Hushpuppies, cheese grits and slaw is on the bar...all we need are the FISH!

Enjoy.

Shouldn't you have saved this bar for next week when you could have supplied the fish too?

I'll take a pile of hushpuppies and try some grits and a 'garden' bloody mary to start the day, please.

Here's to three day weekends!

if everything is on the bar, it sounds like we need plates and bowls or some type of serving containers, plus the fish

Probably...but I was thirsty NOW!

Here's a garden mary for the both of us.

Why you slackin', Happy! Bring on the cajun catfish.

::walzes back in with grilled blackened flounder::

Get it while it's hot!

cajun catfish is for tourists...in fact, anything with the moniker "cajun" is geared toward tourists...

here is some blackened redfish...

Here are two of my favorites (Grouper and Sword Fish) enjoy.

Pass the Hush puppies, I 'll just have a coke please.

here are some boudin balls, beats a hushpuppy every time

I could really go for some catfish and hush puppies. Think I'll keep it simple with a SoCo and Dr. Pepper.

::Keepin' it klassy in OK::

Next time I'm heading down to NOLA, will you point me to the best boudin balls, Happy? I've never had one but this is the second or third time you've referred to them as better than hushpuppies so I've got to get me some!

I do know there's blackened and then there's blackened. As was explained to me, each chef makes their mix differently. I'll take a piece of both the redfish and the flounder to see which is my kind of blackened.

tgiff!

Examiners are gone after two weeks of hounding me. I'm popping bottles of champagne for some champagne showers!!

I would like some whiskey to drink though.

I'll donate some walleye I have in the freezer (caught this summer) if I can get one of those garden Mary's!

walleye! Now we're getting to my kind of fish!
Joker, Sarah's next garden mary is on me!

I've got Canadian crappie, walleye, and maybe even a few trout left from this past summer. I'd be willing to share!

And if I get some of the pike out and pickle it, who wants in??

o.m.g. It's been sssssooooo long since I've had good northern waters fish! I know how to pan fry that trout till the skin is perfectly crispy. Never tried pickled pike but I'll try anything once.

I'm planning on concentrating on crappie tomorrow. I've never had walleye...guess that's just a Northern fish.

I'll have some, Matt! So long as it's not that weird, scary lutefisk stuff!!!

Oh...and here is some perfectly fileted mudfish. It's surprisingly good....and some fried gar and gator tail. For the adventurous sorts.

I love perch, salmon and walleye. Send some my way!

I'll take some gator tail and a beer Leinie, please. The hubby took a consulting gig this weekend so it's just the boy and I at the house, and I'm ready to get the weekend started!

Temp crown is in, just a 2 week wait till they put in the permanent.
Dos mojitos to hold me over please.

::brings in cedar plank salmon::

enjoy

Thank you kindly!!!! Yum!

If you like pickled herring, or any other type of fish, you'll like it. It's one of the best ways for a lazy person to consume pike. You don't have to deal with picking out all the dang y-bones, the pickling just dissolves it all. It's perfect!

And Joker, it's one of the best fresh-water fish, in my opinion. The absolute best is when you pull in ones that are big enough that you can eat the cheek meat. Sounds weird, but it's the best bit.
