context_page_description: Broaster Company is an American food equipment manufacturing company. Broaster Company is known for manufacturing pressure fryers, licensing Genuine Broaster Chicken and operating a branded food program, Broaster Express. The company is headquartered in Beloit, Wisconsin and was founded in 1954 by inventor and businessman L. A. M. Phelan.
context_section_description: Broasting is a method of cooking chicken and other foods using a pressure fryer using techniques invented by L. A. M. Phelan and marketed by the Broaster Company. 
  The method essentially combines pressure cooking with deep frying to pressure fry chicken that has been marinated and breaded. Other modern fast-food chains also deep fry chicken under pressure, but use different recipes or equipment from one of several alternative suppliers (e.g., Henny Penny).
  Internationally, broasted chicken remains highly popular in Middle Eastern and South Asian countries such as Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, as well as in Latin American countries such as Colombia and Peru. Many restaurants and fast-food chains in these countries also have the word "broast" in their names. 
  In Pakistan, the term "broasted" is often used to describe various kinds of fried chicken and does not necessarily mean it is pressure-fried. In neighboring India, the Broaster Company has opened multiple branches of the Genuine Broaster Chicken restaurant chain, which serves broasted chicken according to the Broaster Company's techniques.
