That'll definitely give you a heart attack...:eek:
 
I think my health insurance would be canceled if I ever admitted to eating that stuff.
 
Does chicken fried bacon mean it's bacon with chicken around it and fried?

After I try that, then I've had country fried chicken, country fried steak, chicken fried steak, none of those had chicken in them, as far as I know.

Country fried chicken without chicken in it?

In theory, chicken fried steak simply means fry in chicken fat, AFAIK.


Chicken Fried Bacon!
Please pass the cholesterol.

Well, add the batter fried zucchini and -

don't forget the Hot Sauce!
 
How about some fried cheese and some chicken fried salad? You could toss the salad with some high fat/high calorie creamy dressing, wad up the salad, dip it in batter and fry it! Oooh, I could throw in some of those deep fried jalapenos!

Sounds great! :-p

In some places in Scotland you can get a battered deep fried pizza. If I remember correctly it weighs in at around 2000 calories which is the recommended daily intake of a healthy woman. But more often than not they are served with a side of chips most commonly eaten by slicing the pizza in half and creating a chip sandwich from the two halfs.

In Scotland, they will deep fry anything in batter, from Mars bars to pizza!

My mother is convinced that a Southerner invented salad dressing, after giving up on attempts to deep-fry lettuce.

Actually, you never had any great poppers at my place, Astronuc. I stripped out all the seeds and placenta to keep the heat to a minimum so your family would try them. I usually don't do that. Of course, the stuffing of cream cheese and crispy bacon and the topping of melted browned Monterey Jack are just a bit on the high-calorie side. :-p Next time you visit, I'll make two batches - one with all the chilies' innards intact.
 
I didn't know you could order a piece of crap on a plate anywhere. Interesting.

You're just jealous. :biggrin:
 
There are some little diners in the deep south that seem to serve everything deep-fried. Just walk in, take a breath, and you're packing on the pounds. I draw the line at deep-fried breaded okra, though. That stuff is nasty no matter what you do to it - apart from making a base for gumbo. My work sometimes took me to the deep south for weeks at a time - all the way from east Texas to south Georgia and into Florida. Never happened to run into chicken-fried bacon, though.:rolleyes:

Fried okra is a gift from the gods. It is the ONLY way to eat it (other than pickled). I won't eat gumbo with okra in it, when you boil okra it gets slimy and tastes nasty.

Ooh! You'd better not say that anywhere from Orange TX to Moss Point MS and perhaps beyond. Some of those folks get touchy about their recipes. I've had it with chicken and bacon, and closer to the coast, with every kind of seafood they could throw in the pot. Heaven!

Edit: To those who haven't been paying attention, this is the lady who extols the virtue of eggplant - a "vegetable" that is edible only in eggplant parmesan, and could easily be replaced in that dish by cardboard beer coasters.

Blasphemy! Fried eggplant is to die for! It's also incredible in dishes such as ratatouille and moussaka. :!) :!)

cardboard beer coasters :devil: You know, twisting_edge said the same thing. :mad:

I would kill right now for some fried okra and eggplant with a creamy horseradish sauce for dipping.
 
I'll eat batter fried "anything" (*) as long as it is served with garlicky yogurt on top. (No batter, no matter -- I'll still eat it.)

(*) Except seafood.

You'll never find that stuff at my place (except the horseradish), so I guess you'll have to kill someone else. No loss. One less okra/eggplant loving goober to deal with. :devil:

. . . . fried okra and eggplant with a creamy horseradish sauce for dipping.
Yes - I concur - except for the killing and dying parts.

Dying is somewhat counter-productive with respect to enjoying a meal.

Fried okra would hit the spot. I love that stuff. :!)

You're not supposed to just toss it in raw and boil it! :eek: When making gumbo, you should sautee the okra first, to get out the sliminess, then add it to the gumbo. I have a fantastic andouille sausage and chicken gumbo recipe...nothing slimey about it.

I do love fried okra too. Alright, I love all sorts of fried foods. (I'm not sure if adding breading to bacon really makes it much worse than without breading though.) My primary reason for NOT owning a deep fryer is that I'd be tempted to use it too often if I did.
 
lol Moonbear, that's my reason for not owning a deep fryer too. The thought of CFB...kind of makes me feel queezy, I just don't think I could get myself to even bite into it.

Thanks for the clarification. I've never had "slimy" gumbo in the south, so I figured there was more to the preparation than throwing it in the pot. The gumbos that I've had with okra reminded me of what you might be able to make if you used green pea soup as a base.
 
I find it strange that I see so many recipes for gumbo that omit the one ingredient that makes it taste like gumbo - gumbo filé powder. Without that, it's just a stew.
 
I had south asian-style okra and roti last night for supper.
