Recipe Description
I don’t know about you, but when I am eating good BBQ, nothing goes better with it than a side of fried okra and hush puppies. Well, my hubby and I mastered fried okra (click here for recipe), and set out to master hush puppies!
Since my kiddos were going to be trying them, I decided to not use jalapenos in our first batch. The end result was fabulous and my kids, especially my daughter, went crazy over them!! I think next time, I may put half the batter aside and add in some jalapenos for my hubby and I. The added kick from the peppers would be a great addition!
