- How to make Fried Green Tomatoes is kind of a lengthy video....just to fry a tomato. I mean, how hard could frying a tomato be? Well, it's a little more complicated than just throwing them in your frying pan for a few minutes and then serving them up. If you want them to taste good, you have to have a little patience and do it right.
This is my granny's recipe of course. I can remember helping granny make Fried Green Tomatoes at a very young age. I was so small that I had to stand on a homemade wooden stool that Paw had made, just to be able to see into the cast iron frying pan on the stove.
I took a particular interest in granny's cooking because she let me get involved in every aspect of it. I helped her plant the tomatoes, hoe the weeds out of the garden, stake them, pick them when they were ready, and then bread them and fry them.
Granny taught me that making Fried Green Tomatoes takes patience. It was a good life lesson. She said that if you don't teach yourself to be patient, then God would teach you and you're not gunna like the way he teaches!
Ingredients:
3 - Totally green tomatoes
1 cup - Self rising flour
1 - Egg
1 cup - Buttermilk
1 to 2 cups - Yellow corn meal
1 cup - Oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Sugar - Optional

*I was born and raised in the BIG CITY OF CHICAGO, and I love this channel and this woman's recipes. She is intelligent and really explains things. Christians live in big cities too! God bless you all.* 😊 ✝️✝️✝️
CUB NATION108 Thanks for the reminder that we have Christian Brothers and Sisters in the big city. Here in the small town we have gotten the idea that cities are full of crazy, heathen, liberals.
Bless you in Chicago.
@@tthompson3609 🤗🤗💞💞💞
Hallelujah Jesus! Hi Chi town!! God Bless you so much ❤️ 🙏 💖
@@catherinemoore2188 Thank you. 😊 May God also bless you and yours. 🌈🌈🌈
Now I know how to make the best and delicious fried green tomatoes!😋 Thanks Becky!👍
I'm a bit confused. You wipe the salt off with a paper towel and then salt them again with the pepper?
This may be the Last Frontier of true wholesome family entertainment. You are a gift from God lady ❤
How anyone can "dislike" this fine lady's videos is beyond me. She is simply beautiful, her recipes are flawless, and her explanations and demonstrations are excellent! God bless you!
If people aren’t from the South, they just don’t understand this type of cooking. I referred The Cracker Barrel restaurant to a friend who is from New Jersey. She nearly gagged. Different strokes. I love fried green ‘maters and all of Becky’s recipes.
All the gun shooting noise is over the top. Okay yes I get it you love your guns but really it’s unnecessary. We get it!
Sean Bryant city folks just don’t get it
Astro Queen shut up
@@tamlynn786 wow, you are one classy lady... Or not. Maybe you should go make your own videos full of nasty comments, criticism and profanity. Your behavior is rude and unpleasant.
I like to save the ends in the freezer and add them to soup for extra flavor. I also freeze lemons to avoid letting them get moldy. They still taste okay when you defrost them and use them. Don't cut them in half. Just puncture the stem end after running hot water over them and squeeze the juice out. You can save lemon skin in the freezer to use later in recipes for cookies, etc.Waste not, want not.
I also chop up and freeze onions, green peppers, and celery when they are no longer fresh. They are perfect for soup and stews.
So delicious
One of my favorite movies of all times, "Fried Green Tomatoes". Kathy Bates should have received a academy award for it!!! Look delish!!!
This the first time I've seen the family presented as they are at the beginning!! So beautiful!!!!!!
Arkansas here and absolutely 💯 AMEN love these. Amen
Hi Becky
I really enjoy your videos.
I am learning from you. Your granddaughter is very precious.
I would like to proclaim that Jesus Christ is my personal Saviour and I am thankful He died on the cross to save us from our sins. Praise GOD.
Thank you :) She is almost two, spoiled rotten and loved to pieces.
Amen! God Bless You!!!
Virginia Atkins I’m with you girlfriend.
Virginia Atkins I'm with you too!!
This is the best recipe I've ever seen ,and I'm a Texan ,bread,born and raised . I love your channel.
We've done this same method with summer squash and eggplant too. I love any of those three as a side dish.
Thanks! I'll have to try it those ways to!
Just Love ya youngin, you are not ashamed of talking God and and speaking truth roll on Baby roll on!
