DEEP FRIED OYSTERS
I acquired a taste for oysters when I was 10 years old, but the oysters had to be deep fried! 26 years later, I still will only eat them deep fried. I think this recipe is simple, yet packs big flavor. I hope you enjoy it.

Steps:
- 1. Heat oil in a saucepan over medium high heat until a thermometer registers 350 to 375 degrees.
- 2. Mix together the cracker meal and flour and spices. Place cracker meal mixture in a shallow pan or food storage bag.
- 3. Shake oysters from oyster juices. Add enough oysters to cracker meal to fit into the first batch of hot oil
- 4. Fry until oysters float to the top, about 3 minutes, turning once with tongs.
- 5. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining oysters. Serve with lemon wedges.
- 6. Note: to make cracker meal crush saltine crackers or oyster crackers in a food storage bag. Roll with a rolling pin to achieve very fine crumbs.
