Have your own fish fry! You can substitute cod or another white fish for the bluefish if desired.
2 pounds bluefish
1 1/2 cup flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons lemon-pepper seasoning
10 ounces beer
3 eggs, beaten
Fillet and skin bluefish. Cut dark streak out of fish. Cut into serving size pieces.
Mix in bowl the flour, baking powder, salt, and lemon-pepper. Add beer and eggs to mixture, stir. Put fish in batter and let set for about 20 minutes.
Deep fry fish until golden brown. Leftover batter is great for frying oysters, without a fishy taste.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Fantastic! Wasn't sure if bluefish would taste as good as other whitefish I've beer-battered before, but the proof was in the taste. Delicious, crispy, not fishy. Just perfect. I was sure to remove all "red line" from each fillet by cutting out the red center 1/4" or so. Then I cut each "half" fillet into smaller pieces, around 2" squares. Gave it a good half hour in the batter before frying and fried at 375 degrees in a rectangular electric skillet with about 1/2" of oil in bottom. I'll make this again and invite a crowd, because it made a lot of fried fish out of 4 10" fillets. Thanks for the recipe!
