Congratulations Andrea! I’ve sent you an email. Enjoy your Masterbuilt Fried Turkey Thanksgiving!
Just in time for Thanksgiving, I’ve got a fun giveaway today from Masterbuilt for everything you need for a Fried Turkey Thanksgiving! Frying a turkey in hot oil definitely calls for caution, but fortunately Masterbuilt developed the Butterball Indoor Electric Turkey Fryer to achieve a perfect fried turkey with peace of mind. I had the pleasure of sampling this turkey last May at BlogHer Food in Atlanta, and I still can’t stop thinking about it. It was so rich, incredibly moist, and packed with flavor. So delicious! I knew immediately that I wanted to share this giveaway with you guys!
Check out this Cajun Fried Turkey recipe from John McLemore’s “Dadgum That’s Good” cookbook to see how easy it is to quickly fry up a turkey for Thanksgiving. The winner will receive everything he or she needs to recreate this recipe!
UPDATE: I made this Cajun Fried Turkey for Thanksgiving and it was fantastic! The fryer and recipe were so easy to use and follow. And it cooks so quickly! I love knowing that I could easily whip up another one in less than an hour. This juicy, spicy turkey was definitely the star of our Thanksgiving table this year.

Ohhh how I would LOVE to win this! Especially since my husband and I’s anniversary is November 20! :D
Picking a favorite dish is so difficult, but if I had to I would pick the simple green bean casserole. so easy, yet so delicious!
My favorite has to my grandmothers homemade stuffing and apple pie.
My favorite Thanksgiving dish WAS my grandmothers candied sweet potatoes. However, my mom and I have been unable to replicate the dish to be just like hers. Ours either come out too hard, too mushy, too much liquid, too little liquid…argh! I have come to love the Sweet Potato Souffle with the crunch corn flake/pecan topping. But it is still not the same as Granny’s candied sweet potatoes. Somehow, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to make them they way she did, not becuase I don’t have the recipe, but just because it was her hands that made them.
My Momma’s dressing and gravy! YUMMY!
Dressing all the way!
I have to say, my absolute favorite is my Grandmother Babb’s Sunday Potatoes. They are the first dish I think of (besides turkey) when I think of Thanksgiving :)
-M.
pumpkin pie!!!!
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is the dressing. I make my own and husband loves it! Oh! Let’s not forget the jellied cranberry sauce… that’s to die for!
My favorite dish is yams with See’s butterscotch kisses on top. Yummo!!!
My favorite dish is broccoli casserole :)
It’s a tie between the two most important parts of the meal…Turkey and Stuffing!!!
dressing
My fav thanksgiving dish is Praline Sweet Potato Casserole (or as my little 3yo cousin calls it – “orange candy”).
My favorite dish @ Thanksgiving has got to be my mom’s cornbread dressing. It is the absolute BEST! Can’t wait for turkey day.
My favorite is my aunt’s homemade mac & cheese with lots of extra bread crumb topping. Thanks for the chance to win this cool turkey fryer.
I love the desserts. My mother-in-law lemon chess pie is my fave.
Definitely the mashed potatoes and gravy!
I loved fried turkey – and to be able to do it inside … amazing. My favorite dishes at Thanksgiving right now is stuffing & green bean casserole. Yummy.
Mashed Potatoes = Gulity Pleasure
My favorite dish is my bff, Syd’s Yam Casserole. It is topped with coconut and pecans! Delish!
My favorite is definately the turkey…and then after Thanksgiving my dad makes the best turkey spread from it so I doubly love it!
Oh choices…choices..I could make an entire meal out of stuffing and pumpkin pie. Can hardly wait until Thursday and then leftovers!!!!
I love turkey, but I think it might be tied with stuffing! Oh I am excited to eat it all!!
My favorite dish is my Mom’s cheesy potato casserole – it’s topped with frosted flakes before it’s baked… gives it a hint of sweet & crunchy! SO good!
Stuffing!
Stuffing with giblet gravy.
My homemade cornbread dressing….. and Ancini de Pepi Salad!
I have to say I love the traditional green bean casserole with french’s dried onions- Major Comfort Food!
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is either the mashed potatoes/gravy or the desserts!
Potatos, dressing and gravy!
Stuffing definitely. I stuff best at Thanksgiving. If you know what I mean :)
My mom’s sweet potato casserole!
Broccoli Rice Casserole…yum!
I have to tell you it is — Cajun Fried Turkey since I only have it once a year – it’s too much mess to clean up and we have to do it in the backyard. We have been doing it for approx. 5 years. We went from the gas fryer (very messy) to the electric fryer w/gas (very scary). We live in DC and have a small patio backyard. It takes all winter for the greasy pavement to clean up. Would love to win this fryer.
This is an awesome giveaway! Thanks!
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is the stuffing for sure!!!!
Do I really have to pick just one dish? I look forward to the cornbread dressing.
I LOVE mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes!!! Those are my absolute favorites during Thanksgiving!
My brined turkey then cutting the breast into chunks instead of slices it doesn’t dry out and get cold too quickly.
I couldn’t narrowed it down to just one, so it would defiantly be a toss up between corn casserole and the sweet potatos!
Turkey/dressing/giblets gravy. I don’t make this very often so I look forward to it on Thanksgiving Day.
My favorite is my mom’s rice. She makes it only on Thanksgiving so it is a real treat. It has mushrooms, bacon, onion and it is delish. Can’t wait!!!
I like everything but I love turkey and since we only cook it around the holidays I would have to say its my favorite!
My family has always made potatoe dumplings…they are still my favorite even though my wife hates them and hates to make them…but she does!
