    Default Crappie cookin! What's your favorite way?


    What's your favorite way to cook and eat'em? I've had them with Louisiana Bread crumbs and last night we did a beer batter and had them in Tacos. I'm sure this will be odd to some of you, but growing up in SoCal we would venture down to Ensenada in Baja CA. The street vendors sold fish tacos from the catch of the day. They were awesome and it was awesome to share a recipe we had from back in 1982 with my sons. They gobbled the tacos up like no tomorrow! "When can we go back out for more crappie? Maybe we can make this a weekly event until school starts back up?" <--- I LOVE IT! 18 & 15 years old.

    Beer batter from our old recipe - which I'm sure if you search the internet, you can find one that makes your mouth water

    Corn tortillas warmed up on the griddle, slaw mix to make it easy, red onions and a sauce my mom gave me the recipe for. Nothing pretty, but your mouth doesn't care how it looks does it now?

    I will share the recipe once I get it into a word document to copy and paste.

    I like Louisiana no wet batter - very dry just par in Louisiana and fry quick

    Makes it crispy

    Also the Parmesan baked recipe is pretty good

    I just made this tonight and it turned out really good, actually. Nice change of pace. Normally, I vacuum seal my crappie and label with quantity, species, date, lake, name, Conservation number, sometimes little positive notes of encouragement or inspirational quotes, pictures....you know.

    Anyway, this was a friggin' unlabeled ziploc bag from who knows where and God knows when. Had to get rid of that evidence 'fore the warden showed up and started in with questions!
