I’ll leave all the comments of ‘balls’ aside for the moment.
It’s Paula Dean, for heaven’s sake. The woman can’t cook anything without pulling out half a pound of butter. In fact, the name of the episode in the link is “Everything’s Better with Butter.” (Hmmm. Brophey? Karwood?)
Anyway, I was expecting a sweet dish similar to what AB had in the latest Feasting on Asphalt in the soul food restaurant. That just looked like sweet dumplings in butter. This recipe seems savory rather than sweet. And let us know when you make them Duncan.
The U.N. considers this cruel and unusual and has thus sent out a fact finding mission to Ms. Paula’s kitchen to see what other grave human rights violations she has committed.
I personally am absolutely in love with this woman, but she cooks everything us southerners grew up on. I’m expecting dramatic waist line enhancement as soon as I get her cookbook. I’ve made some of her recipes from online, and NUM. Plus the way she explains things on her shows has helped me a lot in my (still learning) cooking.
And come on. EVERYTHING is better with half a pound of butter in it. *cough*
Rachel Ray… 30 minute meals my ass. Maybe if I had an army of prep chefs like she does before that show. By the time you BUY the off the wall (and for those of us in budget hell, expensive in some cases!) ingredients, cut them up, and get everything ready to go… It’s already been at least 30 minutes– and that’s if you didn’t have to go to the store!
::whispers:: She also did her show down here, the one that is the 40 bucks a day show or whatever, in Charleston, and the rumor is that she tipped terribly. Maybe that’s a local thing, though– we tend to tip high if we can if the service is good to balance out the low (if any) tipping tourists (RACHEL RAY!!! Teaching bad habits!)
…with a nice big bowl of beef suet on the side? 😉
Yeegads!! That sounds like it might taste good for one tiny bite, but after that blah!
It might however be a good stuffing for those chicken Kiev pocket type things, or fish, just add some garlic and dill and use sparingly.
My Cardiologist is Not Amused.
As we say, “A Moment on the Lips, a Lifetime on the Hips….”.
Her demonic eyeballs are floating in pools of off-white gravy.
Butter Balls???!!!
Now I’m really scared, in more ways than one.
*DROOLL** ACk… HEARTATTA….

You got that link from me last October, didn’t you? 😛
Actually I saw her episode on the K.K.holestrol bomb so nah!
<3 me some Ms Paula.

She MUST be stopped, along with Rachel Ray, Nancy Grace, and that freak Guy Fieri who’s hosting ‘Diners Drive Ins and Dives’ on food Network…
Andrew Zimmern can stay cause lets face it, he’s too ultra cool 🙂
I love Guy, he’s a cutie!

Oh wow; I’d eat that. Totally. Wow.
Hey, Y’all! :-}}}}
She’s falling down on the job. I see no mention of mayonnaise anywhere in that recipe.
But yeah, I majorly majorly majorly <3 <3 <3 Miz Paula. And never mind the Really Nasty Things I want to do with her two closet-case sons… *wink*
I hate her too! I’ve watched her twice, and on both shows she did dumbed down versions of other cooks recipes.
Deep… Fried… Butter… Balls…
My only question is…
When are you making them?
Well, that kind of food will keep my plate nicely filled. Custom implant, anyone? Cardio-Defibrillators on special today! 🙂
And the difference between this and deep fried cheese is what, exactly? (I mean, if you similarly object to the cheese, fine, I’m just checking…)
Look out!! Coronary grenades at 12 O’Clock!!!
I read this wrong at first, and thought you said “Deep Fried Buttered Balls”
My first thought was the balls of what?? hehee
That sounds….just disgusting. Blech!
And I thought deep fried Twinkies were bad.
Fat mixed with fat, coated with bread and fat (in the eggs) and then boiled in fat.
Bet it makes you fat.
Here’s a better recipe for balls:
