Magic Chef 20 Qt 40 lb 90,000 BTU Commercial Propane Gas Fryer

20 Qt Commercial Propane Fryer

This 20 Qt stainless steel fryer delivers 90,000 BTU of propane heating power for commercial deep frying. It holds up to 40 lb of oil and operates across a 122°F to 375°F temperature range. Three cast iron burners with built-in deflectors provide even heat distribution. Nickel-plated baskets with vinyl-coated handles complete the unit.

40 lb Oil Capacity Decides Volume

The 40 lb oil capacity determines how much food can be fried in a single batch. Operators needing higher throughput per load will find this limit restrictive. Kitchens producing smaller orders or using multiple fryers may find the capacity adequate. Buyers who want more oil volume per vat should consider larger capacity models.

Requires Propane Supply and Drain Access

The fryer needs a propane gas connection and a 1-1/4 in. drain port for oil changes. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in busy kitchen environments. The front drain simplifies oil removal without moving the heavy unit. Vinyl basket handles protect staff during repeated lifting. Ensure ventilation and gas supply meet local codes before installation.
