Fact #1. The best method of cooking a turkey has been hotly debated for years. Some feel that a fried turkey is vastly superior in flavor to that of a roasted turkey. Others wholeheartedly disagree. No matter which side you find yourself on, almost all agree that a fried turkey's skin is crispier. If your favorite part of this beloved bird is crunchy skin, then you'll definitely want to fry your next turkey.
Fact #2. Frying a turkey is quicker than roasting one. Roasting a turkey requires roughly 15 minutes per pound for an unstuffed bird, and 20 minutes per pound for a stuffed one. That means roasting a 10-pound turkey can take anywhere from 2.5 to 3.5 hours. Frying a turkey only requires a fraction of that time.
Fact #3. Frying a turkey also frees up a lot of space in your oven for all those fantastic side dishes you have planned. Trying to coordinate the cooking times of green bean casseroles, sweet potatoes, roasted Brussels sprouts, and corn bread while a bird is taking up your oven is a headache.
Fact #4. While cooking holiday dinners hasn't traditionally been something men get involved in, they seem to jump at the chance to fry a turkey. There's no more macho way to cook a turkey than by inserting it into a giant vat of hot oil. More often than not, frying a turkey outdoors will become a social event.
Fact #5. It seems like common sense that frying a turkey would make it more unhealthy than roasting one. This isn't technically true. If the frying is done correctly, it only slightly increases the caloric and fat content. According to a certified food nutritionist, a 4-ounce serving of roasted turkey has 241 calories and 12 grams of fat. That same size serving of fried turkey has 253 calories and 14 grams of fat. This is an insignificant difference.
