What should be completed every time you change your fryer oil?

The appropriate action to take every time fryer oil is changed is a boil out. This process involves thoroughly cleaning the fryer to remove any build-up of carbon, grease, and food particles that may have accumulated during frying. A boil out typically requires using a specific cleaning solution and hot water to ensure that the fryer is sanitized and ready for fresh oil. This step is crucial for maintaining the quality of the food prepared, ensuring flavor integrity, and extending the lifespan of the fryer itself.

Other maintenance actions, such as oil filter cleaning or performing a temperature check, are important for fryer upkeep but are not specifically required with every oil change. Draining and rinsing can be part of the boil-out process but does not encompass the full cleaning necessary to maintain fryers effectively. Therefore, a boil out is the most comprehensive and essential practice following an oil change.
