Blackened Catfish With Crab Claw Cream Sauce

[tx smoker]

Whoa Jake!! Definitely seen you turn out some fantastic looking stuff but this just jumps out at me. Love...and I mean LOVE blackened catfish and what you've done here looks perfect and simply amazing. I only have one question: why is this not on the carousel? That plated pic is as gorgeous as you could ever ask for.

Simply awed,
Robert

Boy howdy Jake, that's as fine a looking plate of fish as I've ever seen, big Like! I'm thinking that crab claw cream sauce really pushed that meal over the top, beautiful piece of work, bookmarked to copy! RAY

Great looking meal Jake, one of these years I'm going to have to try blackened catfish

We had another trip planned for either Tuesday or Wednesday, but that is cancelled now with two hurricanes barreling towards Louisiana to make landfall on those days.... Might be good days for making more salami indoors...
Will be cleaning the yard and securing everything tied down tomorrow....

Stay safe bud. They say those 2 storms have the potential to get nasty

Well done. Awesome man

Appreciate it BB!

Nice looking plate! Great idea adding the sauce, Kudos to the Mrs. I have to look into this Flatiron Pepper Company...JJ

Thanks JJ my original plan for the sauce was crawfish tails but forgot to thaw them. Flatiron has a bunch of stuff you'd love. Pretty reasonable prices as well

Thanks Mike. This would be good on a taco

Thanks Robert I appreciate the kind words. Definitely one of my better cooks. Wanted to use crawfish tails for the sauce but forgot to thaw.

Thanks Jim. You gotta try some bud it's delicious and full of flavor

Thanks Joe. Was tasty as heck. Those pepper flakes are amazing. I'll be getting more variety from flatiron

I always get the 3 pack. The dark and smoky, great for chili. The green hatch variety, that’s my daily driver. The red 4 pepper blend...great on pizza and Italian dishes. About $20 for the 3, lasts me all year. A friend from Denver turned me on to them a few years ago.

Hell Yeah!
Good gosh Jake, does that all look so dagblasted delicious.
That fish and sauce looks so decadent, I bet it was like manna from Heaven.

Thanks bear. I've seen you post up some catfish so I figured you'd like these. My favorite fish as well. Thanks for the like

Damn Jake that looks really good! I would be all over that. Been craving catfish for a couple weeks now and this one just did me in. Never done it on the flat top so that should be on tap for sure. Nice cook and love that crab cream sauce!
