    Babyray,
    Scott's Blackened Redfish Chunks[p]Ingredients
    1, legal 26 15/16" redfish, caught on a topwater plug at dawn.
    butter
    tabasco
    italian bread crumbs
    blackened redfish seasoning
    cast iron skillet[p]Ok, you can catch your fish on live bait, but it wont taste as good. Filet and skin the red. Cut the filets into 1" chunks. Roll the chunks into a bowl of melted butter and *3 drops tobasco to cover. Next mix a batch of **2/3 bread crumbs and 1/3 blackening seasoning. Roll the buttered chunks in this mixture until all sides are covered. [p]Now, get your cast iron skillet smokin' hot (I mean hot) and drop in enough chunks so that you have room to work with them. Try to blacken as many sides of the chunks as you can. Cooking time for each batch should be appx. 10 minutes if your skillet is hot enough. The result should be crispy spicy chunks and happy campers.[p]*adjust to taste or use the milder Louisiana hot sauce
    **adjust the ratio to taste[p]

    Babyray,
    Ditto on Borders recipe. You can vary it with a few thnigs...[p]roll filets or chunks in melted butter and sprinkle heavily with your favorite rub (try Raging River)[p]make sure the cast iron skillet is really, really, really hot. It will smoke very heavily which means DO NOT prepare this indoors.[p]Banker John

    Babyray,
    Again, Borders is right on it. Just don't do what I did and get confused and toss the stick of butter into the raging hot cast iron skillet!!!! That was intense.
    I knew butter was somewhere in that recipe......

    WooDoggies, I bet it would be fantastic with your coffee. Some grits on the side. Killer.
