I fried up some today - outstanding. I would like to use them for an appetizer at some friends house tomorrow, but need a good dipping sauce. Any ideas?

I love FGT's.
Normally I eat them without sauce, but once I got crazy and tried dipping them in some leftover Guthries sauce and it was pretty good. If you know how to make something close to Guthries sauce I would recommend trying that.

1000 Island dressing is actually pretty good with them. One of the first restaurants I cooked in, we made a Memphis dressing with Feta Cheese that was AMAZING with Fried Greens....I'll try to find the recipe for you. I know it is a mayo based sauce and has a little cayenne and capers in it...but the feta cheese just set it off when paired with the tomatoes.
I would like to try that Memphis Dressing and you are right thousand island dressing is pretty good on fried green tomatoes. I like thousand island dressing as a dipping sauce for fried chicken tenders and as a marinade for lamb. My cucumber aoli is also very good on baked or grilled fish.
You know how you feel about blackeyed peas and garbanzo beans? I have that mutual feeling for cucumbers lol
OK found it...its good to keep all recipes I can't remember them all of the top of my head lol...just takes a little digging.... (I even found the menu picture on my jump drive, haha)
This is AMAZING, trust me
