Frying a turkey on Thanksgiving can lead to home cooking fires; the U.S. sees nearly three times more fires than average on this day.
According to the National Fire Protection Association, turkey fryers are unsafe due to large quantities of hot oil, posing burn risks.
Jason Evans of the Dallas Fire Department recommends purchasing a fried turkey from restaurants or stores to ensure safety during Thanksgiving.
The Dallas Fire Department advises to never leave the fryer unattended and to always have a grease-fire-approved extinguisher nearby for safety.
