Can this be used as a 'flour' coating for frying (pork chops, chicken, etc)?

I'm sure it can. I haven't tried that, but I'm sure I will. Excited that Carbquik is a good alternative to Bisquick. We don't feel so deprived.

You can, but I mix it with bread crumbs or something else when I fry something. You need to fry at a lower heat than normal or it will burn.

I would think so. You will know when you try it. What have you got to risk?

Yes it can. There are several recipes out there for using Carbquick for frying. Just google "Carbquick for frying".

Yes, I have used it only for frying, and no, the finish stays put. If you use it with care and don't use metal utensils it should last just fine. It's those nicks that cause the finish to start flaking off. My last one was over 25 years old when I threw it away. Didn't think I needed another one, but got this Oster and it is terrific. I have deep-fried chicken, and fried pork chops so far, no complaints.

No, in the instruction manual it says not to but it can be used for deep frying pieces of chicken or fish or the like.

I agree with Bonnie in that it doesn't need any coating. I use Krusteaz waffle mix which uses a little vegetable oil in the batter.

sure, have used it to boil pasta and veggies. I would not fry with it though, although I am sure you could.

I don't think so. It's meant to be inserted into chicken or meat to check the internal temperature. There are special thermometers for frying temperature.

Yes, you can! I use it in some dishes, mainly sweet baked goods. However, I CAN taste it. Especially if I fry on it. The least pleasant experience I had--is frying fish on it---taste was terrible. So now I just avoid frying on it.

I only use it for frying. I have never thought about using it any other way, but I suppose it is possible. You probably should contact the company which manufacturers this product.

Hello Srilatha P. , The answer to your question would be a definite NO, it cannot be used for deep frying .

Don't see why not. I found it to be the best gluten free flour I tried.. I used it in a few baked cookie recipes and had no problems. Think it would be worth a try.. I really was impressed with the product. They have a website where you can get contact information and email them with your question just to be sure.

I would imagine that you could. I use it for my meringue cookies. A little goes a long way.

Yes. I even use it to cook chicken thighs, chicken breast, pork chops, and fries.

I would think you could use it for that. The pan is sturdy and not lightweight and deep enough to fry without having the oil too close to the surface. Obviously not for a large batch. I will say I haven't tried it. Otherwise those who have used it for this purpose can probably answer more accurately.

No, we used it a few times for frying bacon, but it's not as deep as I wanted. If you cook a lot of bcon at one time, you may have to remove some of the grease or it will run over!

do not see why not......I have fried many different items with good results...

This is to shallow for deep fry--I suggest Presto Deep Fryer for fish and bone in chicken. This is great for boneless chicken and pork chops etc.

I would say no, designed for water, broths etc. would be very careful using oil in it, rubber O-rings. Look for a deep fryer..
