Thanksgiving Perils!

[Fozzer]

I love cooking.... ....

I thoroughly enjoy cooking.... ....

Indeed, I am cooking up lovely tasty meals every day, from morning to night, seven days a week on/in my trusty Gas Stove....

...but this has got to be THE most dangerous way of cooking a meal my that my American Chums come up with!.... ....

Deep Fried Turkey!!...... ....!

The very thought of it fills me with fear!

Anything involving gallons of very hot fat/oil, water, and flames, is a terrible accident waiting to happen!

Why can't they just pop it into the oven to roast gently for a couple of hours, whilst the family opens their Thanksgiving presents.... ....!

...and no one dies!.... ....

Paul.....just preparing a nice tasty Madras Chicken curry, with basmati rice, for my supper....and my house doesn't get burnt down!..... ....!

We've had 'Turkey Deep Fryers' (type into your search engine) on sale for years, especially near holidays.
Rather like the old 'chicken and roast pressure cooker' I had over 30 years ago.
Descendants of the dinosaur, now dinnersaur, boiled in oil, under pressure...

I sticking to basting mine in butter and plenty of streaky bacon. I always think of a Les Dawson joke on cooking the Xmas dinner "I plucked and stuffed the Turkey , all SWMBO had to do was kill it and put it in the oven "

Cheers

I remember a Dublin version from the seventies.

"Stuff the Turkey's hole with holly, fallalalala."
I know it is a XMas version.Can't remember the
rest.

I cook up a ton of vegetables every day, 7 days a week, for my meals...>>>

Potatoes, Carrots, Parsnips, Leeks, Onions, Garlic, Peppers, Cabbage, etc....

...with more Garlic and Onions...Wonderful for the wellbeing of the inside of the tummy!

....and it all goes together with my Roast Chicken and Bread sauce/ Roast Beef and Mustard/ Roast Pork and Applesauce/ Roast Lamb and Mint sauce....

...and various Pastry Meat Pies, Sausages, Chops, Mince, etc....

...Herbs and Spices...

...and my proper home-made Gravy...(Copyright Worldwide)!

All done safely, (no calls to the Fire Department), on/in my trusty Gas Stove/Oven!

Paul....Roast Pork and Applesauce, plus all the veg, and gravy, for Saturday dins today!.... ...!

That looks delicious Fozzer.
A proper dinner.Not some namby pamby
disaster with three peas and a tiny squiggle
of some awful sauce.

Anthin....Salivating on my keyboard.

Yan will not be pleased to know that Porky the Pig (with the curly tail) provided the delicious treat for my Sunday Dins.... ....!

But it was very nice following my Motorcycle ride in the freezing cold.... ....>>>>

ha...did you kill the pig yourself ?......well....life is all about sacrifice isn't it....one way or another.....ha..i prefer another....been a vegie for 47 years....and would you believe it.....i'm still alive...i'm still alive ah....my wife too...........
anyways, i gave up getting a motorbike, cause we don't have the lovely scenery to drive in like you do.....all we have here are up and down logging roads, besides the highway....and i'm not into dirt bikes...my kidneys would shatter......also, the summer up here is so short......maybe next lifetime
