In my flu-induced fevered state I read this headline as "Deep frying portable gerbil".

That they can be trained to deep fry is pretty good, but aren't all gerbils portable? I'm carrying like five of them in me right now. ON ME! On me! I'm carrying... ....I have to go.

FTFA: The legs fold away and it includes a carrying case so the whole thing is easy to transport.

As you leave a trail of scalding grease behind you.

Was wondering about that myself.

This first gen stuff never works all that great, but it's an interesting concept. I think the hardest part would be keeping the oil at the proper temp. It looks like it would only be good for around 3-4 people tops as well.

No USB port?


Fail.

It's shiny, and I want it, but my first thought was that I could feed less people with it at once than I can with my Weber Q. This one is probably perfect if you're just feeding you and the kids though. With the Weber I carry a cast iron pan, with this Blacktop one that's unnecessary, and I wonder if you could even boil water in that center space if you didn't put oil in it.

Why the hell would you ever deep-fry a portable grill?
 
2011-11-10 10:09:35 PM
Maybe if you only have like 2-3 people to feed. But it would take hours in that tiny fry bowl to fry a good amount of fires. Plus they even show in the video that you have to have bought a temp gauge to put it in and HOPE that it never falls in. Maybe a built in one, part of the side of the bowl.

I bet some Farkers would make a Goat See out of food around the center ring.

People can't properly deep fry a turkey, and that has crevices and entries for proper frying, and now you want to add potatoes into the mix?.

At least add the videos on youtube.

See Marge, I told you they could deep fry my shirt.

Goatse is no longer banned as long as it has NSFW linked.

I'd happily post about Goatse, but not link to a mirror. Glad the word itself is no longer verboten.

Enough with the "manliness through food" fad. You and your bros inhale garbage before football games, we get it, you're awesome.

Why is biatch filtered? It's regularly used on network TV. Twat and Cock are allowed. I think twat is worse than biatch.

Once upon a few years ago, Drew answered a whole bunch of questions about Fark, and that one came up. He said something about how it amused them in the beginning to filter certain words, just to see how people would react. It then became a permanent part of Fark.

Meh, I have a portable grill with a side burner that can...*gasp*...let you heat up a pot full of oil to deep fry things with.

For smooth, satisfying flavor?

Goatse by itself wasn't censored, but the string with the Christmas Islands top level domain, goatse.cx was, it became "gootse".

Jeeze -- $240 for that piece of crap with a useless 20oz oil capacity?

I don't own any of this stuff but a little googling turns up:Bayou Classic Depot

10 qt fryer - $82
bayouclassicdepot.com

20 inch cast iron skillet - $70 ( which can probably sit on top of the burner)
