Chicago Fire Department Demonstrates Thanksgiving Safety With Fried Turkey Fire
CHICAGO (CBS)– The Chicago Fire Department and State Fire Marshal’s Office want to make sure your Thanksgiving is safe.
On Tuesday, they demonstrated what could happen if you decide to use a turkey fryer.
If a fried turkey is on the menu this Thanksgiving, please exercise some safety tips to protect you, your family, & your property. Don’t overfill; never put a frozen turkey in hot oil; always cook outside away from any structure. Be safe and have a great holiday (Merritt). pic.twitter.com/BegZJj46pl

In addition to the garage catching fire, the grease would splatter and cause serious burns for the person cooking it.
If you’re going to use the deep fryer, make sure you’re in an open space and never put a frozen turkey into boiling oil.
Make sure to have a fire extinguisher next to you in case of a fire.
