I usually cook a bunch when I make em so here goes:

1/2 bag of House Altree hush puppy mix(with or without onion, up to you)
2 eggs
3/4 of cold beer(your choice) drink the rest
3 tablespoons of diced jalapenos

Mix well & fry about 2 mins, flip fry 1-2 more mins

Go check out the Mississippi Off Topic board, we have a recipe thread there and my puppy recipe is there. Most folks that don;t even like them, love mine. BTW, in place of jalapenos IF you like hot stuff, fine dice some habeneros and put in there YUMMMM

I have herd the trick to good puppy’s is fry in well used oil in stead of new oil.

OK - better recipe with used oil - like maybe after frying all the fillets? I could fry some HP's first, then the fish, then more puppies in the same oil, just to taste the difference.

Way back in the 70s we were waiting outside a popular seafood rest. in Murrell's Inlet, SC for a table. We saw a delivery truck in back unloading supplies. I asked what kind of breading and hushpuppy mix did they buy. They told me they only use House Autry. Been using it ever since. Using beer instead of water makes the hushpuppies lighter and crunchier. http://www.house-autry.com/
If you go to their site, they got a lot of recipes, including the hushpuppy ones.

SeaRay thanks so much for the website info. Lots of good recipes to try out. Ferdi

I love the ones wal mart sales. Usually in seafood section. Clear bag. Best if u let them thaw for 30 minutes then cook.
