How long does it take to fry a 9.5 lb turkey breast?

Answer 1

Depends on whether it's stuffed/unstuffed, frozen or thawed, and how you're cooking it (in a bag, covered, etc.), what temperature you cook at, etc.

Turkey needs to reach a temperature of 170 degrees at the breast and 180 at the thigh. Any more and you risk drying out the meat. Generally, turkeys are cooked at 325-350 degrees in an oven and have their own thermometers, but you should have your own as they don't always work.

Answer 2

Assuming you're cooking in a covered deep fryer, the oil was preheated to 350 degrees before placing the turkey in the oil and the oil has returned to 350 when you start timing, it should take 34 minutes.

It's important to monitor the temperature throughout the process. Too low and the turkey won't get cooked, and turkey normally has salmonella (food poisoning). Too high and the oil can catch fire -- don't let the temperature get above 380.

The general cooking time rule is 3 minutes per pound plus 5 minutes and don't deep fry a turkey weighing more than 15 pounds.
