Deep-fried Turkey With Rena

The only people who are ever interested in revival are evangelicals, and a good way of testing the quality of a man’s evangelicalism is his interest in revival. The institutional people do not often talk about revival. They try sometimes to pay lip-service to it but they do not believe in it… The true evangelical, on the other hand, is always longing for an outpouring of the Spirit, and the great evangelical reawakenings have always been a result of an effusion of the Holy Spirit. The evangelical by nature is tremendously interested in revival.

INSTRUCTIONS

Note: This recipe should be made outdoors; making it in the kitchen  is
too dangerous. Wash turkey inside and out under cold running  water;
pat dry. Finely grind bay leaves in spice grinder; transfer to  small
bowl. Finely grind thyme, oregano, and peppercorn separately;  add to
bay leaves. Mix in Creole seasoning and garlic powder. Rub 1/3  spice
mixture on inside of turkey, 1/3 under skin of breasts, and 1/3  on
outside of turkey; place in roasting pan. Cover; marinate  overnight or
up to 24 hours in refrigerator. Bring turkey to room  temperature.
Using a wooden skewer, thread neck flap securely to  bottom of turkey.
Fold wing tips under. Using steel or aluminum wire,  truss legs and
Pope's nose together securely; form a handle with  wire. This will
enable you to hold turkey while submerging in hot  oil. Heat oil in
10-gallon pot with liner basket over high heat until  temperature
registers 360 degrees on a candy/deep-fry thermometer.  Holding turkey
by handle, immerse in oil. Maintain temperature at 360  degrees while
frying. Fry until golden brown, about 45 minutes, or 3  minutes per
pound. Lift turkey from oil; transfer to a wire rack over  a roasting
pan. Drain for 15 minutes. Serves 10 to 12.  Source: "Martha Stewart
