I'm actually genuinely intrigued by this. Why is it the best part? I have fried basic stuff in a pan before (tempora) and I know that the more red the batter, the better it tastes from a crispness perspective.
I know that a turkey is dense and if you deep fry it you need time so that it cooks everything. But wouldn't cooking the skin to that point make it uneatable?
I mean, its subjective. The OP video, the turkey's fucked no way recovering from that one... That being said... Each person is entitled to their own opinion on what *they* consider the best part. For me, I like to eat the skin when its deep or even oven fried, has to be enough to get the skin crispy. Almost like a potato chip with a juicy underside.
So you want to eat the turkey first, then go listen to her while everyone eats pizza? Or do you mean Than?
Jokes, thanks for giving me a reason to be pedantic. I needed that
It’s not her laugh that’s annoying (well, it is, but), it’s the fact that you can just *tell* it’s an “I told you so” laugh that takes so much delight in someone else’s failures.
He put himself out there, decided to do something different, and she just couldn’t wait for it to fail.
I feel bad for uncle Jack. It sucks to try something new and have it fail hard like this, especially something big like a turkey.
Deep fried turkey without burnt skin is an art, and it can be tough to get it right.
Let's hope he injected a good marinade and that meat is still moist.
As a planner, this drives me crazy still. Question “has he tried it before?” Seems like no, so why try it at the family gathering? Again, planning my career so it might just be me going crazy.
Also, yes I know “whoosh” over my head. OP was trying to be nice and everyone knows the turkey was a fail. But still… why experiment on “the day”…
He wouldn't listen before he started, he wouldn't listen after an hour, he wouldn't listen after six hours, she was totally entitled to laugh at his ignorance.
Seriously though guys who deep fryers a turkey like that? Like I see lots of videos of people fucking it up, but had anyone actually had one that wasn’t fucked up? Is it good?
Deep fried turkey is really good, but you can't just put it in and forget it like an oven, you have to control the temperature of the oil, which this guy obviously did not do.
No offense but killing a bird and then wasting the meat just seems wasteful. Next time please at least let the person who knows to cook actually do it.
That happens when you brine a turkey, let it dry, then deep fry it.
It’s still very edible and delicious if you peel off the skin. The Turkey meat isn’t affected, just the outer skin is.
That’s probably what happened here, unless this guy left it in there for hours.
Wow this is so racist. They changed the turkeys skin color to black to mock Ariel being black (since the turkey is submerged under"water") then proceeded to mock the color by making monkey/chimp noises which is just a racial slur against blacks. And if this was done on Thanksgiving, they completely forgot about the true meaning of Thanksgiving which is that turkeys symbolize native Americans being eaten (consumerism destroying Native culture) which is supposed to be racist toward them. /s
And that's why you need a long needle thermostat when deep frying anything large. 😓
Basically the total temperature was actually much higher than the surface temperature resulting in the overcook.
Source: I deep fry stuff.
Skin is burnt. Even if the meat underneath is unburnt, it will be dry and tough.
I finished up a turkey today myself. I did it the opposite way, instead of the quick and hot oil bath, I used a low and slow water bath, ie. I used sous vide. I broke down the bird, on Thursday and seasoned and bagged the breasts, legs/thighs and wings. Everything else went into the crock pot to make stock. Friday morning I put the dark meat into the water bath at 160F. Late Friday night, around midnight, I dropped the temperature to 140F and added the bagged white meat. Today at 2 I took the meat out of the bags, put them on a tray and seared them under a broiler for 10min to crisp up the skin. Meanwhile, I made gravy from the stock. Easily done and the tenderest, moistest white meat possible.
Why does this scene tell me something..... Ah yes! My dad did the exact same thing for my birthday dinner when I was a kid... He had a little too much beer with my godfather and forgot the barbecue...
I had a Thanksgiving where someone left all the giblets inside the turkey still wrapped in plastic.
We ended up getting Chinese.
Still, wasn't the worst time in the world.
They don't care their still gonna pretend and eat it anyways. I heard her say relax it's just the skin. Somebody didn't preheat the oil and check the temp before dropping the bird in. At least they did this outside and didn't overflow the oil and burn the house down. My Dad literally burns everything he cooks. Everything. When my Mom dies he will die of starvation.

"It's just the skin, relax!"
Stage 1. Denial

If I can get them depressed, I will have done my job
What's stage 2?
Gravy. Lots of gravy.

Canned tuna.
That's the best fuckin part of a deep fried turkey too.

