    DANG those were some pretty catfish fillets! Pink and THICK!😊
    I grew up in the South, and these reminded me of the fish dinners we'd get at 'fish camps' (small country seafood restaurants) on Sundays after church.
    You get your "Sunday dinner plate" = your fish, your shrimp, your hush puppies or cornbread, and your big spoon of collard or turnip greens!
    Mmmmmm mmmm! 😋
    (Maybe some banana pudding for dessert if you wuz extra good while the sermon went on 😉)
    Thank you so much for showing us how to make these. 🎉
    Wonderful memories.
    If you haven't tried catfish prepared this way, you're truly missing out, y'all. ❤

    AB, I love this. I fry my fish the same way and use Louisiana Red Dot Hot sauce. But when it comes to making tarter sauce, I add a bit of horseradish for some bite (to taste). If I'm out of horseradish, I'll put my hot sauce in it as a substitute. Give it a try and let us know what you think.

    Great to see you using corn meal. It is so much better than flour and is what we always used growing up when cooking horned pout and brook trout. Up here in NH we don't have much in the way of cat fish, a few channel cats and horned pout is all I have ever seen. However in my opinion, horned pout when not muddy tasting, is sweeter and almost always better than trout. Fresh fried fish with homemade bread, freshly made homemade butter and frozen raspberry jam was always a great way to start the day after a night of fishing. Glad to see you keeping it old school my friend !!

  • @shelakelley5692

    Love the video fam. I just made some fried catfish two days ago bro. I used Kinders blend seasoning in my cornmeal. Its a easy way for me to add all of the based seasonings I want without going overboard. I also drop a little paprika and chili power in there as well but I don't use buttermilk because of the lactose lol.
