Get a pot of water ready for any flare ups!

be sure to fill that baby alllll the way up before dropping the bird in from about counter-height.
Also make sure the bird is frozen totally solid before slamming it in
Edit: Goddamnit I should have read the other comments first lol. Sorry for the 1000th repeat!
We usually invite the whole family to watch the bird plopping ceremony.
From helicopter height.
Make sure the turkey is fully frozen before you put it in.
Also, since there will be a bit of oil splattering, make sure to quickly secure your lid with clamps. Hope you have a blast!
To shreds you say?
Well, how's his wife holding up?
To shreds you say?
She's good.
Just go ahead and call the fire department now. It'll save everyone time.
“Good afternoon. I would like to book 2 firetrucks and an ambulance for 3pm today. Yes, I can hold.”
Seasoning?
Monoammonium phosphate in a Class B shaker.
It’s a fire extinguisher, for those who might need to look it up (like I did)
Depending upon ventilation, if they succeed in drying it enough and not having it overflow getting it in, they might not have to worry about getting it out.
Such a setup would make me leave the premises faster than a bunch of MAGA-brain uncles could do.
I like how you're taking precautions by making sure your floor doesn't get damaged from the oil splatter. Great job!
Firehose
I'm just so glad all the comments have such useful advice for folks. I second the tips suggesting throwing it in frozen and adding more water when things get spicy.
Toss in a few plugged in power strips and extension cords to add a nice spicy flavor to everything.
I have several drunken and glib responses ranging from actual seasoning advice to something about the season of the witch. How-the-fuck-ever.....
Run. Just fucking run. Neighbors? Kids? Whatever. Run.
I suggest a nice marinade
