how to preserve deep fryer oil. Where to buy inexpensive deep fryer avocado oil?
Bought turkey deep fryer for in-laws. I know that most folks use peanut or canola oil but read that advocado oil is much better because smoke point is over 500 degrees and it is full of good stuff.
But it is so expensive! So, what are best ways to preserve the oil after each use so that we can reuse the oil a lot but not daily?
Also, where can one buy 4 or 5 gallon containers of high temp cooking oil for less. Thanks, Happy New Year. Bob

Just filter it through a fine mesh colander after it cools off and store it in an air-tight container. Nothing last forever though, so don’t get your hopes up.
Use peanut oil instead. Not very good for you but has a high enough smoke point to cook just about anything, plus it’s down right tasty…and cheap!
You can only reuse it up to 3 or 4 times. I don’t believe you can find avocado oil cheap enough in any case. I could google but you already did probably. In my town we have a store called Pacific Food Importers that sells that kind of stuff in bulk and cheap. but you did not say where you are so that does not help.
120 bucks a gallon is the “cheapest” i found it. There are people that sell it in 5 gallon “buckets” but they do not list prices since it is a commodity. The same oil is used in cosmetics so it has changing commodity pricing. You have to email them.
Peanut oil, anyone? It also seems no-one uses it much for deep frying due to the cost. More for salad dressing and whipped into mash potatoes etc. It does have the highest cooking point of the veg oils but is used in specific smaller batch foods not turkeys unless you are Donald Trump.
