Tammy’s Fried Squash is the Best!
Fried Summer Squash
1 LB. OF FRESH SUMMER SQUASH
1/8 CUP WHOLE BUTTERMILK
1.5 CUPS SELF-RISING FLOUR (WHITE-LILY)
SALT & PEPPER
CHOPPED ONION IF DESIRED
Wash squash and snip off ends with a knife. Cut squash in 1/4-inch-thick pieces. Cut circle pieces in half. Place in a medium bowl and pour buttermilk on it and mix it well.
Put 1/2 cup self-rising flour in bottom of a pie plate. Add half of squash. Salt and pepper generously. Using a sifter with selfrising flour, coat squash well. Pour in remaining squash and repeat by adding salt, pepper, and flour. IRON SKILLET, WOK, OR LARGE SKILLET COOKING OIL (CANOLA OR VEGETABLE)
Put enough oil in skillet to be about 1” deep. Oil must be HOT. Put a breaded piece of squash in oil and once it floats and sizzles, your oil is hot and ready! It takes a good 20 minutes to fry up squash.
Do Not Rush. Flip a maximum of three times. Let squash sit in hot grease until it is golden brown before turning it over. Add more oil after turning once. You may have to rotate okra from edges to middle, so all will brown if you have a gas stove. Fry until it is golden brown. Take out with large, slotted spoon and place on a paper towel covered platter/plate.

Omg Tammy you are the best chicken mama. I never saw a picnic table for your chickens before that is adorable.
Love your videos Tammy & Chris ❤
Great meal! What brand of spices did you use?
that looks great, all of it. thanks for the vo.
Haven’t watched ya’ll cook on Facebook in a long time. On u tube all the time! 😍
Looks good!
The chops are beautiful. I do my thick chops in my air fryer. They are so tender and flavorful.
The only way I like these thick pork chops, I slice them part way, then stuffed them with Broccoli and zucchini , and squash chopped. then sear them in a skillet and then place them in the oven 350 , for 45 minutes.
Tammy, try seafood breader for your squash. Has the coating and all of the seasonings in it. I like Lakeside seafood breader from NC. I use it on my fried chicken, too.
Tammy, you’re the best
I'm watching from YouTube now. Enjoy your videos very much. I'm in Midway.
So glad to see you on YouTube. We love ground pork mixed with ground beef for burgers on the grill and meatloaf.
I met Sam Elliot at the Houston galleria mall. lol!
I am back.
Hello Tammy and Chris! I am watching the rerun!
I am interested in seeing how the thick pork chops turn out.
Use Bar Keeper’s Friend (the powder is what I use) to clean hard to scrub spots off your enamel cookware. Works like a charm!
I watch you on both Facebook and YouTube. I’m sorry fb is a problem!
Sam Elliott!!
I tried the White Lilly Bread Flour. It is fantastic and much cheaper than other brands.
Growing up my mom would make fried squash like you used to. It was so yummy; was a treat bcuz she didn't fry foods very often. Those were beautiful chops!! Your chicken eat well 😂!
I understand your frustration with Facebook. You are one of many
We have a local meat market that buys from locally raised cow, pig, lamb an goat, and process it at the store, talk bout fresh! Shopping there is a real treat, they smoke the meats as well. 😋
Loved the video 😂 You made me laugh Tammy. Food looked delicious 😋
Woo! We went for a ride at the end! lol I enjoyed the meal and the video visiting, thank you! I hope y’all have a good one!
Good evening Tammy and Chris. Squash looks delicious. Where did you get the chicken silverware? Have a Blessed Day 😊
Tammy I’ve never cooked squash like that. Thanks for showing me another way to cook it. I love love yellow squash. Thanks to you/Chris
Hello from Mocksville, North Carolina!❤ OMG… I LOVE THE TWO OF YOU!! Y'all are so cute together💞 I like YouTube better. I'm sorry you and so many others are having issues with FB. Your meal looks delicious 😋

I have been watching on Utube. I do not deal with FB. I Love your show. 🙏🙏
I came as quick as you asked..love you
i seriously doubt Chris noticed you had the pan on high heat while filming you around the kitchen. And it is not his fault if you make a mistake. It’s ok to be wrong or to make a mistake, no reason to blame someone else.
Man those pork chops look so beautiful and delicious! I’ve never had one that thick but NOW I sure want one!
One word, “YUM!”
My dad’s doctor
told my mom pork I the other white meat !!!
He had bleeding
ulcers and had
to watch what
he ate!!!
Ground pork with a little ground beef mixed in makes a great meatloaf topped with a brown sugar and honey glaze.
I sure got a kick out you today lol watching you cook and get tips is my favorite thing to do ! Thank you Ms Tammy 🩷
