The penultimate in Southern cuisine

[SouthernN'Proud]

Being Southern, I have long known that there is no authentic American cuisine that can hold a light to ours. New Orleans/cajun comes close, but (newsflash) they're Southern too.

If it is possible for it to be cooked, we will find a way to deep fry it. I've had deep fried pickle chips, deep fried corn on the cob, fried green t'maters (fixin a batch of them tonight in fact), and have heard of or seen deep fried Coca Cola and deep fried watermelon. But just now, I experienced the pinnacle of all things Southern as relates to a deep fryer.

Deep fried Oreos. Yummmm!

MMMMM...fried eggplant.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Nothing better than a fried green tomatoes and fried eggplant.

However, fried squash (yellow and zuchini) and fried mushrooms come close.

Nothing Southern about frying, sunshine.

 

[SouthernN'Proud]

I never said we invented frying, sparky. We just perfected it.

And you can take wikipedia and stick it where the sun DON'T shine. It's less reliable than Oprah.

How does it compare in reliability to a Chevy?

 

[SouthernN'Proud]

You can always depend on a Chebbie to leave you stranded at least...

There is some place round here (Brooklyn) that does fried candy bars and fried twinkies. Apparently, you can bring in other edible goodies and they will fry it right up for ya.

Trading one medical condition for another?

Sorry folks, if you want fried & southern, there's nothing that can beat chicken.

Rookie.

Catfish, frog legs, walleye, just to name a few. Fried chicken is OK but tiresome. Gotta come up with some variety for that fryer ya know.

Not knocking the rest but, c'mon, fried chicken is a staple.

My damn ol China made DeLonghi deep frier, I got a Sam's club a couple
of years ago, ain't been worth spit. It never has gotten hot enough
to fry right.

Did chicken Once that came out edible, but I grill, or stovetop now mostly.
