Abstract
An improved wire rack for supporting food such as chicken in a Henny Penny pressure fryer and subsequently displaying the fried food in either a single bunn pan or a double bunn pan. The improved rack is capable of being used in all three environments (fryer, single plan and double pan) largely because it has a lower rectangular peripheral edge with a shorter length and width relative to the length and width of the upper rectangular peripheral edge.

A method of frying and displaying food, comprising the steps of:

- and
- a plurality of support members in the form of a plurality of wires extending between and attached to opposed sides of said lower border rod so as to cream a support surface for the food;
