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 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 P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); From the Manufacturer Sporting a fresh look, this stylish deep fryer is super for sizzling up crunchy chicken, golden French fries, crispy onion rings, and more. It quickly fries six liberal servings with only six cups of oil. The perfect frying temperature is maintained automatically. The fryer is constructed of heavy-cast aluminum and features a nonstick surface, inside and out, for no-hassle cleaning. A snap-on lid allows oil to be stored in the fryer to use again. Slotted scoop included. One-year limited warranty. See more

As a man who has been married for 20 years, I can tell you the pain of not being "allowed" to purchase a deep fryer. "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!

I bought as a gift for someone who had a fry daddy years ago and was really missing it. She almost fainted in shock when I gave it to her. She loves the size, which is large, the cord, the scooper, the versatility, and the looks of it. She said that she can fry several things in just a few minutes. To say she's happy would be an understatement. She loves the safety mechanism regarding the magnetic cord, and it's breakaway mode when hit, therefore not turning the whole fryer over. She loves the lid because it saves the grease for awhile without drawing bugs and gross stuff. The food tastes wonderful, I can attest to this. I believe that it should last her for many years, even with moderate usage. It heats very quickly and cooks evenly. All in all, I believe it is a good value. I know that my friend is very satisfied.

After using an air fryer for a while to make french fries (um limp buggers I might say), I decided to buy the GranPappy based on price and reviews. I love the air fryer for chicken tenders, tater tots, etc. but it does not make crispy homemade fries (even though they say they do). I did not want to spend alot of money on a stainless steel fryer, which I had previously for many years until it died. (The stainless steel fryers are a PAIN to clean, they get "glumped" up from the grease that inevitably gets on the stainless steel and is nearly impossible to clean completely. That oil "residue" leaves an unpleasant odor and stickiness and many of them have so many parts to clean.) I know the Presto Fry Daddy/GranPappy has been around ALOT of years, and after reading the reviews and seeing the GranDaddy at my local WalMart, I decided to get the GranPappy as the GranDaddy is very small (frying for 1-2 people) whereas I need to fry for 4 people. I was hesitant as it does not have a temperature dial and in making homemade fries, I do the twice-fry method (1st fry at lower temp, freeze, final fry at higher temp). So far, the GranPappy has worked perfectly. My family is loving the "carnival-like" fries and I love being able to pop the lid on after it has cooled down to store with the oil (which I reuse for a few times if just used for veggies). I absolutely HATED having to drain/strain the oil from the stainless steel fryers, messy job! The GranPappy allows me to store the oil in it and I just put it in my cupboard and there is no "greasy" smell in storage like I had with the stainless steel fryers (even AFTER they were cleaned!) Since there isn't a temperature dial, in doing the "twice-fry" method, I kinda "wing it". Any fryer oil will cool down when ingredients are added, so instead of letting the GranPappy heat up for the full 15 minutes, which I believe puts the temp at 375 F, I do my 1st fry around the 10 minute mark. I've been doing homemade fries for years, so I know by looking at the fries when they are ready in the 1st fry. (they get VERY SLIGHTLY golden and a few bubbles on the exterior- also they will start to float to the top). Then I freeze them spread out on a cookie sheet lined with parchment (so they don't all clump together), package when frozen and when we want fries, I let the GranPappy heat up for the full 15 minutes, add the fries and they are done in just a couple of minutes. Servings per fry (not french fry-but "fry-ing") depends on who I'm serving, If just my husband and me, then I get about 2 servings per fry - if my sons then maybe 1 serving per fry-HAHA)- My family LOVES them though! Crispy exterior, fluffy interior. I do agree with the other reviewers that the plastic scoop that comes with the GranPappy is useless, I use a wooden-handled spider. Cleaning has been simple, dump the oil, wipe out the inside with paper towel, cover or add new oil and you're good to go! If you're tired of cleaning stainless steel fryers or just want a "no-frills fryer that works" I recommend the GranPappy. It's simple but does a great job! Sometimes simplicity is the best.

