Fried chicken I do in a cast iron skillet - fish in a Fry Daddy.

I prefer the regular cast iron but the enameled will work as well.

I wouldn't spend a bunch of money on something just to fry chicken or fish in. When I fry chicken, I use a #14 Lodge pan...they're cheap and you can fit a lot of chicken in them.
I'm not a fan of the enameled stuff...I just don't see a reason when cast iron is easy to work with, won't chip, and can be re-seasoned if you mess it up. Enameled, once it's chipped, it's chipped for life. |

I use Dutch Ovens - either cast iron or aluminum, both work well for me but I prefer cast iron.

Walmart has a big 30$ fry pot w/temp control by degrees. Makes things easy, worth the money, IMO. It can be used for cooking other stuff, too, or keeping something like soup at a certain temp for a while.

I use a stainless steel wok, unless I'm doing small stuff, then I use cast iron.
Enameled pots and pans can chip off and end up in your food.

I use my cast iron pots and such for frying. Helps keep them seasoned. Get a good fry thermometer that clips onto the side of the pot.

'Best' depends on your proximity to a current bush. Hard to plug in an electric fryer out in the sticks. In civilization, I prefer the temperature control an electric fryer gives you....but in the sticks a deep dutch oven works pretty good, it's just hard to control the temperature on a campfire. |

ETA- I usually do fish and hush puppies in my electric cooker; it's got a wide temp range and can go from slow cooker to deep fry. Its an el cheapo that was a gift but it works great for fried fish. Chicken goes in a tex sport cast iron chicken fryer. Picture a big frying pan with tall sides complete with frying pan type handle and a deep lid. I wouldn't have bought it myself but the high sides are nice to keep the splatter off the stove a bit. |
