3/4 c. flour
2 tsp. red pepper
2 tsp. paprika
2 tsp. black pepper
2 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. salt
3 dashes hot sauce
1 c. beer
Cheese (amount needed for amount of people to serve - use hard cheese such as
Cheddar or Swiss)

Dice or cut cheese into sticks. Combine dry ingredients; add hot sauce and beer, mixing well. Use as batter for cheese, dip cheese cubes or stick in batter. Coat thoroughly. Place coated cheese in large skillet with hot oil. Fry only until brown. If fried too long, cheese melts.
