Deep Fried Turkey

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving............mine was so....so.....I had trouble deep frying the turkey. First, I was concerned that one would not be enough, so I bought 2. I got the peanut oil up to 350 degrees like everyone said. The problems started when I got the first turkey within about 5 feet of the hot oil...........it flew off.....so did the second one. I don't know what I did wrong??????

Really, it was awesome. Great family get together and food was perfect. My kids tricked me into taking some pictures............here is one of them...Seems as though, I was the only one that didn't know to make a funny face...........left to right: oldest daughter, daughter in law, son, my fat azz, and my youngest daughter.
