Chris Knight Fries a Turkey

Posted November 23, 2012, 11:20 p.m.

For Thanksgiving this year, my sister Kristen hosted the Bradford get-together in Roanoke, Virginia. It was her first time as Thanksgiving host, and I think it went well. A good time was had by all. Kristen’s boyfriend, Chris Knight, graciously provided the main course—a deep-fried turkey. It was very good. Thankfully there were no Shatner-style mishaps.

I took some video, which is included below. Unfortunately you can’t smell or taste the turkey over YouTube . . . but you’re welcome to try. People have done stranger things (like venturing to a mall on ‘black Friday’). Happy Thanksgiving!
