This SMOKE-FRIED CAJUN TURKEY is the Turkey for your Table this year! 

My husband really wants to make a turkey in the smoker this year. We visit your channel for ideas all the time 👏🏻

He loves smoke she loves crispy skin! I'm definitely doing this recipe. The wifey and I love watching your videos. We can only watch them while we are already eating, cause you usually make us hungry! Huge fans! Thank you for the great channel!

1:46 *Something to think about.* I wouldn't even use a clean garbage bag for cooking because if you pay attention to most garbage bags on the market today - they have a slight smell of Potpourri to help combat the garbage smell... I wouldn't want that chemical on my food. Nice video by the way. Trying this - this Thanksgiving. *;-P*

My wife and I love your videos, after watching you on TV. I used your salt and pepper only smoked turkey recipe and everyone loved it.

Frying turkeys is about the funnest thing to do. I started innocently 25 years ago. It didn't make sense to buy $20 of peanut oil for one bird so I asked my neighbors if they would like me to do one for them. The first year I did 7, the 2nd year I did 20, by the 3rd year I got my brothers involved. Now we do close to 120 for Thanksgiving, 120 for Christmas, and 120 for New Year (Not to mention various charity events). We've even been on the local news for it. If you bring the bird we will fry it. We have multiple fryers and we only charge a 12 pack of beer per turkey. We have it down to a science and we get to walk away after clean-up with a truckload of beer. On a turkey frying day I'm like a kid on Christmas morning. I wake up at 5 a.m. and can't get back to sleep. I can't wait until 8 a.m. so we can start frying. My 3 brothers feel the same way. Guests come and have a few drinks while we do their bird then take it home secured in aluminum foil, while more guests show up to do the same. You are welcome to stay all day if you like (and many do). It really is a ton of fun. Everyone that knows us somehow has a connection with the other guests even if they've never met. It is a laugh riot!! We accidently created the best backyard party ever! Can you tell how excited I am?

Nice job talking us rookies through the process, thank you!

Im trying this for Thanksgiving!

I am going to try this this year because we love smoke but my family really loves the deep fried turkey I've done for years, I think it will be the best of both worlds

Why the garbage bag? I would think when submerging the turkey in the bag the water won't fill the inside cavity which can offset the level of oil. I never use a bag when measuring. All that said, smoked, then deep fried? Genius!

OK,smoker is heating up for a 17lb'r,then going in the hot pool.Excited for this first time trying it..

Randy Marsh just lost all control 🍻

I can watch you describe food and eat all day. Lawd.

Great job,for you turkey fryer rookies please do the turkey water drop,a bigger turkey takes less oil than a smaller turkey due to the displacement and you may experience up to a couple inches of boil growth due to moisture when dropping.Had six fryers at one time and did up to 20-25 fried turkeys a year,now I use a commercial broaster ,for those who don’t know that’s just a sealed pressurized deep fryer,that I picked up cheap at an auction.The broaster just stepped it up a notch over deep frying.Will be smoking several on my Recteq 700 smoker,may have to try this method on one of mine.❤️🔥🦃👍

What did the thighs temp at?

Would it work to just smoke it (i.e. not fry it)? Also, making the smoked green bean casserole as a side this year!

Price of cooking oil this year? ?? Cook it in the smoker and enjoy.

with all of those injections you get a J-Lo turkey lol

Any oil works. I try peanut oil many times. They all the same. As long you crisp it up and it’s juicy. The outside of the bird does get crispy no matter what. shh😂

Yep you definitely have my full attention. Brilliant !!! Smoked Deep Fried Cajun Turkey. What else needs to be said. Looked amazing. Cajun injection sounds delicious. Nicely Done. Thanks for sharing. 😎🇺🇸.

Fry one in orval redenbauker popcorn oil(all it is ,is soy oil and thst butter flavor stuff) one day lol. Just for shits and giggles. Lol

Do you brine the turkey? And do you put any seasoning on the outside?? Thanks!

I’m definitely making this turkey this year! Thank you!!!!

Yay! Turkey! Thanks, Susie! 🍗❤

Just got a pellet smoker this year but I'm used to deep frying a turkey I was thinking the same way why can't you smoke and deep fry just was trying to find a video like this one seeing what temperature that cook time for each process this video gave me a ideal thank you best fryer i pick up was electric turkey fryer you have more control of the temperature time and it has a drain plug easy to get your oil out to store it also you can use it in the house too

Heyyyyyy Grill! New sub, just want you to know I found you through your chuck burnt ends vid. Mine turned out great! I have been binge watching your stuff ever since. You guys are awesome!!!!!

Thanks for another great video Susie! Your Hubby is a very lucky man your the complete package..hats off:

SUCH a great idea 💡!! Looked amazing, Happy Thanksgiving 🦃.

Awesome I have the Masterbuilt indoor fryer and will definitely try this. As well as cheese ball and pecan pie!

Can I do this with chicken breast??

Newish fan. I appreciate the recipe! Thanks for doing what you do

I love cajun turkey! We will definitely try this

SOLD!

So far I've watched tons of videos how to make a turkey by far yours is the best one so far thank you for sharing

Have you ever smoked a duck? Just curious because I thought about trying it.

This chick is a daytime 9 😍

I am so excited to make one

Can you just smoke a turkey from start to finish?

Is there a merch shop?

looks dried, 1. brine 2. temp target should be 145 because when it rest it will still heat up another 10 degree 3. Peanut blended oil smoke point is at 400+ so drop your turkey in at 390. Last but not least, stop spewing 3 to 3.5 minute per lb bs, it's more like 2 to 2.5 if you drop in turkey at 390 and target temp is 145.

thumbs up for originality