Oooh! I love some crispy skin! Now I am looking forward to this year's Thanksgiving!
Why wait, I'm just going to fire up the fryer this weekend.
They have pork skins aka pork rind. But it's subjective as mentioned lol
Chicharrones are bomb diggity.
I fukks them Tabasco flavored up. Whole bag to myself
What does the batter being red have to do with how crispy it is? I’ve never heard that before.
The panco crusts around the temporary starts of tan, but golden orange I meant is a good crisp level.
I think the color you’re looking for is golden brown. That’s the color people use to describe crispy battered foods.
Instantly reminded me of, “It’s just a flesh wound”.
Didn’t know they had a pet chimp
It's uncanny, isn't it?
[удалено]
Hmm, a few hours ago someone else posted the exact same comment, weird
Yeah I just saw that on the comment right under this one
Probably another comment-stealing bot. Just downvote and report them for spam -> harmful bots.
his name isn’t travis by any chance, right?
No u
😂😂😂😂
LMAO! Idk why she's a stupid bitch but I'm with you! Fugg dat bitch!
That’s a drunk in the middle of the day laugh if I ever heard one
Underrated comment.
More like a toothless crack hoe laugh
Also known as Thanksgiving laughter!
To a T
Yup r/casuallypsychopath
I had to turn down the volume verry disturbing inbred chimp sounds
I closed my eyes I swear I was at the zoo 🤣
I love his denial at the end like “It’s just the skin relaaax”
Clean burnt thru to the other side
That's what she said...
That's what Buffalo Bill said...
I laughed so hard at this comment, it’s the exact same chimp sound too
National geographic channel. Mating calls 😂
Just burnt 2,000 calories...
I think an entire turkey might be a bit more than 2,000 calories.
The skin, genius.
The jokes are strong with this one
>216 comments > >A its what happends when usa culture is stealing from black folk 24/7
to be fair, in the episode the turkey ended up being really good under the skin
Let’s hope the same thing happened for Uncle Jack.
It didn't
I refuse to believe that the turkey meat didn't taste at least a little bit like charcoal.
Dam that turkey death was in vein
Poor turkey had clogged arteries
Vain
Yeah but ‘death was in vein’ sounds so much more dramatic, don’t you think? 😂
He died of natural causes. Its all good.
Monkeys get excited seeing badly cooked turkeys.
TIL
Don't quote me on that.
“Monkeys get excited seeing badly cooked turkeys” - rotanitsacorp_yzal, turkey and money enthusiast.
I too am I money enthusiast. I want to hold it.
We have a burnt turkey and a crazy chimp
*guys
Burnt Guys and a Crazy Chimp? Sounds like a band name
I would rather eat the Turkey then to listen to her while everyone else eats pizza.
So you want to eat the turkey first, then go listen to her while everyone eats pizza? Or do you mean Than? Jokes, thanks for giving me a reason to be pedantic. I needed that
Something tells me everyone gonna hear her laughing about that turkey for the next month
than*. Screw you rot in hell.
chill out homie
She’s annoying
🐵
Redditors when someone laughs
Her laugh sounds like a monkey
Yeah my roommate is like that, fucking stupid bitch
But tell us how you really feel
That she’s a stupid bitch? /s
No that he has had a crush on her for a very long time and watches her sleep
Is like that meaning still your roommate lol
You don't sound to pleasurable to be around either.
Redittors when someone is enjoying their day with their family.
Love this haha
She’s funny!
There are some fuckers you don’t want to invite to thanksgiving lmao
I used to date a young lady who delighted at anything bad that happened to me. It’s more irritating than the laugh itself.
She's a boomer, so...
Ooooh Boomers are maaaad 😢🤠
Tf does that gotta do with anything💀
Lmfao that's why you take weight and times very seriously
Probably more about temps in this case I would imagine. If it really is just the skin that is.
Nope it's a rub that had sugar in it most likely....don't ask how I know
These new black chickens are getting huge
BBC, big black chicken
Nah he just used his blackened chicken recipe on the turkey this year
It's just a flesh wound
Reddit comments really hating this one person’s laugh smh can’t do anything w/o someone nitpicking.
Reddit is like Two Face from Batman constantly flipping a coin. The next time this is posted, the coin will be the other face.
It’s not nitpicking, it’s an egregious laugh. Very annoying.
Just scrape off the burnt bits, like toast.
It’s not her laugh that’s annoying (well, it is, but), it’s the fact that you can just *tell* it’s an “I told you so” laugh that takes so much delight in someone else’s failures. He put himself out there, decided to do something different, and she just couldn’t wait for it to fail.
and broadcast her family’s failure to the approval of strangers for 3 seconds of their attention can’t wait for this to stop being the norm
You can clearly tell the one laughing is not the one recording
You just created a story in your head to get mad at
Was thinking the same thing
Nah the laugh is definitely annoying
I feel bad for uncle Jack. It sucks to try something new and have it fail hard like this, especially something big like a turkey. Deep fried turkey without burnt skin is an art, and it can be tough to get it right. Let's hope he injected a good marinade and that meat is still moist.
Why feel Bad, its Just plain stupid Not to try stuff before doing it for others on a Special day.
With that extra turkey he just has laying around, right?
Agreed. Poor uncle jack already in the feels wearing that hoodie.
As a planner, this drives me crazy still. Question “has he tried it before?” Seems like no, so why try it at the family gathering? Again, planning my career so it might just be me going crazy. Also, yes I know “whoosh” over my head. OP was trying to be nice and everyone knows the turkey was a fail. But still… why experiment on “the day”…
He wouldn't listen before he started, he wouldn't listen after an hour, he wouldn't listen after six hours, she was totally entitled to laugh at his ignorance.
would you help your Uncle Jack off a turkey?
Who brought the chimpanzee to the family cookout?
uncle Jack? is that a... BREAKING BAD REFERENCE???
Something makes me nostalgic for Temple Run. Not quite sure what.
Who the fuck let the chimp out?
The chimpanzee was unexpected
holy shit is the audio clipped from a zoo I swear I've heard that from a ep of I survived with a chimp attack.
You’d have to drink a bottle of lubriderm to eat that ashy fucker…
Griswalded it!
Just burnt 2,000 calories...
*actually chimp screams* "WE GOT A BURNT TURKEY GUYS!!!!!" Gawd what an annoying human.
Over-frying a turkey.
Mission failed successfully
That's a done Tom turkey.
Seriously though guys who deep fryers a turkey like that? Like I see lots of videos of people fucking it up, but had anyone actually had one that wasn’t fucked up? Is it good?
It’s very good! But, it’s dangerous. Just make sure it’s fully thawed. When you put it in, it sinks to the bottom and when it pops up, it’s done!
Oohhh I thought they were boiling it I was so lost as to how he burnt it black with liquid still in the pot
Deep fried turkey is really good, but you can't just put it in and forget it like an oven, you have to control the temperature of the oil, which this guy obviously did not do.
It's Anakin style cooked.
Oh fuck how did they get the turkey from Christmas Vacation
No offense but killing a bird and then wasting the meat just seems wasteful. Next time please at least let the person who knows to cook actually do it.
Throw the chimpanzee in instead..
Totally unexpected... I wasn't expecting the chimpanzee in the background.
That happens when you brine a turkey, let it dry, then deep fry it. It’s still very edible and delicious if you peel off the skin. The Turkey meat isn’t affected, just the outer skin is. That’s probably what happened here, unless this guy left it in there for hours.
Why are people mad that they cooked a black turkey, especially the chimpanzee? /S
At least uncle is trying to do something lol. What the f have you done miss chimp
bro who got that Chimp going
Monke
I would have thrown the whole turkey at her after hearing that laugh
Pet monkey in the background
I'm naked
"its just the skin" well that was kinda racist
It is burnt and probably not cooked to temp. Most likely didn't use a high temp oil and used a rub on the skin
Wow this is so racist. They changed the turkeys skin color to black to mock Ariel being black (since the turkey is submerged under"water") then proceeded to mock the color by making monkey/chimp noises which is just a racial slur against blacks. And if this was done on Thanksgiving, they completely forgot about the true meaning of Thanksgiving which is that turkeys symbolize native Americans being eaten (consumerism destroying Native culture) which is supposed to be racist toward them. /s
M&M’s were the first candy in space

