What equipment do you need to have an outside fish fry?

To host an outdoor fish fry, you'll need a deep fryer or a large pot for frying, ideally a propane burner for high heat. Essential tools include a thermometer to monitor oil temperature, a slotted spoon or fish basket for safe retrieval of the fish, and a sturdy table for preparation and serving. Additionally, you'll want to have a cooler for your fish, cooking oil, seasonings, and safety gear like gloves and a fire extinguisher nearby.
