i used to work at KFC. when i was frying up some french fries i accidentaly dropped my scoop into the boiling oil. Me, with my zoned out head thought it would be a good idea to just stick my hand in that pan and quickly grab my scoop. it was the most painfull thing i ever experienced, oil burns fucking suck.

I was not, but it happened at the end of a very long evening/night shift, at that point i was very tired and just going on auto pilot.

I worked at a Steak n shake and would make like 50 burger patties at a time sometimes and got fast af at it. One time my spatula fell out of my hand and I palmed the grill with grease all over it while not looking and fked my hand all up.
Your thing sounds way worse dude.

When I worked at KFC I was showing a guy how to pull up the chicken out of the fryers. Man dropped the hook into the fryer. We just looked at each other for a moment and me being a dumbass got the hook out with another hook forgetting how physics work. It swung down and burned the shit out of my arm. I still have a j shaped scar on my arm from that 9 years later

I was closing one day, the fryer just turned off, sweeping and moping. A server walked by to leave through the back door and slipped. She tried to catch herself, but her arm up to her elbow went into the fryer. Bad times. Got cold water and ice on as fast as possible and straight to the hospital.

u/FrankDePlank 2d ago
oh god, i forgot about the grease floor. i remember having to replace my shoes all the time because the soles just evaporated after a month or 2. it also felt really weird when coming off shift and to walk around on a non greasy floor and not slip and slide everywhere. that server just got really unlucky that pan was in the way.

It never stops burning... You skin is long since fucked, and the oil is still chilling at above boiling temp. How's your hand today?

it healed up pretty good actually, it took quite a while tho. this all happened 12 years ago.

u/downtune79 Ahh, the segs! 2d ago
The oil bubbled up and popped and splattered them

u/Duubzz 2d ago
Looked like a little air pocket popped out but the main issue was the guy jumped and splooshed his ladle of boiling oil all over himself.

u/Ed_Radley 2d ago
I legitimately thought something fell from the ceiling and into the pot and scared him which caused him to pull back the ladle and splash himself.

Now that you say something, it does look like something falls into it before the splash......good eye

I thought so, too, but if you slow it down, you can see nothing falls, and the eruption from the pan.

u/Jeramy_Jones 2d ago
They pushed a glass bowl down into the food and were ladling the fat/juices out of the bowl, but the glass shattered from the heat, spattering hot oil.
Not such a great hack I guess.

u/socaldude879 2d ago
That's a metal sieve to strain the oil with the ladle and not a glass bowl. Looks like something fell into the pan
2
u/ScoutCommander 2d ago
I think you're right that it's a metal sieve, but I don't think anything fell in. It looks like something bubbled and popped which startled him causing him to jerk his hand and the hot grease splashed him.

As a chef that has had hot oil in their eye a couple times, molten sugar is the worst.

When I worked in a restaurant, one of the things we would occasionally do was toss a small ice cube into the fryer when someone you didn’t like was standing near it.

20 minutes under a cold tap.

u/jibishot 2d ago
Warm* tap. Cold water can't wixk away heat as fast as warm water -but it does hurt a LOT. The healing is much better on warm v cold water in my experience as well.

u/BamberGasgroin 2d ago
iirc cold water is more immediately effective at removing heat from the burned area and stops your meat from keeping cooking.
0
u/roffinator 2d ago
Yes, for immediate treatment it helps great, cooling down quickly. But don't keep it cold for long, as it hinders the bodies reaction and can make the burn worse…or so I read a while ago. But even if it doesn't worsen, no need to cool down everything, a few seconds should be enough

u/jibishot 2d ago
Warm water can move heat away more efficiently
Sink water shouldn't be hot enough to burn you - so there's less temperature diff between the burn (300f) and the water (110+f) vs cold water (65f) which means heat moves more efficiently between closer Temps than a larger difference. Cold water feels a hell of a lot better, but does not stop the burn as efficiently as warm water.
Chef for 10 years, burned by oil quite a few times. It seems counterintuitive but the explanation, I believe, makes it make sense.

u/Vuelhering 2d ago
heat moves more efficiently between closer Temps than a larger difference
That is almost, but not quite, exactly unlike physics. Heat transfer speed is proportional to the difference.
If the intent is to cool it to below "cooking temp" asap, colder is better. However, ice isn't better for two reasons... first it doesn't contact as well as water, and second it can harm the skin.
Lukewarm water is what you use for frostbite, instead of hot water, because you want to warm slowly to body temp. Warming fast causes damage from rapid phase change from frozen.
But it's been a long time since I've studied thermogoddammics.

u/BamberGasgroin 2d ago
Since you're a chef, maybe you can explain why we don't use warm water for blanching?
-2
u/jibishot 2d ago
Weird that bodies don't work the same as vegetables?
I don't know what your trying to pin on, but you're still wrong.
A better comparison maybe why you start vegetables in cold water then bring to boil vs the act of blanching as comparison.

u/jibishot 2d ago
Check below for my reply.
It's more physics and movement of heat taking the path of least resistance - cold water radiates more of the burn into your body vs warm water because the heat can move more efficiently through something closer to the burns temperature/body temp than cooler than body temp.
The name of the game in a burn is to wick away as much heat as quickly as possible. So it hurts much more than cold water, but warm water is more efficient at cooling off the burn.

You repeating your own assertions is not a citation.

u/jibishot 2d ago
Claiming it's from my own experience is the citation
Nowhere did I claim I have scientific backing or proof, nor do I want to spend hours building a case for someone to understand minutia of cold vs hot water on burns.
EOD - run water on it for as long as you can handle. It helps.

u/praeteria 2d ago
Rule of 15. 15mins, 15° water and make sure the stream doesn't drop straight onto the burn but hits the skin about 15cm above the burn and the water pours down your skin over the burn

100% something goes into the pan which startles the ladle holder. What it is though, is hard to see. It looks like a pink towel?

I am usually cooking at home without shirt since stuff gets hot. And in cooking I mean blisteringly hot pan, some sunflower oil and a thin slice of well seasoned chicken. I still have dark spots on my stomach from the oil burns, but I do not regret. I learned and trained my reflexes. Just gotta br faster than the pops.
