Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Friday, September 03, 2010

Texas chef Mark Zable has invented deep-fried beer and will unveil it at the state fair. The beer is placed in a pocket of salty, pretzel-like dough and then dunked in oil at 375 degrees for about 20 seconds, a short enough time for the confection to remain alcoholic. "It tastes like you took a bite of hot pretzel dough and then took a drink of beer," he said.

Not many guys I know would be willing to take that chance. They'd probably just wash the pretzel down with a beer on the side.

Hey Mark, put down the bong.

This is so stupid I can't believe Sarah Palin didn't think of it first.

Wow, I bet people will be lining up down the street for a little bit of "deep fried beer"...

What I don't understand is why anyone would want their beer breaded and hot.

Slightly below room temperature with some good head (pun intended) is the best and only way.

Only in America, I love it.

beer AND fried

so will he get a nobel or what????

Well, if you don't think of it as deep fried beer, but instead think of it as a hot pretzel that will get you buzzed, it sounds awesome! Hot pretzels with LSD next?

It may not be as stupid as you think. Fried butter, snickers, twinkies, oreos, marshmellows, coke....

For the last ten years, the OC Fair has come up with something new to deep fry. By far, fried avocado had to be the nastiest thing I have ever seen.

We had Chocolate covered Bacon on a stick at the fair this year. Not bad.

Ever eaten deep fried eel?

I hear that. I spent almost $50.00 one year on chocolate covered bacon.

I think Texas is a great place, especially the pride Texans have in their state. But still, Texas 'chef?'

When I think of Texas food, I think of beef barbecue, beef chili, beef burritos, and of course, dead steer bleeding on my plate. Well, seafood on the Gulf Coast, with steak on the side.

Hardly 'cuisine.'

If I were a Texan, I think I would be offended at the use of 'chef.'

The big time BBQers -- the ones with the cast iron smokers on a trailer chassis -- like to be called "camp boss"

WTF is 'OC'?

WTF is 'OC'?

I assumed his local county started with an 'O'. Overland County fair, e.g.

"Hot pretzels with LSD next?"

next would be THC. and that has already been done.

Texas... go figure.

Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

this was only a matter of time--but really, why not just break your pretzel up and stick in in your beer--

if he could work a Snickers bar in there somehow he might have something

Deep fried butter on a stick was big at last year's local fair here in Winston-Salem. So much so that it garnered media attention.

Warm English Beer mmmmm gooood, including some microbrews.

But warm mass marketed beer, give me a fucking break. Some stuff just ain't worth trying, like this and salt on a marquerita glass.

"WTF is 'OC'?"

Orange County. Newport Beach, Anaheim, Huntington Beach, etc. Sprawling middle-class bedroom communities based around mega-malls.

one of the tailgaters at last weeks cowboy/texan game WHICH TEXANS BEAT THE EVER LOVING SHIT OUT OF THOSE FUCKERS....the grill was about 12 feet AT LEAST filled with every sort of BURNT ANIMAL FLESH you could think of...and over it was a 8 or 9 foot tv screen..needless to say, we didnt get to the inside of the stadiium

Carbs on top of more carbs, with lots of sodium from the pretzel....and then deep fried?

Holy Shit......isn't Texas usually ranked as one of those states with overall poor health?

I think Texas is a great place, especially the pride Texans have in their state.

Whenever anyone has an overabundance of pride for something, it's usually them overcompensating for their knowledge that it really sucks ass.

You clowns have to keep telling yourself "it's not that bad" by going over the top with 'pride'. Most simply think you're assholes.

maybe but by God we know what food is supposed to taste like as we choke and spit and blech and bleed internally

then make sure that you NEVER use one fuckin drop of oil or gas that comes through here..or gas processed by plants where the air is green...but so is the MONEY!!!!!!

otherwise you are just another hypcocrite like the peta people with expensive leather shoes..

oh and...I disagree with your thesis or whatever....being proud of your state and city and things like that dont always mean you are overcompensating on anything

being born in texas means you are born with an 'independence gene'...comes from our state forefathers..THAT and EVERYTHINGS BIGGET IN TEXAS...at least thats what I managed to put over on the out of state dating site...(:)

also post 33..

