A Cajun Fried Turkey shouldn't just be for special occasions -- but they are delicious at Thanksgiving and throughout the holiday season. You can really jazz up your holidays with a spicy Cajun Fried Turkey. While most locations only provide the fried birds through December, Nate's will fry one up anytime during the year. Now that's a delicious idea!
Hey, this is Texas. We like deep-fried everything! See State Fair of Texas.
I've enjoyed Cajun turkeys from Nate's, the Cajun Fried Turkey Co, and Dickey's. Baked is fine; smoked is fine. But why not kick up your Thanksgiving meal a notch by serving some Fried Turkey this holiday season. Do you really want to buy 100 gallons of peanut oil and try this yourself? I suggest you leave it to the professionals. What if you accidentally inject that Louisiana Hot Sauce into your knee? Order a turkey today and you just may save yourself a trip to the Emergency Room.
Happy Thanksgiving! And Laissez les bon temps roulez!
Important Tip: You'll need to shop early for the best selection. If you buy a frozen turkey, allow plenty of time for it to thaw properly. Gobble, gobble.
