Favorite Fish Fry Dredge

[Rebelss]

Louisiana is pretty darn good too. Combine that with some homemade tarter sauce and you have a meal fit for a king!

I use tartar sauce too, just don't tell anyone....

Reb's Tartar sauce

Adjust quantities to suit....these are just off top of my head

1 cup Miracle whip
1 tsp horseradish
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp onion powder
big Tbsp of dill relish
sprinkle of dill weed
shake of salt

Catch and cook!

I use to use fish crisp but I can do 2-3 times more fish with the same amount of fish batter using catch and cook.

Finding what’s in your local grocery stores may determine what kind ya get. This has been a reliable brand for me.

Lotsa fun things to do, some guys even crunch up Funyums and use those....

SShhhhh! Supply lines are tough right now... If I can't get my Funyuns this weekend I'm blaming you... It's 2022, spot burn isn't just for ponds anymore. LMAO!

I'll use a code word in the future.  Meanwhile, beware of those overweight wimmen hogging up all the good snackie-things*, ding-dongs, etc., gossiping in the middle of the aisles....my phrase:  "Aisle Bovines".

Louisiana Fish Fry, though that has been deemed a bit too spicy by some of the "aunts" at church.

Great stuff!

Silly?? How many others have you made and tried?

I dabbled... Shor lunch, Louisiana a few other strange ones..... Nothing like drakes to me.... But to each his own

[Rebelss]

Yup, whatcha like is whatcha like!

Andy's "Red" flavor has become my go-to.

Uncle Bucks light and krispy from Bass pro is good for a dry batter. I add some bread crumbs and some spices but not hot spices that bury the fish flavor

[meandcuznalfy]

I've used the McCormick dry fish fry mix and liked it, still love the batter though.

I will say using a beer with drakes makes it much better... Tonights was a vanilla snowdrift porter from lienenkugels.... I dont drink but the wife does a little so i buy good beers t to double for batter mixes

Rebs, I agree 100%. The problem I have with batter is that in my Little duel daddy it’s hard to keep the fish from sticking together and it does make a pretty good mess out of your grease. That’s why I get lazy. A lot of people substitute 7-Up or Sprite for the beer also, I’m not nuts about the beer flavor either. But I worked in a lot of restaurants that do it just the way you’re saying.

Yup, I used to have a little one, had that prob too. Ate the onion rings faster than I could make 'em. Finally went with a full-size one. Actually heading up to my buddy's restaurant with my fishing buddy in an hour for some beer battered fish and onion rings for lunch! Nice to have a buddy with a great restaurant !

I have a brother in law with a bad restaurant, but that comes in handy too. 😀 The old Fry Crisp was a simple good one too. I had a good friend that used to own a Kentucky fried chicken too, it was surprising how well that coating worked.

[firegems]

Pure and simple for me…The old Flour, Egg wash and Panko with a touch of Jane’s krazy mixed up pepper added in.
