Thread: spicy crappie coatings?

Tony's creole works for me!

One box Mcormick fish fry mix mixed with one box Mcormack cajun breading. Find both at Krogar.

tiger sauce is pretty good. i have soaked fillets in catalina dresing too for a sweet twist. i really like to merinate my deer steaks in it too! poke steaks with a fork and toss in a ziploc for the next nights feast. fry steaks in some bacon grease hot fast and rare.

Where you find that Rooster sauce?

i soak my fish in texas pete hot sauce and a little milk for a couple hours, then when i get the corn meal out i add cayenne pepper to it. everbody likes it even my 3 year old grandaugther.

Louisiana Fish Fry and Cajun Fryer are a good match

I've tried the coating the fish with hot sauce before frying and it's good, but I prefer my fish not to have the slight taste of vinegar it gives.

For frying, I mix my own. For every 1/3 cup of cornmeal add 1 tsp. each of lemon pepper, cajun seasoning of your choice, cayenne powder, and 1/4 tsp. salt (lots of salt in lemon pepper and cajun seasoning already). Adjust amount of cayenne to your taste.

When I fry fish for I use:
1-1/3 cup cornmeal
4 tsp lemon pepper
4 tsp cajun seasoning (I like Slap Ya Mama or Getcha Sum)
4 tsp cayenne powder
1 tsp salt

Uncle bucks hot and spicey for me
