Slow Cooker Pot

William Shatner loves deep-fried turkey, but over many Thanksgivings and Christmases he’s made mistakes, burned himself, and nearly burned down his house. In this dramatic retelling, Bill shows us how dangerous turkey fryers can be.

   Things to remember:
   1. Read and follow directions carefully.
   2. Follow safety procedures.
   3. Be patient.
   4. If all else fails call KFC. LOL

   What’s all this about fire/flame? My electric turkey fryer has no flames
   Masterbuilt Butterball Professional Series Indoor Electric Turkey Fryer
   (model # 20010109) (No, I use it outdoors, not indoors!)

   Seriously, I’m glad to see people being warned about the dangers of deep frying a turkey.

   I just found out that William is 80 years old. o_O He’s looks forty. What’s his secret for staying young? He doesn’t even look like he had plastic surgery nor botox. o_O

    I love “the Shatner”. He’s the boss! So cool and FUNNY! Gotta love the sense of humor in this man. After years of seeing him in serious roles, the cracks me up every time. Love that man.

    I love Bill Shatner. (OK, I was a Trekkie.) Went and bought an oil-less turkey “fryer”. It comes with a dingle dangle, too!

    This is a dramatic commercial that only Bill Shatner could do justice to with his trademark persona. One thing for safety I can recommend is to have all the turkeys you plan to cook thawed and dried even before you heat up the oil. Even use a paper towel to pat them dry and set them each on a pile of paper towels or other absorbant material AWAY from the fryer. Can you get more “dingle-dangles?” one for each turkey? If so, then you can have each of the turkeys readied for frying.
