    Turkey fryer question

    I own one of these turkey deep-fryers and I love it to death. I've made several turkeys, some seafood boils, and what have you with it. One thing I never stopped to think about is reusing the peanut oil after I've deep fried a turkey. Normally, once the fryer cools down I simply dump the peanut oil back into its container and throw it away.

    Does anyone else have one of these and can do you know whether or not the peanut oil can be used again?

    Indecision may or may not be my problem.

    Re: Turkey fryer question

    hmmm..... good question. My family usually does a deep fried turkey in the desert for thanksgiving every year but that's the only time we use it so the oil gets discarded every time.


    google turned up this article that is pretty informative:

    http://www.ehow.com/about_5292615_can-r ... r-oil.html


    basically says so long as you didn't burn the oil (over 450 degrees for peanut oil), you filter it, and store it properly, you should be able to keep it for up to 6 months

    you can but it is messy, you're better off dumping it.