I don't believe in God or the rest, but the bible helps set us on track to follow goodnessif we so care to do so. It's her channel, play whatever you want. People aren't made to watch. I like her channel no matter what her beliefs.
@@applepiebetty Thank you for being respectful. I can't tell you how many insulting comments on Christianity I've seen this week alone.
Himalayan pink salt is what I use. Having a triple bypass, and now living with heat failure, It is my choice, it has over 51 different minerals, and is not processed. Easy to find also. I also use peanut oil for all my frying. Last cholesterol test was a total of 124, so I just be doing something right.
All the glory to God. Thanks for the tips. Gonna try and find some green matters and fry some up. Maybe a pot of green beans and new taters on the side. Oh yummy. God Bless and keep you and yours.
What about sea salt?
Now your talking . Love green beans and new potatoes. It would be great with fried green matters and fried chicken. I'm hungry
My Grandma use to talk about taking a fried green tomato sandwich when she was little in school her Mama would cook them up every morning for 8 kids back in the 20s &30s. They would do squash for sandwiches. They didn't have money they were coal miners. The meat they are was mostly what they could shoot. My Great Grandma was 97 years old when she passed back in 1982. Nothing beats country cooking. ❤
I wish I could find green tomatoes in Seattle, but I can’t. So every SHORT summer, I grow my own tomatoes. I fry most of them green before they rippen. 👍🏼
I think that's great
That was so much fun. Now we can start a Whistle Stop Café! 💛💚💛
That is one place I usually try to visit on my way to Florida.
Juliette Georgia.
Great food at The Whistle Stop.
Love that movie ! ! ! ! You know, pigs are very closely, physically equivalent to humans.
One of my all-time favorite foods. Nothing better than locally grown, garden fresh produce.
That's right up my alley I love same fry green tomatoes
Mine too. Love them on rye bread!
Girl....you are a pleasure to watch. You know your stuff and are doing a terrific job. Bless your heart.
My grandma would put the salt & pepper in with the flour.
That way she wouldn't have to season each piece separately.
I put salt and pepper and garlic powder on my while they are frying
I always mix the cornmeal, flour, salt and pepper together. Less steps with the same results.
You can also try salting them on both sides and pepper them at once . Saves a lot of time.
I do that also.
Mary Legan she is individually salting them before flouring to draw the water out of them first.
It's great to hear the term "maters"!!! That's a kentucky word!!! I ❤ love it when we all.get to be ourselves and use our own way of talkin!!! It's a homey feeling to be in her kitchen!!!
People that put down these great southern recipes more than likely get their salsa from New York City. Because they don't know what good is.
Now, now... No need d to be insulting. It's possible to appreciate southern cooking AND get good salsa in nyc
@@awilliams9986 whatever that means
Right..lol
@@awilliams9986 oh, I don't watch much tv
I make my own salsa in NC!
You can make sandwiches out of them. I use to do that as a young man. I haven't cooked them in years. I do love them. I for sure will make them this summer. I truly hope you have a Blessed Week. God Bless You Always.
yep on light bread with mayo
I had never had a fried green tomato sandwich until I met my husband. He ate them and taught me about them. And now they are one of my favorites now. Delicious on white bread with mayo.
Just want to say thanks for the great recipes. Just like Moms home cooking, but with helpful hints I didn't remember. You have a great show. God bless you.
I am drooling and wishing I had some of those fried green maters. I'm going to bed and try to dream that I'm stuffing my face with a bunch of 'em. Oh, dear Lord, deliver me ...
All I can say is....yum...
Love love Fried Green Tomatoes!!!!!
Me too :)
Also, I never had fried green tomatoes in my life... heard about them alot how great they are... I am going to try your recipe. Thank you soo much. Happy I found your channel. ❤
Many blessings for you and your family🙏🏼
Whatever you do, don't serve fried green tomatoes at the same meal as ripe tomatoes.
Just a little tip: I use a serrated knife or in a pinch use can use a bread knife to slice the maters. I find I can control the slicing and how thick you want them. Just saying ............😊 love your channel.
She did just fine with the knife she used.
Connie Hale, I always cut crooked with a serrated knife which is why I prefer a very sharp chef knife or utility knife (I find paring knives to be too short for some veggies). Just my two cents. Have a wonderful day.
I agree. I prefer a serrated knife too.
Boning knife for me because of the thinner blade !
