1. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse Cheez-It® Crackers until they are finely ground, 20-30 pulses.
2. Mix flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. In a second shallow bowl, whisk eggs. In a third shallow bowl, add pulsed crackers.
3. One stick at a time, dredge through flour mixture, tapping off any excess, then dredge through eggs, then finally toss in Cheez-It® crumbs, ensuring the stick is completely enclosed. Transfer to a sheet pan or plate.
4. Heat 2 inches of oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven to 350F. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, gently lower sticks into hot oil using a spider. Let cook until Cheez-It® crumbs are lightly golden brown, 2 minutes. Remove with a spider and transfer to a paper-towel-lined sheet.
