Best Deep Fryer Reviews

The Presto 05411 GranPappy Electric Deep Fryer is very similar to Presto’s FryDaddy but in a somewhat larger profile. As far as deep fryer’s go they don’t really come much simpler than the GranPappy. It’s basically a metal pot that heats up oil. There’s no thermostat control as the unit automatically heats oil to good a temperature for frying. People who want more control over their frying will likely not like this feature of the GranPappy but for basic frying needs this is a budget priced fryer that performs exactly as it is intended to.

Included with the Presto 05411 GranPappy Electric Deep Fryer
is a large slotted scoop for lower food into the oil and retrieving the food when it is finished. There is no basket to hold the food but there is a lid. Unlike fryers with more features, that allow you to lower food into the oil when a lid is already in place, you’ll likely end up with some oil splattering when you put food in.

Because of the potential for splattering and because this is just a metal pot that gets very hot on the outside while in use, this deep fryer may not be the best choice for families with small children. Not that you’d ever want to allow a child to get up close and personal with any potentially dangerous kitchen appliance, but deep fryers in this simple metal pot style are inherently a little more worrisome around small children. The Presto 05411 GranPappy Electric Deep Fryer is probably best suited for college students or people without small children. If you fit into one of those two categories then this budget priced deep fryer could be a good choice for you.
