I'm cooking this to go with the BBQ. For those of you not born in the South, but with lots of green tomatoes on the vine, I submit the following:
Fried Green Tomatoes
1.In a gallon Ziploc bag, put in about 1 ½ or 2 cups of self-rising flour. Add lots of salt and pepper and shake it up.
2.Slice up 4 or 5 or however many maters you want to fry, pretty thick, ½ inch slices. Put about 6 slices in the bag and shake. Let this sit for a while until the mater juices make the flour stick.
3.Heat a skillet with lots of oil to go halfway up the height of the mater slices. Put it medium hot and let it get good and hot. If the oil starts to smoke, turn down the heat a bit. Don’t put the maters in until the oil is hot, or it will ruin everything.
4.Put in the slices and leave them alone. When the bottoms are brown, use tongs and a spatula to turn them gently. Meanwhile, have 6 more slices of mater getting nice and gluey in the bag.
5.Drain on paper towels. Repeat until all of the slices are cooked.
