, your pot could overflow…and this could happen to you
Don’t be crispy this Thanksgiving!
@rusnivek
Also, take a look inside your bird too.
Remove all plastic and extra giblets from inside the bird.
Cause no one likes fried plastic…
Don’t get the bird from your guests tonight…check your bird again.
@rusnivek
More checks this AM.
OMG-look what I almost forgot to pull out
It would have been disastrous if I had dropped the bird in with this plastic pop top still in.
Double check your birds BEFORE you put it in the oven or deep fryer.

@rusnivek
So I got a list that I have printed up for ready reference.
(Although a gigantic fireball would be pretty cool)
MABAS Box alarm, reported working residential structure fire…
I better not screw this up.
@rusnivek
Wait a second….who deep fries a turkey IN the garage?!?!?!
C’mon!
As a firefighter, an easy 1 3/4 line blasting away would be good.
Maybe attack crews should blast these guys too.
@rusnivek
Clearly not paying attention to safety rules.
Check out these idiots who decided to use their deck #DFT2013
Do NOT fry a turkey on your deck.
@rusnivek
So just to be clear, tomorrow, I will be lowering my turkey in.
Air bombing the turkey into my deep fryer is NOT a good idea.
#Kaboom
On a related note: I just checked my home insurance policy too.
@rusnivek
Where is @rusnivek?
