Thank you for the bacon!
Fellow reviewers, my sincere thanks for all of your help in answering my question re: Presto FryDaddy, "Can you deep fry bacon with this?"
Surprisingly, the responses did not indicate that anyone had actually tried. Well bacon lovers, I am here to tell you that it cooks the most amazing, crispy bacon - ever!
They should call it the Presto BaconDaddy! How about The Baconator? All I'm trying to convey is, how could you NOT use this for baconating???
I strongly recommend a splatter guard as soon as you've placed the slices into the oil. I used Canola oil and other than that, found the max number of thick sliced pieces should be limited to 3 at a time, 4 MAY lead to the oil overflowing. Yup, experience. However the experimenting was more than useful, and delicious!
Note: being a small fryer without a rack, the bacon comes out like its previous owner's curly-cue tail, but make no mistake, unless you are a food stylist, it'll be the best bacon ever!
So, my bacon mates, here is your holy grail of swine strips!
And to all of the answers as to whether or not the Presto FryDaddy can be used to cook bacon, the simple answer is, how can you own this and not have tried??
