Pics from about year ago when our little family run burger joint took over this spot inside a museum. Previous operators of the kitchen here did NOT believe in cleaning anything by the looks of it.
Took me maybe 12 hours over 3 days total of boiling out, scraping, scrubbing, and letting degreaser soak overnight. Don’t know how people can run a restaurant and just be able to live with themselves when they consider that job well done.
Honestly still not perfect but hell of a lot better! Wish I took some more before pictures but enjoy the transformation!

This is impressive!
any advice on cleaning the insides of the fryers ?
It looks like you got new ones installed, holy shit.
Way to go, chef! What an incredible job.
Holy shit you deserve a raise.
Oooh which museum? I hope it’s the Andy warhol museum their set up looks like this.
Okay, a few questions. How many times do you flush it out before it’s ready to cook again? Is it safe to put plastic wrap on it to make sure the degreaser is marinating, or do you have to wait for it to be absolutely cool before you do that? How do you reach the depth of the deep fryer? Just elbow grease or use a tool? It literally looks perfect btw.
Very nice. Sexy Time.
Superb work friend. Looks like new fryers in the after shots
Hood cleaner that works on stainless steel works extremely well for this. Especially if you were using a 12 hr. Degreaser soak – give it a shot next time. Though now that it’s clean, keeping it clean is easier than a miracle marathon.
Feel like sharing the museum?
My nipples just got hard
I love fryers with the covered heating elements, makes cleaning so much easier. Funny story, I worked at a place with one of these and forgot to shut it down before draining. Went into the back for something and it was on fire when I came back. Burned it out, and was back to a fryer without the covered elements after that :/
Saying “it’s still not perfect” is crazy. Reminds me of a scene in Better Call Saul where Gus kept making the kid scrub the hell out of the fryer and it was never “good enough”
A thing of beauty
Awesome shit! Now open the door… because we all know down there is where the true fuckery lies.
Nicely done!
Excellent job. I’ve cleaned a lot of fryers in my life, and I think you’ve done the best job I’ve ever seen.
They look beautiful but I hope you saved some of the oil otherwise anything that comes out of there is gonna taste like metal and canola for the next few days.
Where’s the after pics, those could use a wipe down!
Wow. Holy hell OP that shit looks brand spanking new
The before pics are why I don’t eat out much.
