Artisan Fire Two Tank Propane Deep Fryer
Score: 64/100Rankings

The Chard Double Basket Outdoor Fryer is an 18-quart propane fryer with a high-output 50,000 BTU burner and dual baskets, offering rapid heating and versatile cooking. Its outdoor-only design and inability to fry whole turkeys limit its flexibility. Ideal for campers and tailgaters who need a portable, high-BTU fryer for fish, wings, and similar items.

The Artisan Fire AF002200 is a compact dual-basket propane fryer featuring two built-in thermometers and a temperature regulator, making it suitable for small outdoor gatherings. Its lack of wheels, drain valve, and unclear burner output limit portability and performance. Best for users with limited space who prioritize basic dual-fry capability.
