William Shatner singing about deep-fried turkey. It’s allegedly a safety thing, but the song sticks in your head after a while.

better than the latest star trek.

At my work, we studied the original of that with an eye on the dangers of the fires.

In the US they just drop a whole bloody Turkey in a pot of boiling oil, over a gas ring.

What could possibly go wrong?

There is a variation where you stick a can of beer up the turkey – as the heat increases, the can explodes, marinating the turkey. You’d think the shreds of metal would hurt your teeth though…

I would never have believed such a thing existed. A deep fried whole turkey????

America never ceases to amaze me.

I’ve had deep fried turkey and its actually really nice. Not really what you would expect.
Really moist and tasty.

Better than the dried up stuff most people here manage to cook.

Brilliant – I’m not going to sleep tonight because of that song

Oh, and I’m hungry as well now 🙁

Edit: great, now I’ve got buttery biscuit bass going as well. Off to hit the Caol Ila
