deep fryer weekend

[nascarchuck]

I love fried corn on the cob! Good stuff!

I am too late in posting this, but if you like jalapenos, this might be worth a try next time you fire up the fryer.

I got this from another forum, but have yet to try it. Sounds good though.

Crabmeat Stuffed Jalapenos


1 lb flaked crab meat (2 cans) 1/4 tsp salt
1 lb jalapeno peppers 1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp ea, finely chopped 1/8 cayenne pepper(optional)
green bell pepper, onion, and dill pickle 1 clove minced garlic
1/4 cup cracker meal (bread crumbs) 1/4 cup milk
1 beaten egg (breading mixture)

Cut jalapenos in half lengthwise. Disacard pulp and seeds and rinse carefully. In a large mixing bowl, combine remaining ingredients except breading mixture. Stuff pepper halves with crab mixture and press stuffing around pepper. Set peppers aside. To prepare Breading mixture, place 2 cups craker meal (bread crumbs) in a flat pan. In a separte pan, mix 1 cup milk, 2 eggs and 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper. Dip peppers in mixture, then in cracker meal (bread crumbs). Repeat procedure. Deep fry at 365 degrees until golden brown. Drain on paper towel. Makes 30 horsd'oeuvres. Serve with a queso or ranch dressing.

Ya know, this past weekend, we stopped at a Diary Queen for lunch. They had fried jalapeños on the menu. They were just battered and fried slivers served with a chipotle ranch dipping sauce... they were good! Will be giving those a try at home real soonish...
