I use either soybean or cottonseed oil. High burn temps like peanut. Way less allergy problems. Strain and re-use. Works great for fryin turkeys too. About half the cost of peanut oil.

Have noticed a lot strain the oil after using and before storing. I always did the same but now use a small fine mesh strainer (bend the ears back so it will scrape the bottom of the pot better) and dip out the crumbs between batches while frying to keep them from burning. Also do the same after the last batch. It seems to keep the oil in better shape for a second use. Then I pour the oil into jars after cooling without straining it. What little residue remains settles to the bottom and will stay in the jar when pouring out. Saves some time and mess.

Rice oil is the best, but hard to find and expensive. Canola next.

what do you use for a thermometer, I get the cheap ones - but they never last very long before the readings go south.

I have a counter top 2 basket fryer. It holds a hair over a gallon of oil. We use it weekly sometimes more than once a week for fish, fries, tater tots, onion rings, home made mozzarella sticks etc. I change the oil about 2 times a year, maybe 3. Have yet to have anything out of it that didn't taste great.
I use canola oil most of the time. Generally I buy the cheapest of the generally accepted good high temp frying oils, which include general vegetable oil, corn oil, peanut oil, or canola oil. Canola more often than not is the cheapest I find.
Most of the time I'm cooking for 4 or less. If its a bigger group I use a different cooker.

Best be careful who you feed fried food to cooked in peanut oil.
