Listen to Jay Cipra, President and CEO of Broaster Company, talk about the history of Broaster Company.
Your Success is What We Cook Up.
You know that feeling when something just works? When quality meets efficiency and suddenly everything clicks? That’s what drove our founder, L.A.M. Phelan, back in 1954.
Phelan was a problem solver at heart. He saw foodservice operators struggling with the same challenge you might face today: how to serve exceptional food quickly without sacrificing quality. So he did what any great inventor does, he combined two proven methods in a completely new way. By merging the principles of pressure cooking with deep frying, he created something revolutionary: the Broaster® Pressure Fryer. The process was so unique, he had to invent a new word for it—”broasting.”
What Makes Us Different
We’re not just an equipment manufacturer. We’re your partner in creating food that keeps customers coming back. Our pressure fryers cook faster, seal in more flavor, and produce consistently delicious results that set you apart from the competition. But here’s what really matters: we’ve spent over 70 years perfecting not just the equipment, but the entire system like proprietary recipes, cooking techniques, and ongoing support, so you can focus on running your business.
Our Products, Your Advantage
From our flagship Broaster Pressure Fryers to our complete Genuine Broaster Chicken program, everything we create is designed with one goal: helping you serve food that people crave. Our equipment handles everything from low to high volume operations, and our trademark programs give you access to recipes and methods that have been proven across thousands of locations.
