With the propane fryers you need to make sure it has enough btu's to keep your grease hot. I bought a cheap fryer 1st time and it would take a long time to heat the oil. Then when you added the fish it would drop in temp and take a long time to recover and the fish was very greasy when done. Now I can get the oil to 370 drop the fish in my dutch oven full of oil and the temps drop to about 350 and are done quickly. They are not near as greasy and more crisp.
For chicken and turkey I like the Big Easy oil less fryer. It will pay for itself in just oil alone.
