The plastic cambro may not be the best choice there, bud.

The lessons learned the hard way are the fastest lessons learned.

Nope. Looks all good to go! Make sure to wear flip flops too in case it splatters. That way you can just put them through the dishwasher to clean.

A old cardboard box underneath the bin helps with any spillage during the drain

Definitely just open the valve and walk away. Smoke break guy! Go smoke a doob and let it cool down for a bit.

Make sure the oil hot when using a plastic bucket 💀
snagsguiness
Put water in the bucket first so it cools down the oil🤪

When I do mine I use two metal stock pots, two buckets of hot clean water, an empty bucket, a bucket of hot soapy water, 3 or 4 cloths, a chinois with large holes and a steel wool. Turn two filter cones inside out and put one inside the other with the seams opposite. Chane the inside one after each fryer.
Wear gloves.

It’s going to be hot and it might melt that container…
Fill it up with ice cubes so it cools the oil as it goes in
MariachiArchery
Fun fact: those yellow mop buckets we all use with *also* melt if you empty a hot fryer into them.
Ask me how know.

yeah you can fuck right off with this. I have a very polarizing opinion about who should change the fryer oil (not the person who just got rocked on the line for 9 hours). mistakes can be avoided

Yo your gonna burn that bucket, put some ice at the bottom to help keep the bucket cool and burn
polythenesammie
Oh. Oh my. Oh no. Please no.
CommissionerGordon12
Yea don’t out 350 degree oil in plastic
CommissionerGordon12
Also get a spout that curves down so it won’t rocket onto your shins or shoes if you fuck up. Then never turn the curve upside down

When you open the nozzle don’t just stare at it, make some use of the free time and start another task like grabbing something in another room. Or start a conversation with a server

When that plastic melts, use water to put it out.

Make sure you empty it as soon as you kill the flame, makes it easier to empty it all out hot /s

This is rage bait

Bunch of rookies in this thread. Skip the bucket and just squeegee it down the drain. Work smarter, people!

Make sure you close the drain before you start refilling it otherwise you will very rapidly dump oil onto the floor! Wanna ask how I know?
NeverFence
Just drain it into a garbage bag.
marimoso
Just make sure it’s at 350 before you dump. Could clump otherwise
swedething
Make sure the oil is really hot, it’s more liquid that way, and it’ll flow more freely!
BoxersOrCaseBriefs
Stop! Don’t do it! It’ll melt right through the bucket!
You need to dump a bucket of ice into the fry oil first to cool it down. Then it’ll be ready to empty into your bucket.
(In case someone stupid reads this… Don’t do this. Ever.)
aPaganGoatLord
Cool it off with water first
sucobe
This is completely unsafe.
Put down some paper towels underneath that bucket, just in case you spill.
Guavadoodoo
Are you serious? Hot oil, lightweight plastic bucket! Aargh, forget it. Just go for it!

Today I witnessed a man that had claimed to be a chef at multiple restaurants, clean his first fryer. Boy that was humbling to watch.

There is no limit to cambro utility. Trust me.
QUESO_DEVILLE
You don’t even need the bucket, just go straight the floor drain it’s totally fine
godomar29
Use a stock por first , second use the same oil and scoop it with a small saucepan into the dryer , the same oil will clean the residue inside , after that close the pipe and add hot water with pot detergent and turn it on on 200 , one it boiled throw that water and keep putting water till it get out clean , at least 45 minutes per fryer
