Sounds Fishy...

About a month ago, my husband's family and I enjoyed some relaxation on the beaches of Port St. Joe, Florida, where he was lucky enough to take a 12-hour deep-sea fishing excursion (I, on the other hand, got sea-sick on the dock and backed out of the trip!).  While out, he caught the maximum amount of grouper, as well as a bullshark!

Packed in ice, and ready to prepare

Once caught, we had more pounds of fish than we knew what to do with!  We had them all cleaned up and shipped up to Ohio and prepared a big fish fry (well, big for 4 people to eat).  Frying fish was EASY and super delicious.





Our finished product - fried & delicious


Ingredients:
*1 Can of Beer (experiment with different types - we made three types: Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy, Great Lakes Burning River, and Guinness Black Lager)
*Bisquick
*Fish (cut up in small pieces & de-bone)
*Oil to fry in (I used Olive Oil, for health's sake, but veggie oil tastes great & is cheaper too!)

Directions:

*Mix the bisquick in the beer until consistency is how you desire.  (The thicker the batter, the thicker the breading once fried.  I liked a thinner batter fried because it made it nice and crispy.  It was much messier to handle while frying, however!)

*Drop into heated oil.  Cook about 5 minutes.
*Spoon out (don't burn yourself!) and let sit on papertowels to soak up some grease.

We had corn-on-the-cob on the grill while we fried, so a delicious meal was done all about the same time!

Enjoy :)
