AB's Turkey Derrick

Ask any professional fire fighter - they'll tell you -- every Thanksgiving they answer a slew of emergency calls... Maybe you've seen the videos of decks or houses going up in flames because of careless turkey frying?

After some thinking, sketching, a few trips to the hardware store... the Turkey Derrick was invented as an ideal way to intelligently and safely fry a bird.

Download the instructions to construct the derrick and fry the bird. Be patient, it's about a 2 meg pdf.
