Not so much fat back then - our $2.00 meal was likely to be the only thing we ate all day.

Was this around the time of the big anorexia boom?
No - $3.35 minimum wage, 350.00 two bedroom apartments, great music and mosh at the Pearl Street Grill for $5.00 on Fridays & Saturdays. My crowd paid our own way - no help from mom and dad.
You paid for all of this and you still manage a golden banana?
That was 20 plus years ago, good times.
I've never heard it, but it's the only clever way I could say "deep fry rabbits".
Just make sure you drop them in head first, that screaming would be unbearable otherwise.
mmmmm....fried rabbit. actually we were gonna pan fry one this weenend & then finish it in the oven but the farmer ran out. 
so i got me a free Fry Daddy 4cup deep fryer and have been using it just for fries and such so far.
i want to deep fry some snickers tonight and was curious as to how you all make your batter to put the snickers in.
i heard funnel cake batter or pancake batter works.
any ideas?

a diner near me deep fries hot dogs
tried a snickers tonight.....it sucked
advice from my wife (the one who won't let me get a deep fryer): apparently you have to chill the snickers bar first. leave in refrigerator overnight. then dip in batter, and deep fry.
How long does the oil stay good in these fryers?
Anyone use peanut oil?
I would love to get one but I am fat and would like to look like I did a few years ago which is hard to do with my work schedule.
I has a deep fried snickers at our county fair once, it SUCKED! The warm peanuts are like chewing on little rubber balls
I think a milkyway would work better.

Deep fry bacon then everything else you fry will taste like bacon.
oil life depends on what you fry. If you're doing chicken wings and heavily breaded things, MAYBE twice. If it's fresh po tate toes or wontons or something, then you can get 2-3. If you don't mind stuff tasting like everything else, then longer.How long does the oil stay good in these fryers?

I usually use canola or corn; I hear peanut is the way to go, but it's much more expensive. My parents used crisco. Now that I think about it, it's terrifying.
i left in the freezer over night as per the instructions i found online....one still melted and turned my peanut oil into chocolate peanut oil
we've only used peanut oil...its a bit more expensive, but my fryer used 4cups, so a small bottle of oil is pretty cheap. id still be using my 3 week old oil, but the snickers f'ed it upHow long does the oil stay good in these fryers?

Hey man, I recently started using a cheap-o that Aldi's grocery store had on special and I love it. It has a lid and adjustable temp control. The lid make a huge huge difference from the old fry baby bucket I had been using for years. It's made cheaply and I'm sure it will break in a few years but for right now it's great.
Similar to this one but more basic.

the Fry Daddy we got worked great until amy plugged it in with the plastic top on which melted into the oil and onto the metal. i tossed it and got this one:
it works great, has a temp knob, a basket to remove the food and can be used for other things besides frying (though we've only used it for frying)

it is and is only cost $30 online. we got it for around that much with a Bed Bath and Beyond coupon. it doesnt drop in temp too much even when really loaded up with fries or tatter tots

This model works very well. I want one for cooking Fish and Onion Rings. My firends wife is an awesome cook and uses the hell out of hers....
Yeah, we reuse the oil for several weeks unless what we cook leaves a bunch crap in there.
Yeah, I've had no complaints on the new one. It is a bit bulky but it's not a huge deal.
So Amy didn't break it yet?
