we loved it!!! We will definitly make again! I agree w/ the other review it puffed up very nice & I may add a little more spice next time but it is still great the way it is, simple breading we served w/ tatar sauce. the beer we used was Becks & we used Peanut Oil & when we ran out we used Canola oil.

I am Married to the same guy for 40 years,I Have 2 beautiful Daughters, who have given me 6

I love to cook,in fact you could call it my favorite hobby
My pet peeve is telemarketers,Every time I get busy with my recipe hobby one of them will call and knock me off the web,and of coarse I waste precious time getting back on.I am disabled,so I no longer work,and have plenty of time to pursue my hobby.
My best dish I make is Lasagna but thats just because I love lasagna.I am also asked to bring No-Bake cookies at all of our potlucks, and linger-longers at church.Meat loaf is another often requested dish I am asked to bring...... NOT MY meatloaf but .... My husbands.
He is as good a cook as I am,He can cook anything I can cook, and I can cook anything he can cook,but some things I make better,and some He makes better...So we do a lot of compromising at our house.