The Presto 05411 GranPappy Electric Deep Fryer is like the trusty old friend that always shows up when you need crispy goodness in a hurry—but let’s be honest, I really wish it had adjustable temps. 😅 While this fryer definitely nails the "plug in and fry" simplicity, it’s kind of like driving a car with only one speed. 🚗 Why it’s still a solid fryer: Simple and effective: No bells and whistles here—just fill it with oil, plug it in, and you're ready to fry everything from fries to chicken wings. The oil heats up quickly, and it stays at a consistent temp to get that perfect golden brown. It’s fuss-free and straight to the point. 🍗🔥 Compact and easy to clean: For a small kitchen or someone who doesn’t want to deal with a monster-sized fryer, the GranPappy is perfect. Plus, with its nonstick surface and simple design, cleanup is a breeze. 🙌 Affordable: If you’re looking to get into the frying game without breaking the bank, this fryer’s price tag is hard to beat. It gets the job done without any unnecessary frills. 💸 The downside? There’s no adjustable temperature control. It’s set at a single temp, which works fine for most basic frying, but if you’re the kind of person who likes to fine-tune their fry game (hello, different temp needs for different foods!), you might feel a little limited. 🍤 Bottom line: The Presto GranPappy is great for quick, no-fuss frying, but if you like to be in control of your oil temps, you might be left wishing for that extra feature. Still, for the price and simplicity, it’s a solid choice for the occasional deep fry craving. Just plug it in and let the frying begin! 🍟🔥

I have been looking at deep fryers for a while and narrowed my choice down to this one. I am glad I did! It works exactly as it is advertised to. The measurements are 8.25 inches in diameter, and 8.25 inches from the counter to the top edge of the pot. I couldn't find anything that measured 10 inches except the strainer ladle, which has a 4x4 inch spoon. It is sturdy and not likely to bend or get soft from the heat. The outside of the pot DOES get VERY HOT! So be very careful when using it. Don't have anything plastic or otherwise non-heat resistant, including the lid, near the fryer when it is plugged in. And do NOT touch it with your bare hands/skin! Depending on the material your countertop is made with, you might consider placing the fryer on a 1/4 baking sheet to protect your countertop from heat. The plastic lid snaps on easily AFTER the oil and fryer have completely cooled, and fits well. So, I received my GranPappy yesterday. After reading through the little manual for instructions for use and cleaning, I washed it as directed, made sure it was thoroughly dry, filled it to the oil line with vegetable oil and allowed it to heat up for 15 minutes before making some French fries. Because I am an avid cook for close to 50 years, I know that oil and water do NOT mix! With that in mind, I placed my frozen fries on a paper towel and zapped them in the microwave for a minute or two until the ice crystals melted, then gave them a quick pat with a paper towel to remove any remaining moisture. I didn't want hot oil splattering everywhere; especially not on me! The fries took about 12 minutes to cook to a nice golden brown. The time it takes your fries to cook might vary depending on the thickness of your fries, whether they are fresh, thawed, or frozen, and how many you put in the fryer. You don't want to over-crowd food in the fryer or it won't cook properly. Tonight, I decided to fry up some chicken! I had 4 pretty good sized thighs that I had just bought. The were raw and unfrozen. I read several comments here saying bone-in chicken wasn't completely cooked and when left in the fryer to fully cook, the chicken ended up burnt. Because of that, I am passing along another tip -- I placed my chicken thighs in the microwave on DEFROST for about 10 minutes. Then I breaded them with a double coating for some extra crispy chicken, place them immediately in the fryer for 14 minutes and they came out perfectly cooked, golden brown and crispy as ever! And the crispy stayed ON the chicken. I did put all 4 thighs (1.95 pounds) in the fryer at the same time without difficulty. I am VERY pleased with my GranPappy and look forward to frying shrimp, okra, apple fritters, oysters, potato chips, donuts, and more!

Works way better than i thought it would. 30 years ago i had one of these ... it didn't perform half this good. After years of using a commercial grade Waring pro fryer... I'm not cooking for enough people to justify the use of that big fryer so this Grand pappy is just right for 2. 1st startup i prepped it properly according to instructions... it came up to temperature 375.2 and clicked off ... i waited ... it fell about 4 degrees and came back on stopping at exactly 375.0 .... i used this several times before review and i have noticed 1 detail I'll share . Pour up your oil after each use and strain it back into fryer to be used again. It is super easy only takes a vessel for oil and a strainer. Recommend straining back into fryer so you can stop short of pouring oil contaminants back into fryer. On that note the reason for pouring and straining is this .... after 3rd use my fryer only came up to 342... after waiting for several minutes it never got warmer.. i checked inside.... there was a build up of matter at bottom. I strained it ... cleaning oil and tried again... lo and behold 375 right on the dot. Hope this helps everyone.
