I just got a 10" cast iron chicken fryer. On the bottom handle end it says 10 1/4 inch chicken fryer, below that Made in the USA. On top the handle is a 8, in the bottom of the handle it looks like a common screw head cast in it. Anyone know the make?

There is nothing across the middle. I am thinking a Wagner too. Did anyone else make one that said Made in USA?

It does appear to be a unmarked Wagner and I've seen the screw head on BSR's too. Around 1960 the USA manufacturers started putting made in the USA on there CI products. I believe it was because that's when foreign CI products from like Taiwan started showing up.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Your welcome MJM. BSR is the Birmingham Stove and Range Co. They made a lot of stuff and their Red Mountain and Century series CI are pretty good.

A picture of the bottom of the handle would help with identification. Most companies had a distinct shape.

This is the second of these I have got. They look the same other than the screw head in the handle. The first one I got is also a little smoother, on the outside.
