Bella Betsy,

Dedicate a pot to deep frying.  Always use the same pot and it won't matter
overly much if that pot has oil splatters.  You still want to clean it as
best you can, but it's likely not going to come all out, and it's not going
to be easy.

Make sure your oil cools down enough to handle.  Empty oil from pot.  Take
a METAL scrubber, not steel wool, it's too thin, you want one of the
"industrial metal scrubby", whatever the name is.  Then you want elbow
oil.  Lots of it.

Better yet, get a deep fryer.  Safer, and without as much worry about black
cooked on oil, since it's black itself! :-)  I think a good brand is "grand
daddy", or something like that.
