Method

Shrimp Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, whisk together eggs and buttermilk until well combined.

  2. 2

    Coat the Shrimp

    Dip each shrimp into the egg and buttermilk mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating.

Frying the Shrimp

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 4

    Fry the Shrimp

    Fry the coated shrimp in batches for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Making Duff's Sauce

  1. 5

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the hot sauce, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and honey. Stir until well combined and heated through.

  2. 6

    Toss the Shrimp

    If desired, toss the fried shrimp in Duff's sauce until well coated. Alternatively, serve the sauce on the side.

Cooking French Fries

  1. 7

    Cook the Fries

    Prepare the frozen French fries according to the package instructions, either by baking or frying until golden and crispy.
