Product Description
Delicious deep fried foods - fast and easy! Uses just six cups of oil and maintains perfect frying temperature automatically. Snap-on lid stores oil to use again and again. 120 volts, 60 Hz only
Amazon.com
In the homespun days, food was usually fried in a big cast-iron metal pot. But modern times demand simpler solutions. The Presto GranPappy electric deep fryer fits on a countertop and is so easy to use. Just add oil, plug it in, and in 15 minutes it's heated up and ready to fry. Its sleek, black bucket shape matches form to function-- simple and classic.
The GranPappy holds up to six cups of oil or three pounds of shortening, and it can accommodate up to six servings of food at a time. The internal thermostat keeps the oil at the optimum frying temperature. An accompanying scoop, slotted for draining, is for lifting food in and out or for turning food halfway through the cooking time. The power cord has a magnetic safety connection, so that if the unit is jostled during cooking, the cord will disconnect, shutting power off immediately. After straining the used oil, it can be poured back into the unit and stored, covered by the accompanying snap-on plastic lid.
After frying, unplug the unit and allow it to cool completely before attempting to empty oil. Wash the GranPappy with warm, sudsy water and dry it thoroughly; it is not immersible. To preserve the nonstick finish, inside and out, do not use steel wool or harsh, abrasive cleansers. The Presto GranPappy measures 8 by 8-1/2 inches. Presto guarantees this product with a one-year limited warranty. A simple instruction and recipe sheet is enclosed. --Garland Withers

"Why do you want a deep fryer? It's unhealthy. It's going to make a mess. Are you going to clean it?"
Sound familiar?
I decided to buy this model in specific, because I determined through LOTS of reading that it's going to be EASY TO OWN. Meaning, I think I can mitigate the mess with some good quality Costco paper towels AND cleaning it should be easy, it's only 2 parts. And I was right! Cleaning it takes 2 LITERAL minutes, if you have a hand-held sprayer (on your sink) like I do, cleaning this thing is a snap. Just make sure you have Dawn dish soap. That stuff kills oil quick!
To give you an idea of the capacity in real-world units, I used to work in a restaurant. A SERIOUS handful of frozen fries equaled 1 portion. Serious, meaning the fries are in your hand, but good luck with that grip. If you don't get them into the oil, they'll be on the floor. Got me? Anyway, this unit will EASILY cook 3 portions using the mentioned method. I've made a dozen Nathan's onion rings at once and I've also been able to fit 8 Gortons beer batter fish fillets at once.
I've been using Vegetable Oil (ALDI has the best deal!) and I have been getting 3-4 uses out of the oil, BUT I also purchased a Funnel/Strainer to "clean the oil" before I put it back in the original bottle. B08L3S1KVJ is the model I purchased from Amazon and it works great and it's super easy to clean.
So yeah, quit listening to your wife.
You know what your stomach wants. It's only $39!
You've wasted more than that on other junk.
And your wife has thrown away way more than that on shoes/clothes/Costco, etc!
It's not an impulse buy, it's not a mistake.
It's a great purchase and from what I can tell from the reviews, it should last me for years.
And to those of you always trying to sniff out a fake review... I'm sure by now some of you have your Spidey-senses tingling with this review. I swear, I'm a real person, I'm not being paid, I have nothing to do with the company that makes any of the stuff I've listed. I just like to give thorough reviews. Any questions, I'm happy to answer them! :)
NOTE: Once I have a chance to do chicken wings I will update this review. It seems there are a bunch of people having problems. My initial thoughts are that their technique needs to be changed a bit, but I'll know for sure once I try it.
UPDATE 4/21/21 - I have stopped using Vegetable Oil, as I only get 3-4 uses out of a bottle of oil. I'm now using Canola Oil and to my shock, not only is it cheaper to buy, but I'm up to 6 uses and the oil is still holding up! The Vegetable Oil was "fine", but it was turning brown too quickly. Still haven't made wings yet, but I'm making fried fish sandwiches with fries and onion rings every Friday night. Purchased some spring rolls at Costco that were supposed to be baked, put them in the fryer - BAM - 5 minutes and they're perfect!
NOTE2: I was originally letting it heat up for about 15 minutes (like everyone here says to) and that's just too long. I have settled on exactly 8 MINUTES of preheat. I ordered an instant read thermometer, when it gets here I'll determine if I need to bump it up another minute or 2. For now, 8 seems to be the sweet spot. I think that's why some people are disintegrating their chicken wings. Just my thoughts.
UPDATE 5/22/21 - Now that my thermometer finally got here, I can confirm I nailed the timing @ 8min to 350F! If you're following the directions and waiting for 15 minutes, I can't imagine how hot the oil must get. 400F maybe? I still haven't done chicken wings (long story), but I promise I will update this review as soon as I do. I suggest you try to throw your wings in @ the 8min mark and seeing if that does the trick. Of course with that said, your mileage may vary. It COULD take YOUR unit 15 minutes to heat up. As with all things, use your best judgment. :)
PS: 3 MONTHS IN AND I'M STILL LOVING MY GRANPAPPY!
