Gas fryers are a reliable choice for cooking fried foods in the food service industry. They are popular due to their ability to cook French fries, chicken strips, onion rings, fish, and other fried favorites to perfection.
Floor model gas fryers are especially suitable for high-volume operations as they have larger capacities. There are three configurations to choose from, with the open pot style being the most popular. This style is ideal for cooking low-sediment foods like French fries. If you frequently cook heavily battered and high-sediment foods, tube-type gas floor fryers are the perfect choice. For delicate menu items like battered fish and shrimp, as well as dough-based foods like funnel cakes and doughnuts, shallow square flat bottom gas fryers are recommended.
To cater to both small and large operations, floor model gas fryers come in different sizes based on the volume of cooking oil they can hold. Some units even have up to four fry pots, making them suitable for establishments that fry food on a daily basis or have a variety of fried items on their menu.
Gas deep fryers are built with heavy-duty stainless steel to withstand the demands of commercial cooking. The cabinet base of these units often includes a filtration system, making it easier to maintain the quality of the cooking oil. While most floor model gas fryers come in a natural gas configuration, there are also options available for liquid propane.
Manufacturers such as BKI, Frymaster, Garland/US Range, Pitco, Vulcan, and Wells have made significant contributions to the advancement of fry cooking. Their innovations have led to the introduction of electronic and solid-state controls, allowing for more precise operation and tailored results. Some gas fryers even feature automatic lifts that raise the fry baskets when the food is ready, reducing the need for manual intervention. Additionally, certain units have self-cleaning systems and energy-efficient features to enhance performance.
