A Successful Thanksgiving Dinner

A Successful Thanksgiving Dinner


Thanksgiving has become a national “All-You-Can Eat” holiday, and in recent years, deep-frying has become a popular method to cook the bird.

Fire departments across the nation have reported house fires on Thanksgiving Day average three times higher than other days of the year. Don’t become a statistic! If the thought of a juicy, succulent bird for your holiday crosses your mind, remember the basics: It should be done outdoors, well clear of buildings and any other material that can burn. Fryers should only be used on a flat surface, and should never be placed on wooden decks or in garage (this includes under awnings if incliment weather is present).

Happy Thanksgiving!
