Dyers

Dyers is a restaurant located on Beale Street in Memphis, Tn. It is world famous for its hamburgers and its ageless cooking oil. Dyers opened in 1912 by Elmer "Doc" Dyer. He told everybody he had the best hamburgers in town and that he used ageless cooking oil. He was right. People loved the hamburgers and the oil was ageless. He filled his oil once in 1912 and the oil has not been changed once. They strain out the oil every day but have never added one drop of oil on top of the old oil. The server there and the cook would not tell me how they do it. They may not know.
