Keep Children and Pets Away from Stoves and have a fire extinguisher and first aid kit.
If You Deep Fry the Turkey – Do it outside, on a flat surface, away from all structures or anything flammable, to a fully-thawed turkey.
Never Leave Candles Unattended and Test Smoke Alarms Ahead of Time
Make Sure the Fireplace Is Inspected Annually and that the Fluke is Open before Burning Wood
Don’t Leave Outdoor Bonfires or Firepits Unattended
Wash hands thoroughly before handling food and after contact with raw turkey
Cook turkey to an internal temperature of 165ºF and check with a food thermometer
Avoid cross-contamination between raw meat and other foods
