Fried "Hefeweizen"-battered Grouper Fillets
Ingredients
Fish:
- Obviously you would need some grouper fillets :p
Beer Batter:
- 1 six pack of UFO Hefeweizen beer...You can use other craft/microbrews but it need to be something a bit stronger on the alchoholic content than your typical Budweiser.
- 1 box Zataran's seasoned fish fry
- 2 large eggs

Directions
- Break out the Fry-Daddy...plug it in and add desired amount of Peanut or Canola oil.
- Take one bottle of Hefeweizen, open and insert into mouth...drink responsibly.
- Cut Grouper fillets into desired size. I like to leave mine a little larger than most, perhaps the size of an index card.
- In a large bowl, pour in 1 bottle of the remaining 5 Hefeweizen. Pour 2 cups of Zataran's into the bowl, add eggs and whisk until evenly mixed. Pat fish dry and coat the fish in the beer batter. Dredge the pieces of fish in 1 cup of remaining Zataran's and slide into oil as coated. Fry fish, turning over frequently, until deep golden and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet or plate.
- Grab fish and remaining 4 beers and chow down...Boudin balls sold separately :p

I know, I know... it's simple and most people know how to beer batter fish but I wanted to highlight the difference in taste you get with the craft or microbrew beers. Plus, maybe some of our friends from out of town would like to try it...