I use a bread knife. Works great.
Love all the good tips about nutrition, tradition, cooking, etc. Excellent instructions! Thank you.
Thank you! My husband keeps begging me to make these, and you were a huge help to me.
Thanks for watching!
My Mama raised us kids on this kind of food and she taught us about Jesus since we were little! God Bless You and Your Family Becky! Keep telling the way story of Jesus Christ!👍👍
I have just stumbled across this wonderful channel and am so glad I did! We live in the South, and fried green tomatoes are a favorite and worth all the effort to make them like she demonstrates. I can't wait to watch some more of her videos. This is true cooking at its finest.
Loving your videos....I'm a country raised woman and live in East Texas...proud of my country raising and heritage..Im 72 y/o❤🙏
I Love Your Show. Now I know why my fried green tomatoes were soggy. This show took care of all that. Great Job!! Thanks for making God a part of all our lives.
Thank you! God Bless You!!!
@@TheHillbillyKitchen thank u your great
Hey Becky from Ohio. I absolutely love fried green tomatoes. Thanks for sharing your recipe with us. Sending blessings and love your way. Thanks for reminding us to put God first. ❤️✝️
I lurve fried green tomatoes! Never have been able to get them right at home. Thank you so much for the tips! Praying my garden produces oodles so I can give this a try. 🥰
As a Christian myself and a man who loves food and I really like to cook ......and my wife loves it when I cook for her " I enjoy watching The Hillbilly Kitchen ...the video's have a down home feel to them ......comfortable....I like her take on the Gospel very heart felt and accurate....love the recipe's..........country cooking like it should be ......easy to follow along with what she's doing.
Thank you Becky. I love fried green tomatoes and this recipe is the best.
Those look delicious. but I have never had them. I’m gonna try them tho.
Love this woman! She knows how to country cook!
Thank you 😊
Great recipe ... I love that Becky gives a number of options as well as the basic recipe!
❤👵🇨🇦
That little one with that little rolling pin just takes my whole Heart! 😍❤️😍
Awww Thank you so much now I know why mine are so soggy!!!! My Mamaw's was always perfect. Guess I missed the drying part...lol. I Love your channel keep them coming❤️❤️❤️
Me too I didn't know why they were soggy
Becky, my mouth was watering the whole time watching this! Your fried green 'maters look amazing! I'm a country girl with Kentucky roots and these are a favorite from my past. I have a girl friend, also a country girl, who makes these with red ripe tomatoes! I'm not that brave. I can't wait to try your recipe. I love your channel, watch it every day. God bless and keep you always. Alexandra from Indianapolis
Excellent recipe, will be trying this week with my green maters. My husband's grandmother made them with the sugar and he loves them. But now I have the secret to keeping them crispy, which is just good science. THANKS! And you are so right about the choices with fats, thanks for pointing that out, more folks need to know that!
Thank you :) I have found that it is hard to top what a grandmother made, but these will be really close to as good as your husband's grandmother's. I would die without fried food, but as I get older eating healthy is also as necessary for life. You really can have your fried foods and eat them too!
@@TheHillbillyKitchen I put a tablespoon of sugar in cornmeal, does help with taste and browning.
You are such a gift. I enjoy your videos and share your love of God. Thank you for your sweet spirit, willingness to share and great recipes.
Thank you 😊 God Bless You!
Did anyone else know she was gonna say “tomaters” before the video started😂. I agree, her recipes are really good!!
I like your down to earth attitude your Christian values you're not afraid to share. And o course your Southern food. Great job.🙋♀️
Don't know how you appeared, all of a sudden on my computer, but the grub you cook up is what I was raised on as a boy on a Dickson County Farm in Middle Tennessee way back in the 1930 and 1940s. Glad the Good Lord threw you and your cooking my way. I'll definitely cook up some of the old long ago recipes you are showing on You Tube. Thank You and God Bless you and your family.
She started showing up in my recommended feed, and I'm so glad I found this channel. She's making the food my daddy and granny used to make. Foods I'd forgotten about. There's another video for salmon patties! 😁😁
This Fried Green Tomatoes recipe looks so delicious 😋 Ms. Becky.
