A hopper used in conjunction with a deep fryer basket to remove small pieces of the food item, breading or ice crystals from the basket before it is placed in a deep fryer for cooking. Removing the small particles of food prevents them from falling into the shortening and accumulating in the deep fryer. The shortening in the deep fryer will last longer and not discolor when the food items being cooked are totally removed from the shortening after cooking and do not leave behind small pieces of food, breading or water. The hopper when used over a bucket will collect all the small food items, which would otherwise fall into the shortening. The bucket when full can be emptied or replaces with another bucket. The hopper has a lid to engage the bucket and prevent spills or food escaping from the bucket.
