Thanks Ross.

Tomorrow is focaccia bread. Just came in from roasting peppas and as soon as they cool I'll peel the skin off. Then tomorrow I'll push the peppas into the bread along with some onion, sundried tomatoes and Italian herbs. Oh boy, I hope this will be the one I like best.

Thanks. An easy cook made better by good old cast iron and the egg. Yes sir.

Clay...Please tell me its fresh water catfish... :blink: . And I plead ignorant, I didn't read the other posts. But one thing I can truly say, THAT looks AWESOME!!

Truly, well done! You got me hungry for some fried fish now.... :laugh:

Catfish looks great. Good job.

Clay Q · February 2010

Yes yes yes, this is cold spring water farm raised catfish. No bones about it.

Outstanding flavor, and fun to eat-no skin or bones or scales to deal with. This was on sale, $4.99 lb., looked very good displayed on shaved ice at the market so I bought 2 filet's. Glad I did. I try to eat fish at least once a week.

Thanks LC

Thanks Jerry. Just good ol' fresh catfish turned into golden chunks of goodness on the egg, mighty satisfying as all heck on a cold Friday evening.
Enjoy the weekend!

Thanks Dr. I'm getting my vitamin e and omega 3 going strong. :laugh:

Clay, that looks great, and that's coming from one of the largest catfish-producing states!

Look in your Wally World (or an Academy Sports) - I have recently seen great breading bowl ("Better Breader" I think). I have an older model and the ole paper bag can't beat this - like a Weber vs a BGE ! You put your meal in the lower half, a perforated grid in the middle and then add fish, chicken, whatever in the top half, close and invert several times. Perfect coating!

Wow!! That catfish looks soooo good!!

Looks like you cut the handle off the cast iron skillet? What did you use to cut it off? I need to go through my cast iron and see what I can come up with. I see catfish in my near future.
