Fish Frying Made Easy: Get Everything You Need at Buchheit
There’s nothing better than a crispy, golden fish fry—whether you’re cooking up a fresh catch from your pond or hosting a backyard fish fry with friends and family. The good news? Buchheit has everything you need to fry up the perfect batch, from batter and fryers to the right tools to get the job done right.
The secret to a perfect fish fry starts with a good batter. Whether you like it light and crispy or thick and crunchy, Buchheit has a variety of seasoned fish fry mixes that take the guesswork out of coating your fillets. For an extra-crunchy finish, try adding a little cornmeal to your mix.
Nobody likes a sticky, clumpy mess in the kitchen. A batter bowl makes coating your fish quick, easy, and mess-free. Just add your batter, toss in your fillets, shake, and you’re ready to fry.
A good fryer makes all the difference. Whether you prefer a deep fryer, propane fish fryer, or classic cast-iron skillet, Buchheit has the right setup for frying indoors or outdoors. Pro tip: A deep fryer with a basket makes cooking and draining easier.
For crispy, golden fish, heat your oil to 350-375°F before dropping in your fillets. Peanut, vegetable, or canola oil all work great for frying. If the oil is too hot, the outside burns before the inside cooks. Too cool, and you’ll end up with greasy fish. A good thermometer helps keep things just right.
A good fish fry isn’t complete without the classics. Pick up some hushpuppy mix, coleslaw fixings, and fries to round out your meal. And don’t forget the tartar sauce, lemon wedges, and hot sauce for extra flavor.
From batter and bowls to fryers and tools, Buchheit has everything you need for a perfect fish fry. Stop by and stock up before your next fry—your taste buds will thank you.