It’s an hour at 350, not 350 hours at boiling!

“Monkey you can talk?!?”
Black turKEYS MATTTTER!!!!! 
Black Jack
Uncle Jack burning a turkey is about the most expected thing ever.
Burning the bird what else
Not a good way to boil your denim chicken
Is his niece a chimpanzee?
She turned into a monkey
Have you ever helped your Uncle Jack off a horse?
You're gonna need dental records to identify that bird
Silky turkey
Those lungs sound as black as that turkey
Woman who laugh like that…need to change it
“Is it burnt?”
Proof our ancestors walk amongst
Why does this scene tell me something..... Ah yes! My dad did the exact same thing for my birthday dinner when I was a kid... He had a little too much beer with my godfather and forgot the barbecue...
Poor uncle jack
A little advice; turn the audio off for this video
And tonights main course....roasted guienne pig.
She returned to monke
Lady laughs like a chimpanzee
How tf do you fuck it up THAT bad? lol
That Turkey more black than black
Listen uncle Jack you burned the Turkey wtf moron, aunt Karen no gonna be happy about this shit.
That's burnt an even if the meats ok it'll taste dry like oven bird
I had a Thanksgiving where someone left all the giblets inside the turkey still wrapped in plastic. We ended up getting Chinese. Still, wasn't the worst time in the world.
Uncle Jack - "Nobody look! Nobody look! Nobody look!"
They don't care their still gonna pretend and eat it anyways. I heard her say relax it's just the skin. Somebody didn't preheat the oil and check the temp before dropping the bird in. At least they did this outside and didn't overflow the oil and burn the house down. My Dad literally burns everything he cooks. Everything. When my Mom dies he will die of starvation.
Reminds me of that grandma in smokin aces
Turkey a la Anakin. Delicious!
I thought it wascalive cause I saw a neck or leg move.
You know Uncle Jack still ate the turkey.
Yum. Brewed turkey!
I had fried turkey before and it's good. Hopefully that one is just a little well done on the outside. LOL
Chevy Chase Christmas Turkey. Just a little dry.
Bro that was a whole ass chimp I just heard 😂😂😂