I love mashed potatoes, gravy, and rolls. I rip apart my roll and dip it in the mashed potatoes and gravy. YUM! So good!
Homemade Noddles!
I love it all!! The stuffing, potatoes & gravy, cranberries, ROLLS, sweet potatoes…and for sure a turkey! Wouldn’t feel like Thanksgiving without a yummy turkey!!
Thanks for the giveaway! I would so love this! I’ve been wanting to try frying a turkey forever!
My favorite is the sweet potaote casserole…why do we only have this for Thanksgiving??
Wow! What a great giveaway! My favorite Thanksgiving dish is for sure cornbread dressing!
My Oma’s mashed potatoes! They are the best.
My favorite dish is my mom’s homemade noodles!
The dressing.
I like the mashed potatoes and the stuffing which is a recipe from my grandmother. I also like the pumpkin crisp we have after dinner.
My favorite dish to eat is candied yams; my favorite dish to make is stuffing! My mom has the best recipe (no measurements for any of the ingredients, just the name of an ingredient listed on each line). A deep fried turkey would be soooo yummy with both. Thanks for the chance to win!
My favorite dish would have to be the green bean casserole!! My all time favorite. I absolutley hated it growning up and now I love it!!!
I love all the pies!!!
Oh dear, I have to pick only one? Stuffing from the bird, with tons of gravy!
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is pumpkin pie! Oh my!
Slow Cooker Dressing…. it’s the best! I can’t wait.
It would have to be the sweet potato souffle I make and second place the pecan pies! Yummo! Great give-a-way! Hubby would love this one!
Awesome giveaway! My favorite Thanksgiving dish is a tie between apple and onion stuffin’ muffin’s or the bird itself. I love turkey!
Sweet potato cake. An old recipe from my grandmother.
yum, could you share the recipe? ive never even heard of it.
WOW! that is too cool.
My favorite dish is absolutely – without a doubt stuffing!
Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Happy Thanksgiving
Ironically it’s fried turkey. We’ve been frying turkey’s for years.
Potatos and yams!! Especially little marshmallows on top.
punkin’ pie!
Dressing! Oh, I can just about taste it!
I can’t pick one, so im gonna tell you about 2. I LOVE my mother in laws dressing, which i finally got the recipe to last year! and sweet potato cassarole, it has about an inch crust on top of brown sugar and pecans. OMG!!!
The turkey is my favorite I think. It’s not Thanksgiving without it! I’ve never fried a turkey though. Thanks!
By far it is Pumpkin Roll. it is filled with a creamcheese icing and covered in pecans with a dusting of powdered sugar!!
mashed potatoes and gravy! :)
I love everything too much to pick just one. I’m partial to the turkey though!
Without a doubt…STUFFING!
stuffing and the chocolate pie
Cheesy potatoes. The perfect side dish – full of butter, sour cream and perfectly cooked red potatoes.
My favorite is the dressing and gravy. Is that two? For me it is one, like a reece’s cup!
My favorite part of Thanksgiving is the stuffing! Oh, and pumpkin pie too :)
I love absolutely every dish on Thanksgiving. If I had to pinpoint one it would be the cornbread dressing. And I definitely could use this giveaway. Last year my dad fried a turkey and I stood by with a fire extinguisher because I was so worried. But the turkey was scrumptious.
My Grandmother’s homemade cornbread dressing is the best dish ever! YUMMY!
My favorite dish is the one my friend made. I am sure about the name, but it has the corn bread mix and corn grains and of course a lot of cheese on it. Absolutely delicious.
My Sisters cornbread dressing. It’s the best I’ve ever had.
Wow Masterbuilt, the name says it all! We know the food will be great?
My favorite thanksgiving dish would have to be Yams/ sweet potatoes cooked almost any way and my great-great grandma’s dinner rolls. They take forever to make but they are soo worth it!!
My mother’s dressing
Sweet Potato Casserole!
My favorite food at Thanksgiving would be the Cornbread Stuffing w/ cranberries & chestnuts. Paula Dean’s sweet pot. casserole recipe is awesome too.
by a long shot, it’s mashed potatoes with a little turkey on the side! :-)
My favorite dish is the sweet potato casserole! =)
Hands down…my favorite Thanksgiving dish is simply mashed potatoes & gravy…it wouldn’t be thanksgiving without it!
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is our family’s cornbread dressing. Tradition has it that a “fresh” hen has to be boiled and the broth from that goes into the dressing as well as my mom’s delicious white (un-sweet) southern cornbread! It is baked in the same large pan every year. There is one recipe and one pan – regardless of how many people will be attending the meal -five or twenty-five – the same amout is made each year! All the cooks have a little taste before it goes into the oven and the famous recurring questions is “how does it taste?” Later, one aunt always proclaims “I believe it’s the best we’ve ever had!”
I LOVE homemade dressing!!!!!
it has to be green bean casserole! i never ate it until a few years ago cause I was convinced I’d hate it, and then I realized I was missing out greatly! Now I make it all the time!
I have a sweet tooth. Is pie considered a dish? If so, I go for the pie!
Oh wow – what a cool giveaway! Thanks! Hands down, my favorite dish is the turkey, but the mashed potatoes and green bean casserole come in a close second!! I’ve never tried fried turkey, so this would be really cool!
I love my Mom’s mashed potatoes!
Mashed potatoes-hands down. I could eat them every day.
Cheesecake!
How can I choose? Stuffing, sweet potato casserole, pecan pie. Love it all.
My favorite dish has to be PW’s mashed potatoes… I don’t know how I lived before those!
Lentil and wild rice loaf – which is really my dressing!
Oooh! It’s all about the stuffing! All that carby, buttery goodness is hands down my favorite!!
