Hospitality Connect lists 55 Henny Penny products, covering open fryers, pressure fryers, holding cabinets and a combined prover and holding cabinet. Open fryers make up the bulk of the range, with single and multi-well configurations and models that include integrated oil filtering.
The first decision is open versus pressure. Open fryers handle chips, seafood and crumbed items in fast, repeatable batches. Pressure fryers seal the lid, which suits bone-in chicken and other dense proteins. Well count is the second decision, and it should follow your peak-hour throughput rather than your menu length. Built-in filtering is worth paying for where the fryers run all day, because it extends oil life and removes a manual task from the close-down routine. Holding cabinets keep cooked product at serving temperature so the fryers are not the bottleneck at the pass.
