DANGER 

 

The Spigot and End Cap must be fully closed during cooking. 

Never touch or attempt to open the spigot if the vessel is hot. 

 

 

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR REMOVE SPIGOT. To do so may result in 

leakage of fluid (oil or water) which may result in property damage or minor to severe injury. 

 

The following safety measures are recommended when using your fry set. 

LOCATION MATTERS 

Select a safe place to fry your turkey. It should be in an open area, outside, and on a cement 
or brick surface. Place the liquid propane gas tank and fryer so that any wind blows the heat 
of the fryer away from the gas tank. Never use your fryer in an enclosed area, near a wall or 
on a wooden deck. Keep a minimum clearance of 10 feet from the sides, front and back of 
the fryer to any construction. 
 

PREPARE PROPERLY 

 

Remove and discard any thermometer buttons, leg 

holders and giblet packs contained inside the completely 
thawed turkey. Do not attempt to fry a frozen or partially 
frozen turkey. Ensure your turkey is completely thawed prior 
to proceeding. NOTES: Bass Pro turkey fryer can cook a 
turkey weight up to 18 pounds. The USDA recommends 
thawing 24 hours (1 day) for every 4-5 pounds in 
refrigerator. 

 

 

Insert the T-Star stand up through the cavity of turkey 

so that the legs are at the top.