INCLUDE to that list people like some here who say they HATE texas but dont mind getting a check from a JOB here or not paying STATE INCOME TAX....

hypocrites all

I don't like Saudi Arabia either, but I'm sure I end up using their gas too, as do you.

Face it, your argument is completely lame.

Texas is just fun for some people to bash, even though many have never been. They think it's all cowboys and indians, horses, trailer parks, etc etc etc. Some can't seem to/don't want to grasp that Texas leads the nation in Fortune 500 companies, and has so much more to offer than the "nowhere" states they live in. Please feel free to list reasons why your home states are wonderful.

And as far as having "too much pride", overcompensating for suckassedness.....do you feel the same about homosexuals, blacks, browns, and everything else with PRIDE movements?

Like I said, Texas is fun for people to take shots at, and I don't mind that. It's the ones who know nothing about the subject who annoy me.

Yall have a good night.

#36 It's definitely a sour grapes thing. I made the same challenge you did, but didn't get takers. Nothing is more petty and childish than the "your state sucks" game. So it's always fun to watch people show their true colors when they play it.

Whenever anyone has an overabundance of pride for something, it's usually them overcompensating for their knowledge that it really sucks ass.

So being gay sucks? Being black sucks? You aren't the enlightened liberal you present yourself to be are you, commonsense?

Most simply think you're assholes.

Oh dear. There goes the restful sleep I was hoping for tonight. In fact, I'm so distraught over what everyone thinks, I may never sleep again.

Goat is trolling again I see. Anyways though Texas has its flaws for sure. Ranked last in too many categories like taking care of its poor residents, health care, and the use of the death penalty. Thinks are changing though. Hispanics are taking over the state which I like because they are bringing socialism with them.

god, I love getting under jackass's skin without ever saying a single word to him or replying to him. It's like taking candy from a baby. I just sit back and watch him perform for me. LOL

This sounds completely gross!

A few years ago at the state fair they sold fried Coca Cola. I have no idea how they did it.

Stuck it in a donut and fired it!!

Fried it! lol

I must get under your skin Goat. I'm not the one who accused somebody of sending them self destructs without a scintilla of proof.

Most simply think you're assholes.

If you truly care so little what I think, then why even comment?

So being gay sucks? Being black sucks?

According to many of your fellow republicans, yes.

Because I love to rub your and dullifidian's nose in your childish obsession with hating Texas. Watching you two keep trying to reach those grapes brings a primitive joy to me.

According to many of your fellow republicans, yes

And as you freely admit, you too. So clearly, it's not just republicans. That set also includes hypocritical democrats like yourself it would appear

no its not...we in texas sacrifice things to be the energy capitol such as air quality and threat of explosions and we are ALWAYS high up on target list of terrorists and such...sure we may pay a little less at the pump because of distribution costs and such but please....
my point is that like a guy this AM said...safe drilling or no drilling.

OH REALLY.....does he have his bicycle all greased up and ready to pay 6 bucks a gallon or more?????

DONT TELL THIS TO ANYONE....but sometimes we ask for the comments and thats okay...like a golfing buddy says all the time
"I LOVE IT WHEN the others are jumping my case. that means IM kicking thier ass on the course".

when you are NUMBER ONE>..the rest always take shots at you..

That, coming from an exile who's passing the time waiting for statutes of limitations to expire by peddling hot biscuit futures, absorbium mine stock, and paintings of nothing in particular he's created by blowing enamel paint through a straw onto particle board beside the Bay of Sorrows in East Megalomania.

The only reason the retard above dislikes Texas is because it is generally thought of as a Republican state. I don't hate California because it's deep blue. You have to be really, painfully stupid to hate a state because of it's political leanings. I mean pathetically, awfully, absurdly stupid. Really, really, really, really, really stupid.

I'm just sayin' it's really an exotic locale - the people hate what are commonplace everywhere else - Gay's, Blacks and electricity.

Deep-fried beer?

I don't think I've ever heard of anything quiiiiiite so Texan.