I just found your videos, and I just love them. Every tip you give makes perfect sense. Your explanations for why you are doing things the way you are, are so helpful! Also, thank you so much for putting the list of ingredients beneath the video! So many people give another place where you have to go for the recipe. That makes no sense to me! You really do make things easy for the home cook!
Sounds good with a touch of sugar! 🤗❤️🤗
For oil, you want to check two basic things: omega 3 to omega 6 and smoke point. There are more things to look at, but if the oil is really high in omega 6 you don't want that. You also need to make sure that the oil's smoke point is higher than the temperature that you plan to cook it with.
I'm so happy to see you're back. Your recipe looks delicious.
Thank you :) It is good to be back!
Thank You,Thank You Becky!! I knew there was a reason God brought you into my Life. My Daddy and Aunt use to make Fried Green Tomatoes before they passed into their Heavenly Home. That’s been over 45 years. I just loved them. However I never was taught to make them. Enter Becky to teach me!! I feel so Blessed that I now can now make Delicious Fried Green Tomatoes to feed to my Husband and Family!! I also get to be with Daddy and Aunt smiling!! God Bless and keep your Eyes on Jesus🙏 Bless To You!! 🤗😊
You are 100% about the healthiest oil & fat choices... thank you. I see lots of cooks using olive oil and butter together. I must try these. They look amazing!!! 🍅
I use olive oil and butter to fry, cook everything..try a fried egg it's yummy
If a woman is lucky enough to find a man that puts God first.....she is truly blessed. I really enjoy your videos and I am so happy that you have that. I just subscribed after binge watching for 3 days. Thank you for sharing this with us.
when i heard you properly pronounce tomatoes asmaters i knew this would be good
Tomatoes aren’t properly pronounced as maters. SMH. Sounds childish. JS
@@phyllisdeamicis3356 That's 'cause UR not Southern, right?
It's tamaters y'all
The American pronunciation of "tomatoes" is
"tuh mei towz".
Some of y'all must not be from the south ! I have been many parts of this great nation and everybody pronounce things differently everywhere I went ! It didn't matter whether it was Pennsylvania up north or Georgia down south , Oregon out west , Arizona in the southwest , North Dakota , Texas or Kansas ! So y'all just take a chill pill and learn to cook real food !
I love this video and come back here often to refresh my memory on how to fix these. Thank you Ms Becky for the recipe! God bless!
I LOVE your videos❤. You are amazing and I am loving your faith, your recipes and your beautiful family!
Ohhh did I say I love fried green tomatoes and can’t wait to try it! Thank you!
I love Fried Green Tomaters and yes I'm southern too And I'm proud of it God Bless you
God Bless You Jonathan!
Thank you! I love how you explain "why" you do or use certain things. I've only watched 2 of your videos so far and I've learned many things! I just stumbled across your channel and we're a home that puts God first too! Very cool that you added that....many blessings to you!
I love your show. I think you are precious!! I'm thankful that you belong to Christ. God Bless you!!!
Thank you very much, God bless you!
I only wanted them because of the Movie w/Kathy Bates. 🎥
Hi Becky, I looked up this video cause I'm making fried green matters for supper and you're the only choice for true southern cookin! Thanks, and may our Lord be with you and yours.
I truly love your channel. I'm an English man in love with the South. God bless you and muck love to you x
I enjoy your show so much and I'm glad you're a Christian and I appreciate so much your cooking demonstrations. Keep it up and have a blessed day!

Love your cooking show us of good food may god bless your show
Nice presentation. Thank you from a tomato (maters) lover.
... and it's not going to be a fork anymore. I love it!
my mom loves fried green tomatoes. can't wait to make these for her. thanks for the recipe
Let me know how they come out and what she thinks of them. Thanks for watching :)
First and foremost I would like to say, I absolutely love you. I love your show. You talk about God & share His Word.
This is one reason I love watching your videos. Plus you have some great recipes and I can't wait to try them.
I love fried green tomatoes.
Thank you for not being ashamed of sharing God and His love.
God bless you my sister in Christ. May you have a beautiful blessed day.
I love to take the tomatoes and use them in a hamburger in place of the meat and serve it as a meal.
God bless you all...
My husband has made sandwiches out of them for years, with a little ketchup on them.
