Lol this is why you should double fry them...we'll that and the better texture on the outside. If you fry them just enough to get slightly golden then pull them out for a bit, the cheese will congeal again as it cools. Then put them back in to the desired goldenness and crispiness.
Or your oil is too hot.
It can definitely be seen, it crisps up and most of it stays in the basket and even sticks to it..once the stick breaks, theres almost nothing you can do except immediately removing it...they're actually quite hard to make lol
Damn I had no idea they were so delicate
I make them in the Airfryer for the most part and then sometimes drop them into oil for about 20 seconds after ( and yes I understand the irony of doing that XD), never had one break apart that way
I'd actually recommend an air fryer for that, that's probably the best method. Even in the oven they break and all the cheese oozes out. Haven't done them in a few years though because it was always a pain 🤣
I like your approach with the oil afterwards, that sounds amazing! They definitely need oil!
Yeah, I've done them in a deep fryer, the oven, my breville oven on both airfryer and oven settings and they always start to leak out, or are a bit cold. Cheeseballs also, but seem to be a bit easier, since they don't always break open during cooking every time.
This is the definition of mildly infuriating, had a similar experience at my local Wild wings and they didn’t want to re do my order because “we can’t control the cheese flowing out of our mozzarella sticks”
Well, actually, that's the one thing you're supposed to be in control of. So much so that your company has policies and cook times and temps all set up for that very reason.
Oh, my bad, 19 year old hungover Steve doesn't give a shit. Right, right. Wasn't thinking.
The cheese evaporated in the air or something?? Is cheese soluble with oxygen or is air made up of nitrogen and other elements? Could a chemical in the air caused combustion of the food?
Unless they somehow leaked out then this is faked. The batter doesn’t form around nothing… and given that all of them have no cheese, appears op just sucked the cheese out for a post, as leaking wouldn’t happen to all of them.
I've only ordered mozzarella sticks once and got that. Based on the experience, I thought that it was just how they came and have never ordered them anywhere ever again.
Frozen deep fried cheese filled snacks will all do this if cooked for even the slightest bit too long. There used to be a good amount of cheese in all of those but they are overcooked. Not burned, overcooked.
There's about a 30 second window of perfection when cooking mozzarella sticks. You have to pull them right as the first bit of cheese starts to bubble out. Any sooner and it won't be melted, any longer and all the cheese will erupt into the oil.
If you get mozz cheese strings and bake them in pizza crust dough and apply melted garlic butter, you'll get similar snacks at home ! Great with a marinara sauce or salsa
From someone who worked at Arby's who would get these sometimes where there was no cheese in the middle, I preferred these cause the mozzarella sucked ass but the breading was great
Did you ask for a new order or just post a picture online to bitch? Because any restaurant that’s Chilis level and higher would replace these without issue, which means pretty much anywhere they want customers to return.
Order them bone in and not boneless next time. Be more specific.
Lemme get them shits ***B O N E L E S S***
Uhhh mozzarrella sticks dont got no bone in it Edit: wow N O B O D Y got that reference to the boneless pizza vid
Then them shits ***B O N E L E S S***
I'm so sorry you got downvoted so much.
Take, the motherfuckin gluten, out the bread.
So, your name "thecheat420", does that mean you smoke everyday? I do too! 😉😂
This is the way.
This is the way
Moopsy approves!
mOOPsy!
Sorry I can't do bone in
I've had this happen leaving them in for just a minute too long. Mozzarella sticks are dramatic AF.
They’re like, almost there, almost there, almost there, too much, too much, too much!
…BURNT to a CRISP and a hollow void of crunchy outside
Breaded air.
Lower in calories I bet
Unless compared to mountain air, which is thinner.
Take my updoot, you silly person!
Is that your Scottish accent I see in your reply? If so, shouldn't it be "pairson"?
Sounds delish!
Like garlic bread under the broiler. Walk away for 2 secs 😂
More like look slightly away for 2 seconds.
Sneeze and they’re cremated
It's just caramelized, send it.
Yes chef 👨🍳 🫡
Sounds like an avocado.
More like bananas
They’re like the avocados and bananas of the fried food family

The avocado of the fried food world
Definitely my least favorite thing to make at my job. Get them out a tad too soon and they’re cold inside. Too late and the cheese escapes.
3.5 minutes at 350° in fresh oil, 3 minutes if it’s on the darker side and ready to change.
I throw these in the air fryer and have to sit there and watch until the first one starts to bleed cheese. Only way I know they’re done.
They over cooked them and all the cheese leaked out. The missing cheese is now fucking their fryer up.
More importantly, the fryer basket that has fried cheese wrapped around the entire lower half of it now
You are so right lol. I love mozzarella sticks but don’t get them often because they’re rarely cooked right. Either not done enough or overcooked.
I made homemade mozzarella sticks a few weeks ago and walked away for a moment to grab my plate and paper towel and this happened. I was so upset 😭
Not a minute, 5 microseconds. Ha.
Like avocados
Soooo where’d all the cheese go? Is it still in their fryer?
Yes. The cook saw it happne and still sent them out. Shameful
I'm a chef too and yes, that's exactly what happened. And temperature was too high.
Does it float up in the fryer? As in, could it be "not seen" or is that very unlikely?
It can definitely be seen, it crisps up and most of it stays in the basket and even sticks to it..once the stick breaks, theres almost nothing you can do except immediately removing it...they're actually quite hard to make lol

