I made this exactly like the recipe said, except that I didn't know I didn't have eggs when I made it. So I covered them in Panko before frying them. They turned out awesome!!

These were really good! I also used half beer and half milk and dried the tomato slices before I dipped them in the batter. The batter was so good I used it on some green peppers, too. Great!

This is an amazing recipe! If you prefer a strong beer flavor, use the whole bottle (12 oz), or if not, use half beer and half milk. To get the batter to really adhere to the tomatoes, dry the slices thoroughly with paper towels before dipping. These were so good we made a meal of them and tall glasses of iced tea!

FORGET trying to make fried green tomatoes the way mom used to.... This recipe is wonderful. I didn't use the whole can of beer only about 3/4 of the can. Batter was perfect, and cooked to a beautifull golden brown. Used the remainder of batter, added a bit of cornmeal and finished it up with okra!! PERFECTION

I would have given it 5 but I had to improvise with some of the ingredients and technically I have never had fried green tomatoes, so I have nothing to compare them to, but they were delicious! I used wheat flour because that's what I had. I subbed the beer for chicken stock and added some canned green chilies to the wet batter. Next time, I will add more red pepper flakes to make it a little hotter.

These are great. I add some cornmeal, but I like them that way. Other than that, I did it just as described. Thanks for the great photo too! I MUCH prefer recipes with photos. I should take a few of my stuff, but I've got four kids and food does not stick around long enough!

Yum! I really enjoyed these. However, I did add 1/4 cup of corn meal to the batter, it helps to make the batter stick to the tomatoes better.

Thank you for your comments on this recipe. I didn't make the recipe real spicy just in case some do not like the kick to it. Therefore, just add the crushed red pepper flakes to your taste more for spicier. I used Bud Light for the beer. The batter should not be real thick but you should have a light thin coating so you taste the tomatoe more than the flour. Thank you again for your reviews :)

This recipe was great when I modified it. It's not spicy at all, but that was fine. I had to add a lot more flour to get a thick enough consistency for a batter that would stick. I fried these at 375 degrees in a deep fat fryer. They were delicious! Just add more flour. I also like to salt the tomatoes while they are cooling.