Hey, I have seen your videos and subscribed for a long time now. But, this is the first time that I have left a comment. Just wanted to tell you, I love you! You are always a caring person and what a teacher you are. I am a country transplant that lives now in Baltimore. I grew up touching the Cherokee Reservation. Raised with country meals and fresh garden veg and lots of Christian get-togethers. I feel like I am home when you talk. It reminds me that God is real and looking after us all! Thank you, for being you!
Only way I can think of that your videos could be better is if you made 'em at my house! LOL!
I agree... Except she needs to make them at MY house. 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
No, no, no, at MY house.
@@donnasmith4107 Absolutely, they'll taste better with sharing.
At My house and all of you can come too! That would be awesome!
@@Simplytrusthim If i wasn't actually quite introverted, shy, & awkward at meeting a group of strangers, i'd suggest we pick a central location to us all & meet up for a potluck when this tragedy is over.
You, my dear, are a treasure. Although I live in California, I really wish you were my neighbor ❤️
Thank you for saying that, you are very kind. God bless you!
I live in NW Ontario Canada and my neighbors love this , Great way to make them..
Yum becky! I can hardly wait for my tomatoes to get to the point of fried Green tomato. It won't be long now. Thanks for all your hard work and yes, put God first!
Looks delicious I definitely going to try this recipe
You are 100% correct in saying that there are healthy oil choices. God bless you and thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes and down to earth advice.
Thank you for your response Becky.I did see the film you mention with Jessica Tandy,one of my favourite films. I made your corn bread,my family loved it as its not something we eat in Scotland .please don't disappear again.Looking forward to your next video..Thank you.
Those women really knew how to hide a body :)) Cornbread originated in this part of America, if not of the internet it would probable have stayed here. America has been called a melting pot because we are a nation of immigrates from all over the world. Our food is certainly a sample of the world, we have a little bit of everything here.
Thank you :) I am trying really hard to get up at least one video a week.
Becky , so nice to see you ! God bless you and your girls . I always check your recipes. Thank you for sharing the word of God !! 😃🌹🌹🌹🌹🙏
I would like to make a suggestion for you to try - forget the flour and the egg and milk, just dredge them in cornmeal. I think you get just as crispy outside, and I think they taste much better. Try it and see what you think. I just take a 2 gal food storage bag, put the corn meal with salt and pepper in that, then toss the slices of tomato in one or two or three, even, at a time, seal the bag, shake it up and then take the slices out. From then on, I do it just like you do.
My tomatoes in my garden are ready..so glad I found your recipe!
Thank you for watching. God bless you!
Thank you for such a lovely video. I make these as well, but serve them over cream cheese grits with a honey chipotle mayo sauce on top. The sweet and spicy sauce really goes well with fried green tomatoes. Keep making your great videos.
You’re amazing
Bless your Heart
I don’t know what I would do without you
Hello,Becky,I had just found your videos and then I couldn't find you.So glad your back.I am your Scottish viewer.My only problem is I don't think I've ever heard of green tomatoes here but I shall investigate,.greetings from Scotland.
They were pretty much exclusive to the southern United States until a movie called "Fried Green Tomatoes" made them famous. If you have never seen the movie, it is worth watching and fried green tomatoes are defiantly worth trying. I can't believe people in Scotland are watching me cook :)) Welcome to the Hillbilly kitchen!
They're just unripe tomatoes.
Since I lived in the South for two and a half years, I ate many fried green tomatoes. Delicious!
I love fried green tomatoes and also love the movie that came out Fried Green Tomatoes I cannot find Green Tomatoes where I live I haven't seen any in years but those look delicious yummy
Thank you for recommending three forks! You are so right...my one fork always ends up in a glob! haha! Thank you!
This is the Best Recipe for Fried Green Tomatoes. I used to own a Restaurant & we served these & were the Biggest seller. We did the whole process as u do & then we put them on a wax paper covered cookie sheet & froze them. So they were always ready to fry as ordered. Turned out Perfectly Every Time.
So glad you're back...you've been missed! I love fried green tomatoes and yours look wonderful. TFS!! Linda
Thank you :) It is good to be back!
Too much talking...
I love her talking she is very sweet
Fried Green Tomatoes and Morals Mushrooms fried,,,,Some Tender Polk fried, man oh man , that's a Meal👍
Love these and fried silver queen corn and hot water cornbread. Enjoyed! Love from the piedmont.
Thank you :) Sounds like a perfect meal. Can't wait till the corn starts coming in ...
