    I was raised to never eat Gar or Buffalo growing up...My dad considered them a "trash fish". 40 years later and I am finding out how wrong my ole' pops was! As it is with anything out of the ordinary (alligator for example) it's all about the Recipe and Preperation. Thanks Kracker for another awesome vid and recipe that is both FIRE and MONEY! 🔥💲👍

      I've tasted gar before, it tasted like fish to me! I know the buffalo fish is delicious, just too many bones! Don't see much gar or buffalo in the fish markets these days in CA. I really miss the good fish they use to have bck n the day!!!

      I was raised like you, but not sure if I folks were wrong are not. I think crappie, bream , bass and catfish are better. But never ate a gar. If that's all I could get my hands on the lets eat .
