There’s another, more gut-level (groan) reason we love Frymaster fryers, though: we love fried food!  If you share this affinity and you happen to hail from the Lone Star State like some of us do, you absolutely cannot miss the State Fair of Texas, with their annual Big Tex Choice Awards contest.

If you crave crunching on the crispy, golden batter of a chicken finger savor the piping-hot steam that wafts out of a fresh egg roll, the State Fair of Texas is your ticket.  Essentially, if it can be battered and deep-fried, it will be available for mass consumption at the State Fair of Texas.  Some foods available at last year’s fair include deep-fried peanuts, fried apple and peanut butter on a stick, which consists of slices of apple dipped in caramel, peanut butter, and butter (and subsequently and naturally fried), and, most spectacularly, Texas Bar-B-Que Boomerangs, which feature barbecued brisket stuffed in won tons…and, awesomely, deep-fried.

This fare, while remarkable, cannot compete with the Big Tex Choice Awards, which pits a number of remarkably novel (fried) foods against each other.  Among last year’s entries were deep-fried butter, fried pecan pie, fried peanut butter cup macaroons, and, we kid you not, country-fried pork chips.  Yes, chips.

Just writing about this is getting us itching to bust out the old Frymaster EH1721 and whip up some Texas-sized funnel cakes!  We don’t know what they’re using to cook up that food, but we wouldn’t be surprised to learn that some of our restaurant equipment was involved.

Frymaster Fryers: A Fryer For Every Occasion

Frymaster fryers come in a variety of capacities, ranging from the slim, efficient 17-liter GF14-SD-Nat to the heavy-duty EH1721 fryer, which boasts of a roomy 80-lb frying area.  In addition to the range of fryers available, many Frymaster models are capable of being batteried together to form an extensive frying station, which is a perfect option for very busy or rapidly growing kitchens.

Frying Green With Frymaster

However, regardless of the size needed, one thing doesn’t change: Frymaster’s proud commitment to Operation Green, a multifaceted, savvy program employed to help restaurant operators use less energy and water.  On the design end of things, Frymaster designs efficient, energy-rated models that can save up to 25% of the energy that other models might use.  But they don’t stop there.  They also have formulated the Enerlogic list of energy efficient appliances so that customers know which buys are the smartest.  Finally, they have listed a comprehensive series of guidelines and tips on their web site to help operators conserve energy.  Operation Green is a great approach, and just like the deep cold zone in all Frymaster fryers, it serves multiple purposes: in addition to helping to save the planet, they’re helping you save the money in your wallet.
