That's how I had one at the Cajun joint we had. Whole filet. It was awesome!

That looks pretty good. Remoulade sauce is a no go with the mayo for my wife.

Kicked up mayo.

It’s the sauce you put on a po boy. Kind of spicy, kind of like an aioli.

Maybe I’ll bring some catfish to the great Wisconsin turkey trample.

Took the kids to culvers today and had the walleye sandwich 3/10. Wouldn't recommend. Catfish is a tough one.
Never had a good catfish fry up here. Had some smoked in your neck of the woods that was good. Get down south and they know how to do it right! I'd really like to know what the difference is. Im guessing it's in the prep.

I don’t eat fish at a restaurant that I can catch myself. Obviously I’m biased, but I’ve never had it as good from a restaurant as I can fry at home.

Gotta start with good, clean fish. I’ve had good luck with the farm raised stuff they sell at Smith’s / Kroger.

Best freshwater fish I ever had was blue cat from Santee-Cooper, was like eating soft chicken tenderloins. Something magic about that water

It helps to use "House Autry" brand of fish breading. Made in Eastern NC but not sure if it's available in your area. I'm sure there are others and a dozen or more who are convinced their favorite is superior. Fish caught in the blackwater coastal plain streams and lakes of the Southeast are the tastiest in my opinion.

 

[Bigjay73]

You are a damn tar heel. Haven't heard the name House of Autry in a long time, that brand is gooooood

It's not OK to tempt folks with something they can't get

Seriously that looks wonderful.

I usually make a remoulade but went with some Blue Plate mayo on this on.
I shredded up some cabbage instead of lettuce. I like a crispy poboy so I cut up my fillets (2 on this one)so I could get more crisp. It made it a bit harder to eat than just a whole fillet. I managed.

 

[Boarmaster]

No idea wth that is lol.

Lots of variations. But mayo, mustard, ketchup, horseradish , lemon juice, hot sauce….
The list can go on forever. I make a simple one with mustard , mayo, ketchup and hot sauce.

You need to start with good catfish. Many people have never had good catfish and that is a shame.

I will if its a specialty of the place or region. I don't go to a fast food place and expect to get great fish.
