What's for dinner tonight?

Recommended Posts

The trick to the collars is to cook the heck out of them at a higher heat than normal  due to the cartilage from the fins. The one from this fish was at 400 for 45 minutes and it fell apart.  A little Johnnie’s seasoning on the meat side before grilling , peel the skin , and stand back!  Pure boneless meat.

The boy decided he wanted smoked trout this weekend so we went to the lake. Friday was pretty slow with no keepers but Sunday they turned on good. It was his first time throwing spinners and now he is hooked. My wife did a brown sugar and honey brine that turned out amazing!

Griddle fried grouper rib rack, came off an 85 lb er. It was fantastic !  Never  would have thought of it, but the local fish cleaner suggested it. Between the ribs and the collars, I think we’d been leaving the best parts of our big fish behind for years. Started keeping the collars two years ago , and love them.
