Tri-Tip & Crab Fritters

Tri-Tip & Crab Fritter
Surf & Turf
​

The wife had a hankering for some crab, so we picked up a pound of lump crab meat and decided to cook it up into some fritters with a side of tri-tip.

#171 was setup with the MAK Griddle & Split Grate, set to 275°, a sprinkling of Little Louie's w/black pepper and the tri-tips were on.

Asparagus on an upper half rack, then later some Garlic & Herb Beer Drop Biscuits.

Mixed up the Beer Batter Crab Fritters (Lump Crab, Flour, egg, Baking Powder, Beer, Roasted Red Pepper, Scallions & some seasonings.

Tri-tip, Asparagus & Biscuits done... time to fry the fritters!

Tri-tips sliced nice & thick...

Crab Fritters Plated...

Biscuits brushed with some melted Garlic & Chive Butter...

Plated & served with some rice...

The Crab cakes were tender Hot & full of flavor.

We ate well tonight!

Thanks.

Cliff,
That is one outstanding looking meal. The crab fritters took it over the top. I wish we could find some tri-tip around here. Everytime I see someone cook it, I get jealous. I may make a trip to a butchershop in Taylorsville this week to see what they have. Since it is a "butchershop", hopefully I can get at least one tri-tip. If you see me cook it, I was successful.

Cliff,
You may need to come up with something you can cook at SEGASO. You have us all drooling everytime you post something.

P.S. Rick has enough equipment to cook something, sometime during SEGASO.

Art, I am actually planning to bring the Weber/Stoven Combo. I love that it's designed to be portable.

Sparky, I'm definitely looking forward to meeting you too (& Art, & Rick, & Deb, & Rip...). Oh yeah... and finally getting a Fat Tire!
