Their greatness can not be equaled.

Well, I'm sure it could, but those are some damn fine cheese sticks.

Just guessing here

mozzarella cheese cut into large sticks

dredge in flour (might need an initial egg wash if enough flour isn't sticking)
egg wash
then panko

then deep fried prob around 375, pull before cheese leaks out. season with a little powdered parmesan and parsley flakes and serve with chunky marinara.

They have a buttery taste to it so they prob use some sysco butter-it in the fryer.

The Caterie was the all time best. Buy blocks of mozzarella at Sams. Cut to desired size; dust in flour and shake off excess; dip in eggwash; Louisiana seasoned fish fry or their chicken fry and put in refrigerator for about twenty to thirty minutes so let coating set; fry three or so minutes at 350.

I cant stand dipping in the marinara so I use ranch or bleu cheese.

I tried it the first time I went there due to the rave reviews and I have to say I was very disappointed.

Not that it was bad at all. It was quite good. But it was still just fried cheese.

That's how I feel everytime someone I'm with orders it.

The Walk-On's in Lafayette has great fried cheese. I have never been to the one in BR, but they are legit.

Used to do prep work there. It's been eight or so years, but here is the process. I thik I covered everything but the exact spices, but prob only missing one or two of those.

1)Mozz chz cut into desired legnth.
2)make two buttermilk washs - don't belive we used egg, but can double check on that.
3)flour mixed with seasonings - salt, red pepper, etc. whatever floats your boat.
4) Panko mixed with italian seasonings such as basil and oregano, granulated garlic.

process:

dip chz into first buttermilk wash. Take them out and coat in the flour mix. Remove from flour mix and dip into second buttermillk wash. Coat with panko mix. lay out on waxpaper lined container, can be stacked in layers with wax paper between each layer.

Put in fridge to harden. Usually overnight.

fry them up. Believe our fryers were at 350.

I said it was quite good. What is there to understand?

Good fried cheese. I expected something more.