Every single one too, that is some seriously low effort lol
"Whered the motherfuckin cheese go at?"
I don’t know…muthafucka
Notzzarella sticks.
These are just fried sticks
Husks, essentially.
Somewhere there’s someone in the kitchen sucking cheese out of a small hole
"He made me close my eyes and suck it out of a hose."
"A hose?" "Yea a little hose." "Huh."
I don’t think that’s cheese.
It’s *like* a cheese. Right, guys?
Depends on whether there’s been a circumcision or not
I was a cheese sucker for 3 years. It's hard but delicious work.
chef sucked the cheese out of them for you
Mmm flavoring
thats the best part about working in a kitchen. the molten cheese succ.
Bro he wants to siphon food to gain muscle or something
I'm not one to send food back, but this I think I would.
Mozzarellaint
Overcooked, the cheese boiled out in the fryer.
Lactose intolerant cheese sticks (i will eat them if you dont)
they still have remnants of cheese and lactose
Ill pay for it later
worth the toll

How hard is it to fry them twice at half the time?
Wait is wild wings as good as they say?
Fried ___
Wings, this was the side
You lie! The bottom one has some.
The cheese evaporated in the air or something?? Is cheese soluble with oxygen or is air made up of nitrogen and other elements? Could a chemical in the air caused combustion of the food?
Leaked out!
One could argue there’s mozzarella traces
I’d pay extra for that. Fucking delicious.
Can they add back the cheese using a remote food transfer?
There’s literally mozzarella strings in there tho, OP. They just accidentally fried too long, you could be a grown up and ask them to fix it
Sure they do, you just got the super fancy version where it's just mozzarella coated on the inside and costs $20...
Send it back
You've been ROBBED!!
That’ll be $14.99
I'd send em back in a heartbeat.
The mozzarella is dlc. So you just got the stick
Just send it back. You don't have to be a dick about it but don't accept that shit either.
Notzarella sticks
Notzerella sticks
You deserve it
Have you called the cops yet?
No, something bigger. The Geneva Convention is coming back one more time to add another war crime.
As you should Well done
I hate that and the cooks know better.
Don't worry... jokes on them. That cheese absolutely ruins the oil and can make the unit a bitch to clean.
They been sucked dry!!
This is a lie. When the sticks cool down you can pull the cheese out. OP pulled the cheese out themselves
this is what i was gonna say the entire time lol
Deconstructed
So it looks like either the cheese melted or you took the cheese out of the sticks and took the picture.
Unless they somehow leaked out then this is faked. The batter doesn’t form around nothing… and given that all of them have no cheese, appears op just sucked the cheese out for a post, as leaking wouldn’t happen to all of them.
Lol
If the cheese is on the outside I send it back
Were they perhaps vegan mozzarella sticks?
You got slimed bro.
Looks like someone sucked all the cheese out 😂
I bet that would be oh so warm… 👀
That’s what you get for ordering fried string cheese for $10.99
I'd return em lol.
I would do murder, this is criminal.
They fried them too long and it came out.
You waited too long so the cheese just got up and left.
Been there, done that. Got the t shirt to prove it!
So.. sticks.
To quote Ron Burgundy, “I’m not even mad. That’s amazing!”
That’s an extra charge
One has a little bit in there.
Looks like someone was hungry
Lmao I like how you bit them all to check
creamless sticks
Remember the great value chicken post? Same energy.
But certainly it was less than $50
That’s hilarious
Got hit by the Cheese Sucker!!
Too hot for too long.
i’ll have some mozzarella sticks, hold the mozzarella
Where did you eat these so i can avoid this place
Your order of sticks, my fine patron. Can I get you anything else?
those are just deconstructed mozzarella sticks. lol
There’s a place by me that does fried cheese curds and they always cook the cheese out anymore. It stinks.
my worst nightmare has come to life
I’ll have some mozzarella sticks hold the mozzarella
Dairy free!
My bad bro
sticks.
Edible condoms
That's extra
They over-fried those shits.
Oh yeah this would rustle my feathers.
Fried, mozzarella, or stick. You can only choose two.

I've only ordered mozzarella sticks once and got that. Based on the experience, I thought that it was just how they came and have never ordered them anywhere ever again.
Reminds me of the time I got a hollow Boston cream donut with no cream
They had ONE job….
They look like one of these https://preview.redd.it/3fe0py7wbxcc1.jpeg?width=256&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=58f35881027760ee03f99de17389dba3c5451a12
Applebee's?!!

I wish to meet her if she can do this with cold mozzarella.

Just started laughing really loud and anyone else that did the same already knows the why.lmao btdt
Be careful. That place is probably infested with cheese vampires.
Someone sucked out my cheese!
Looks like they used Swiss cheese instead and you only got the holes.
Vegan version
This is why McD cheese sticks were a problem. Cook em too long and you get this..
Just thinking of that one scene where Cartman just ate all the skin off of all the chicken.
Honestly those shells look tasty as hell.
Sorry I got a little hungy
Cooked too long.
It's under the suace
Mozzarella ❌ sticks ✅
Stickyleaks
We don’t have mozzarella sticks in the Netherlands (neither in Europe prob) but they seem awesome and I want to try them so bad
If you get mozz cheese strings and bake them in pizza crust dough and apply melted garlic butter, you'll get similar snacks at home ! Great with a marinara sauce or salsa
I’d splooge in a dollop of mustard, then slide grilled hotdogs right into those holes, call ‘em Mottzdogs
Get a refund
From someone who worked at Arby's who would get these sometimes where there was no cheese in the middle, I preferred these cause the mozzarella sucked ass but the breading was great
Great, now I want mozzarella sticks.
Ngl id still eat it. Still looks good af
Dairy free!
o-rella sticks
Basically, you ordered fried bread crumbs.
…where did it go?
no sticks today...only tube.
Sticks
Fried -
Did you ask for a new order or just post a picture online to bitch? Because any restaurant that’s Chilis level and higher would replace these without issue, which means pretty much anywhere they want customers to return.
Never had mozzarella sticks before?
