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 2 fryer baskets with stay cool handles
- Made in USA
This portable four gallon Cajun Fryer has two 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 8 - 10 catfish filets at a time and can feed 25 - 30 people per hour including fish, fries and hush puppies! 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. For portability, it comes with a stand with 8-inch wheels.

Easy to assemble, easy to clean and easy to transport. I love how easy it is to keep the oil temperature at a cooking level.

Works great. The only thing I wish it had was a proper cover. The small top only cover doesn't really protect it from the elements on the deck.

Could not have purchased a more durable fryer. Great for our family/neighbor fish fries. Worth the wait due to COVID shutdowns. Customer service was on spot with assistance.

For the price I would expect a better finish and higher quality workmanship fryer brand new out the box with blemishes and very poor paint quality, was full of metal shavings, and oil drain ball valve handle runs into exhaust so it will melt the handle and be to hit to touch very disappointing for the amount of money spent.
Questions & Answers
Remove the propane tank, drain the grease. You will need a couple people to load. Not so heavy but cumbersome. If you don't mind that then there you go. To me would be a real pain
Asked by Rob | Answered by RobYou should be able to move the fryer pretty easily. Can transport in 2 pieces and has a drain so oil can be drained before transport.
Asked by Rob | Answered by RobThis is well built so is kind of heavy. We transport but drain oil and clean first because once it tipped over and made a mess. I would strongly recommend
Asked by Rob | Answered by RobWell it is easy to dis-assemble and assemble but it is a little heavy and you need to drive slow so the grease does not splash around to much.
Asked by Rob | Answered by RobWithout oil and removing the fryer from the stand ..... 1 person can load it into a pick up.Sent via the Samsung Galaxy S8 Active, an AT&T 5G Evolution capable smartphone
Asked by Rob | Answered by RobI am not sure how heavy it is but you should be able to do what you want without much trouble.
Asked by Rob | Answered by RobHi John, the shelf is designed to fit on the left side only.
Asked by John | Answered by JohnHi Keith! There is a thermometer on the front of the fryer to show you the temperature you are at. You will regulate the temperature by using the needle valve, opening the valve to increase the temperature.
Asked by Keith | Answered by KeithHi Brandon. The 4-gallon Cajun Fryer takes approximately 12-14 minutes to reach cooking temperatures when using liquid propane gas. Natural gas will take longer to heat the oil, environmental temperatures will also play a factor in heating times. This fryer does not include a cover.
Asked by Brandon | Answered by BrandonHi Karsten. As long as your fryer is protected from the elements you could get several months of use, depending on how often you fry. Filtering your oil at least once a month will help keep the foods you fry tasting good as well. You'll know it's time to change your oil if it's become clouded, foams up or has a rancid taste/smell to it.
Asked by Karsten | Answered by KarstenHi Mike, there is a drain to remove oil, the fryer can then be cleaned with water.
Asked by Mike | Answered by MikeHi, Wilma. The interior and exterior are made of 12-gauge carbon steel with a high temperature coating.

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.
