Key Features
- Keep an eye on your oil temperature with the thermometer located on front of the deep fryer
- Unique design keeps oil from burning
- Includes 3 fryer baskets with stay cool handles
- Made in USA
This portable 8 1/2 gallon Cajun Fryer has three baskets to keep up with the demand of hungry party-goers at barbeques, tailgating parties, fish frys and other outdoor events. Each basket can hold 12 - 15 catfish filets at a time and can feed 65 - 70 people per hour including fish, fries and hush puppies! This 8 1/2 gallon fryer is even capable of frying 2 turkeys at a time for your holiday feasts. The specially designed burner / flue is positioned six inches above the bottom of the oil reserve and is at a 45 degree angle, preventing the food batter from collecting on the heating element and allowing it to fall to the bottom of the reservoir. Since heat rises, the fire burning inside of the burner / flue is able to safely heat the oil for cooking, while the temperature below it never gets hotter than 120 degrees, so it will not burn or scorch the batter. This keeps the oil clean so that you can use it repeatedly, giving you an estimated 70 percent reduction in oil use. The thermometer on the front allows you to monitor your oil temperature. A drain valve is located near the bottom of the reserve for easy cleaning.

I was skeptical first but I finally pulled the trigger and bought one. One of the best thing you can do to yourself if you fry things a lot outdoor...such as chicken , fish, fries, Turkey etc. It's been about 4 months and I have not changed the oil yet because I don't need to. The fryer pays for itself. If you like to do a backyard parties with small or big families, this is a must have. By the way I am in the midwest.

Questions & Answers
Hi Fisher. R&V Works has engineered the 8.5 gallon fryer with a very high recovery rate. They advertise that it will feed "65-70 people per hour"

Asked by Manuel | Answered by ManuelHi Richard! The weight of the FF3 is 170 pounds and the FF2 is 74 pounds, both with stands. They are not NSF approved.
Asked by Richard | Answered by RichardHi Adam. I believe the idea is that one is located higher than the other, so that you can drain the oil out for re-use without the particles at the very bottom of the fryer getting involved, and then use the bottom most drain to hose out the fryer completely.
Asked by Adam | Answered by AdamHi Kim! There is a thermometer to monitor the temperature on the top. To regulate the temperature you would open or close the needle valve on the propane tank hose.
Asked by Kim | Answered by KimHi Mary! The stand is not detachable - it must be assembled to the the fryer, and does not easily detach. The fryer is not available for purchase without the stand.
Asked by Mary B | Answered by Mary BHi Coach, this fryer has a heat potential of 90,000 BTUs.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
