My dad uses the little "rat pill" shaped ones. McKenzie I think makes them. GTT

"Rat Pill" shaped ones???

Yeah, they look like big rat turds. Well, maybe more football shaped. Anyway, we always call them rat pills. GTT

i make mine from scratch sometimes using 2/3 corn meal-1/3 flower/2 eggs/salt/pepper/plenty of chopped oninons/diced jalapenos/and BEER> alsoi Marth White hush puppy mix in the foil packet at wally world $1.08 is pretty fool proof. i just add the beer/egg and plenty of onion and some jalapenos.

The only liquid that I will ever put in my hushpuppies will be cream style corn. It makes them delicious.

add a bash of baking powder makes even lighter

I have some of that Autry and will give your idea a shot. Tried some "Sweet Betsy" made by Atkinson Milling Co in Selma, NC an ended up buying a 5 pound bag. Very good mix. It can be doctored like the home brew add-ins.

I made DD's recipe on Sunday and added a can of cream corn to it instead of liquid, first time I had made any kind of Hush puppies as far as I can remember and everyone loved them