First, let's talk about simplicity. Using the GranPappy is like taking a walk in the sweet Georgia sunshine. It heats up quickly, and with its no-fuss design, we're ready to fry up hushpuppies, fried chicken, and okra in a jiffy. It's like a shortcut to Southern comfort on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
The consistent, golden-brown results are a dream come true. Whether it's catfish or beignets, this deep fryer gets the job done, making it feel like we've transported our kitchen to the heart of New Orleans.
The compact size is a gem. It's like a good ol' Southern porch swing – cozy and inviting. It doesn't take up much space, so we can easily store it when not in use. But trust me, it doesn't stay stored for long in our home!
Durability is where the GranPappy truly shines. It's built tough, like a seasoned farmer, ready for another season of harvest. We've used it for years, and it's still frying like a pro.
In conclusion, if you're a Southerner who understands the true joy of deep-fried goodness, the Presto 05411 GranPappy Electric Deep Fryer is your best friend in the kitchen. It's like having a Southern chef right by your side, ensuring your culinary creations are crispy, delicious, and oh-so-Southern. From fried pickles to funnel cakes, this fryer is a taste of the South you can't live without. Bless your heart and your taste buds with this essential kitchen tool! 🍤🍗🍩😋
Top reviews from other countries
First and foremost, the performance of the Presto GranPappy is outstanding. It quickly heats up to the desired temperature, ensuring that my food cooks evenly and achieves the perfect golden crispness. The 1,500-watt heating element is powerful enough to handle various types of food, from French fries and onion rings to chicken wings and even doughnuts. Each batch comes out beautifully cooked and mouthwateringly delicious.
The GranPappy's simplicity and ease of use are also noteworthy. With its straightforward design and easy-to-follow instructions, even those new to deep frying can achieve excellent results. The compact size and lightweight construction make it convenient to set up and store, taking up minimal counter space.
Cleaning the deep fryer is a breeze as well. The non-stick surface ensures that food residue doesn't stick, making it easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth. The removable heating element adds to the convenience, allowing for thorough cleaning without any hassle.
One of the standout features of the GranPappy is its temperature control. The adjustable thermostat allows precise temperature settings, giving me the flexibility to cook different types of food to perfection. The built-in indicator light signals when the fryer has reached the desired temperature, eliminating any guesswork and ensuring consistent results.
Safety is a top priority, and the GranPappy delivers on that front too. The exterior stays cool to the touch during operation, reducing the risk of accidental burns. The convenient slotted scoop provided with the fryer allows for safe food handling without the need for additional utensils.
In terms of durability, the Presto GranPappy is built to last. The sturdy construction and high-quality materials inspire confidence in its longevity. I can tell that this deep fryer is designed to withstand regular use and provide reliable performance for years to come.
Overall, I highly recommend the Presto 05411 GranPappy Electric Deep Fryer to anyone who enjoys homemade deep-fried treats. Its exceptional performance, user-friendly design, easy cleaning, and temperature control make it an excellent investment. Treat yourself to restaurant-quality fried foods in the comfort of your own home with this remarkable fryer.
I hope this review helps others discover the joy of cooking with the Presto GranPappy Electric Deep Fryer. Embrace the crispy and delicious world of homemade deep-fried goodness!
The best deep fryer for home/family use. My mom's had one for many years now and I now know why. Easy to use and store away as compared to the bigger heftier oil fryers out in the marketplace. This heats up quickly every time and fantastic for cooking. It has no temperature regulator so you cannot set temperatures. However. Very easy to clean and dump out used oil. The cord is attached at the base magnetically so you can detatch the cord also for easy storage.
It comes with a plastic lid on top. Bottom line since it is such a simple unit it works wonderfully.
As such I leave you with a fried chicken recipe below with respect to using this (and all types of) fryer...
"The secret to good fried chicken is a real crisp skin.This is a great little fryer, but with chicken you need an extra yet worthwhile step to have the best fried chicken you ever smacked your lips around. This fryer does that but not if the bone-in chicken is raw, the temp of this fryer is too high for raw, bone-in chicken and what happens is undercooked chicken, even legs. But there is a way to get around that and it makes the chicken much better anyway.
What you need to do is place the pieces of chicken you want to fry in a pot, cover with cold water, add salt to taste and, what I like is a healthy dose of Tabasco sauce. Enough to change the water color and to smell its aroma. You can use whatever herbs or spices you want to impart in the flesh if you like. Bring the cold water with chicken and flavors to a boil uncovered. Once it comes to a boil, remove the chicken, do not boil too long. Let it sit out to dry, it only takes a minute or two for the hot chicken to dry itself, Then, however you want to coat it, I dip the chicken in buttermilk and then flour. Let that sit at least fifteen minutes, as long as it does to let the oil come up to temperature, this gives enough time for the buttermilk and flour to adhere, making less mess in your oil and a better crust. Fry three pieces at a time if you like but no more, it doesn't take long to bring it to a beautiful golden color. Place it on a rack, never on paper towels to drain, that will keep your chicken crisp on both sides. Once cooled slightly, plate it and you'll have yourself some real good fried chicken."
