French Fries on the Char-Broil Big Easy

How long does it take to bake French fries on the Char-Broil Big Easy? I found the cook time on the fries to pretty much match the times on the package, so it’s about as no-brainer as you can get.

These fries would not have been possible without Char-Broil’s Big Easy Cooking Rack. It adds a ton of cooking area to the fryer. And best, you can add 9″ pie pans, giving you the ability to cook a whole bunch of things, like fries! Check out my post on the rack for tips and tricks.

Here lately, the rack has been hard to find. Next best thing? The bunk bed basket. An absolute-got-to-have for the Big Easy.

You can also cook potato skins and hash brown patties on the Big Easy.

    1. This post was actually done with frozen fries. They took about 20 minutes but the times will vary depending on your weather (mostly wind) conditions and how many levels you are cooking on. If it’s your first time I suggest just doing a handful in a basket or pie pan and timing them. They can be a bit finicky but once you get the hang of it they’re great!
