Santa happened to drop a new Cajun fryer off at my place this xmas, oh yeah! I'm leaning on trying the Riceland oil. Anyone else switched to using this over other oils?
Thanks and Happy Holidays!

I started using it a few months ago. No complaints.
Best stuff there is.........
What is the cost comparison to peanut oil and does it have a comparative flash point ?
Rice oil is higher priced but has a higher smoke point and rice oil is suppose to be healthier for you.
I'm going to try it if I can find it close to home.
I have used it, but at times it hard to find. I use it when I can get it.
Never used the rice oil but have heard good things about it. I use peanut oil and like the taste of my food with it.
You're gonna Really Like that cooker!!!!!! What size is it? Mine is the 4 gallon or small one.
Thanks everyone for the info, Riceland Oil it is. BRM its the 4 gallon model, probably a little too big for my needs but hey will be great for gatherings. Now all I have to do is catch enough fish to make good use of it. That's the hard part...

We have also used soybean oil which has a high burn temp, vegetable oil, corn oil, and creamy shortening which is pretty cheap at Sams. They all worked well. With the cajun fryer people will love the way you cook.
Since you've tried all the different oils, and lard, Which ones TASTES the best?Quote:

I've never used it myself, so it may be the best ever. Just check the date on the box when you buy it. If the oil is fresh, it's all good.Quote:

Good info. Thx Budro.Quote:

I bought mine from Gazaway Lumber in Paragould, AR. Mr. Gazaway brought it to Sardis for me. He has a place down there. He'll give you a good deal. Can't remember what I paid, but it was the best price I could find. Mr. Gazaway bought a boat from me and did me right like I did him.Quote:

He's an avid crappie fisherman. He has retired now and his son runs the business. I guess Mr. Gazaway just draws a check these days. [emoji4]Quote:

Ive switched to it. I liked peanut oil, but I like to do large cooks for family and friends. I would hate to know that I killed one of them off because of a peanut allergy. I get my rice oil directly from Riceland in Weiner. If I remember right they have them labeled 2 different ways. The plain rice bran oil label is the exact same thing as the fish fry oil and alot cheaper. They also sell it in 4 or 5 gallon big jug that they do not show on their website. Call ahead to make sure that it is in stock.
Just grab me 5 gallons next time you go over there. [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]Quote:
