Frying isn’t just for chicken. Jazz up your turkey day with different take on deep-fried deliciousness.
"We fried a turkey using this recipe for a get together with friends and we had a blast. The turkey came out beautifully and was so moist, juicy and had an awesome flavor! This was easy and perfect. The cayenne and brown sugar were wonderful flavors to blend with the turkey. The cayenne was not spicy at all in the finished product. "

"I have to admit, I was very skeptical about this one. Having fried many turkeys over the years, I've always used a butter based recipe. This OJ-based injection was a huge hit! Very moist with a great, but not overpowering, flavor."
