Product Description
With perforated basket, notched lid, and 5" stainless steel thermometer. Amazon.com Review
As a versatile indoor or outdoor cooking pot, this one can't be beat. Although it's intended primarily for deep frying fish, fritters, or doughnuts, and includes a thermometer to test the temperature of the oil, the 10-quart stainless-steel pot (with a removable perforated stainless-steel basket) also can be used to steam vegetables, simmer soups and stews, and boil corn on the cob, shrimp, and even homemade bagels. The handle comes with three screws and nuts for easy attachment to the basket, and a notch in the lid allows the handle to protrude during cooking. Two loop handles are affixed to the pot, while a D-ring handle on the lid provides easy grasping with a utensil or mitt. Broad rather than tall, the pot measures 13 by 5 inches; the basket is slightly smaller. The thermometer, made of stainless steel with a five-inch shaft, pot clip, and 1-3/4-inch dial, allows the cook to keep an eye on the temperature of the oil. A red zone is clearly marked for danger should the oil exceed 450 degrees F, at which point the heat source should be turned off immediately. Both Celsius and Fahrenheit are shown. This pot cooks indoors on a stove or outdoors with a Bayou Classic single-burner stove. For best results, wash by hand. --Ann Bieri

Summary: Sturdy Pot, Nice to have 2008-01-05
Comment: I use this pot with my BC SQ14 outdoor burner. I picked it over the aluminum pot because SS is better quality and a better conductor. SS is easier to clean and for this combo, I can just wipe with a soapy sponge to get it squeaky clean. SS is much more expensive though.
It takes awhile to get the peanut oil up to the recommended temperature of 350F to fry. The temperature drops by about 15-20F once food is put into the oil. I've been doing my frying as of late right after getting it for Thanksgiving, so the average outdoor temperature when I've fried has generally has been around 40-50F.
The one thing that bothered me the first time I used it was that seemed as though oil was leaking through the rivets that secure the handles onto the pot. The handles come permanently installed, so it's not like the handle for the basket that needs to be screwed on. This can be dangerous if oil leaks out to the burner and catches fire. The leaking seems to have stopped, or maybe lately, my oil level is below where the rivets are.
The package comes with a thermometer. It's useful in monitoring the temperature, but is not visible if you have the lid on the pot while heating the oil up to the desired frying temperature. The pot can hold a decent amount of food, but you initially don't want to put too much in to fry because it will drop the temperature a great deal and you will have greasy results. Also, there will be a lot of splatter if your oil level is too high. I can put about 6 whole chicken wings at a time or 30 pieces of shrimp.
Everything for the most part seems sturdy.

Summary: Not very good........ 2007-12-28
Comment: This pot is lightweight stainless steel. The bottom scorched through, (blackened) on it's first use. I used it on my stove's 16,000 BTU burner, but that has not been a problem for my other cookware. The fried chicken it produced was good, but I'm sure this pot can't stand up to heavy use. Buy it only for occasional use. If you plan to fry alot, buy a basket for your dutch oven or buy a commercial aluminum fry bottom/basket.

Summary: Sturdy fry pot, thermometer is not great 2007-07-08
Comment: Got the fry pot with lid and basket for my husband for Father's Day. The pot, lid, and basket are great- heavy construction, though some assembly required for handles, etc. The thermometer that came with the fry pot gave my hubby a good laugh- it's basically a "thermometer for dummies" (i.e. when it hits the red line, turn the fryer off.) Good thing that the thermometer wasn't the reason I bought that fryer!
