Why can't I put lard in my deep fat fryer?

Lard has a low smoking temperature and would burn and cause the food to taste burnt as well---------------The real reason you can't put lard in most fryers is that many have an immersion element that supplies the heat. If a solid is heated, total immersion is not achieved and creates a real risk of fire as that element will sputter and overheat as it fails to effectively transfer its energy through the oil. The dripping lard on the OVER heated element may lead to combustion -a fire (I asked a manufacturer).Because the heating element can melt just the lard around it to flame, while the rest remains solid, use a frier where the heating element has no contact with the lard. I use a Presto CoolDaddy with a removable pot.
