    Get the cast iron dutch oven to go with it and pitch the aluminum pan and you will be good to go.

    I bought the turkey fryer, but also use the burner with my cast iron dutch oven for fish. Works great.

    That is what I use with the aluminum pot and it works great and I cook a lot of fish for fish fry's. Never had a problem with it. I did replace the regulator valve this year. I have had it for 8-9 years, and it still does a nice job. I have several fish fry's a year for up to 100 people at some. EB

    Like most said ,toss the pot and get a cast iron one. You will not burn grease or oil near as easy and it will hold heat better. I won't cook for fish fry's around here without my cast iron. Cooked tons of fish too! Too bad your so far away , I commercial fish also. Love those Flathead Catfish fillets and Buffalo ribs. Thet're hard to beat unless it's Crappie fillets.

    Cast holds heat better but if you got it for your B day use that. You will love cooking fish in it!

    what is the correct oil temp on these things and how hard are they too light? do you use a long handled BIC lighter or what? mine dont have a push button or anything like a gas grill...i guess just barely open up the gas and light?
