Fried Banana Peppers




My Mom used make these for me on occasion when the banana peppers were plentiful. I simply love these with fresh peppers and the pickled ones aren’t bad either.

30 Fresh Banana Peppers or 1 quart Pickled
Redneck Chef Seasoning to taste
3 cups flour
2 egg yolks
3/4 to 1 cup beer
Salt and pepper
Oil for frying

Preheat the fryer.  Season the Peppers with Redneck Chef Seasoning.  Season 1 cup of flour with Salt and Pepper.  In a mixing bowl, whisk the yolks and 3/4 cup of the beer. Whisk in enough flour to form a batter.  If the batter is too thick add the remaining beer to thin the batter.  Dredge the spears in the seasoned flour.  Dip the spears in the batter, letting the excess drip off, coating the peppers completely. Gently lay the peppers in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes.  Remove the spears from the oil and drain on paper towels. 
*Note: You can serve with Ranch Dressing for dipping if desired.
