Allow excess oil or water to drain by hooking the drain clip-on basket into drain clip mounting hole (see Fig. C on pg. 6).

STARTER TIPS

  • FOR BEST RESULTS , read the following start-up tips before using this product. Remember this is an ELECTRIC unit and has different characteristics than a gas unit. Note: Watch “Butterball Electric Fryer (XL): Features and Benefits” on www.masterbuilt.com.
  • FOR SAFETY , heating element only heats up when properly attached to mounting bracket (see previous page for instructions). This is a powerful heating element and may cause circuit breaker to trip. Minimize occurrences by operating any additional appliances on a separate circuit. The tripping circuit breaker will NOT damage unit or electrical system.
  • PRE-HEATING oil or water may take up to 45 minutes. Take advantage of this time to prepare foods for cooking. For optimum performance, completely pre-heat unit to cooking temperature before frying or boiling foods. Keep lid CLOSED during pre-heating and cooking. This will reduce heating time and keep temperature more consistent.
  • POWER LIGHT (orange) will illuminate indicating a breakaway power cord is plugged into an outlet. READY INDICATOR LIGHT (green) will turn ON when set temperature is reached. The indicator light will turn on and off to reflect set temperature.

CAUTION

  • Do not use appliance without water or oil in pot. Unit can be severely damaged if heated while empty.
  • Place unit on level and stable surface to prevent tipping.
  • Hot when in use.
  • Do not overfill pot past max fill line.
  • Do not mix different types of oil at the same time.
  • Never melt fat or lard on the heating element or in basket.
  • Risk of fire and electric shock. Replace only with the manufacturer’s cord set, part number 9001150010.MASTERBUILT-MB23010618-Electric-Fryer-FIG-8

  • A. Butterball® Electric Fryer
  • B. 2.75 gallons (11 qts.) of oil. Peanut oil is recommended because of the great taste and higher smoke point but any common cooking oil may be used.
  • C. Your favorite marinade and season
  • D. Butterball® 16-18 lb. (7.26-8.16 kgs.) turkey

Rinse thoroughly with warm water or soak in a warm water bath for no more than 30 minutes to ensure cavities are free of ice.MASTERBUILT-MB23010618
-Electric-Fryer-FIG-10

Pat turkey completely dry on the outside with paper towels.

Dry inside cavities using a paper towel as shown.

If desired inject with marinade (not included). Insert 4-8 oz. into each side of the turkey breast, thigh, leg, and wing for a total of 8-16 oz.

Season inside and outside with your favorite seasoning (not included).

HOW TO FRY A TURKEY IN THE BUTTERBALL® ELECTRIC FRYER

DEEP FRIED WHOLE TURKEY

A 16-18 lb. (7.26-8.16 kgs.) turkey is recommended. However, you can deep fry up to a
20 lb (9.07 kgs.) turkey in this unit.

DO NOT EXCEED 20 lbs (9.07 kgs.).
Frozen turkeys that are to be used for deep frying should be thoroughly defrosted 35°- 40°F (1.6°- 4.4°C). The turkey must be rinsed thoroughly or soaked in a warm water bath for no more than 30 minutes to remove any possibility of remaining ice crystals and then dried thoroughly with paper towels before immersing in hot oil. This will reduce splatter.
THAWING TURKEY
Allow approximately 24 hours for every 4 lbs. (1.8 kgs.) of turkey thawed in the refrigerator.
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Ensure that the turkey is completely thawed and free of ice and water. Remove neck and giblet bag. Pay special attention to inner cavity area when checking for ice or water.

  2. Make sure drain valve is closed. Fill pot with oil to the bottom of max fill line.

  3. Set control dial to 375°F (191°C) (pre-heating time may take up to 45 minutes).

  4. Close lid on the fryer.

  5. While oil is pre-heating, prepare the turkey (see pg. 5). Inject with your favorite marinade and season the outside of the turkey with your favorite seasoning.

  6. CALCULATE COOKING TIME
    The formula for calculating turkey cooking time is to fry turkey 3.5-4 minutes per pound (0.45 kg.). Using a meat thermometer check turkey breast to ensure it has reached the appropriate cooking temperature 165°F-170°F (74°C-77°C). If you do not have a meat thermometer then fry turkey 4 minutes per pound (0.45 kg.).

  7. Ready indicator light (green) will illuminate when temperature is reached.

  8. Place turkey horizontally in basket, breast side up (Fig. A).

  9. Wearing protective gloves or mitts, hook the basket handle with the lifting hook and VERY SLOWLY lower the basket into the hot oil (Fig. B).MASTERBUILT-MB23010618-Electric-Fryer-FIG-16

  10. With basket in place, close lid.

  11. Set digital timer to calculated time (see Operating Instructions pg. 4).

  12. Be certain to cook for complete calculated time.

  13. When time is up, turn the turkey fryer to OFF and unplug from outlet. Lift the basket from the hot oil slowly, hooking the drain clip on basket into drain clip mounting hole (Fig. C).

  14. Allow turkey to rest in basket for 10 minutes before removing for carving and serving. The turkey can remain in the basket to cool until ready to serve.

NOTE: Cooking conditions vary. Insert a food thermometer 2 inches (5.08 cm) into the deepest part of turkey breast and make sure an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) is reached.

  • Unit uses slightly less than 3 gallons (12 qts.) of oil but ensure you have at least 2.75 gallons (11 qts.) of oil on hand.
  • Butterball® turkey is recommended, however if you have another brand please remove the pop-up cooking indicator and leg ties.

DEEP FRIED TURKEY BREAST

Follow the above directions and safety precautions and adjust formula to 7 minutes per pound (0.45 kg). Start at 375°F (191°C) after lowering turkey breast into unit reduce temperature to 325°F (163°C) for entire cooking time. 6 lbs X 7 min 42 min Total Cooking Time

NOTE:  Reducing temperature to 325°F (163°C) is for cooking a turkey breast ONLY Do not reduce the temperature when cooking a whole turkey.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Why won’t my fryer turn on?
    The control panel features a “Safety Switch” that must be mounted properly on the mounting bracket of the outer shell for unit to power on (see pg.3). Power light will illuminate when control panel is mounted correctly and power cord is properly attached.

  • How much oil do I need to use?
    Fryer will require approximately 2.75 gallons (11 qts) of oil max. The MAX fill line is the maximum amount of liquid that can safely be used in this unit. Filling to the line is more than enough water or oil to prepare most food in this (see pg. 7).

  • What type of oil should I use?
    Peanut oil is recommended because of the great taste and higher smoke point but any common cooking oil may be used.

  • How hot will the oil become?
    Oil will reach 375°F (191°C) in approximately 35 minutes. Oil temperature will decrease when food is placed in fryer.
    Should I keep the lid on during use?
    Yes, the lid helps retain heat, and keeps splatter inside unit.

  • Can an extension cord be used with this unit?
    No, extension cords will lose electric current resulting in increased cooking time and decreased performance. Extension cords can also pose a trip hazard.
    I followed the formula and the food did not fully cook.

  • What went wrong?
    Cooking conditions may vary. Food could have been cold. Bring food to room temperature before frying. Sometimes a cold or frozen spot does not allow that section to cook properly.
