Jalapeno popper corn fritters - you need to try these

Ok, so I tried a new recipe and it is good enough I wanted to share. Jalapeño popper corn fritters - http://www.closetcooking.com/2013/07/jalapeno-popper-corn-fritters.html?m=1

I roasted the corn on the mini max. Once I had them mixed and ready I cooked them in my carbon skillet on the MM. These were pretty darn good. The sauce was Chuy's cilantro lime jalapeño dip. Recipe: http://www.copykat.com/2014/08/24/chuys-creamy-jalapeno-dip/

I would recommend oiling your hands with cooking spray before forming the patties. They have a tendency to want to stick to your hands making it hard to form the patties. Let them brown well before flipping; handle as little as possible.

Cooked some quesadillas on my plow disk to go along with the fritters. 


A rain shower popped up so I had to finish cooking them inside. I didn't feel like dealing with water dropping into hot oil.

Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...
"Bourbon slushies. Sure you can cook on the BGE without them, but why would you?"

    They really were. The fritters and the Jalapeno dip pushed things over the top.

    @YukonRon Thanks. The truth is I never used to worry about plating before I started hanging out here. My wife enjoys trying to make things look nice - two adults playing with their food, lol.

    This should say it all my friend:

    Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

    Status- Standing by.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.
