Fish Fattie

[dools103]

Have not done a Fattie yet but wanted to do something different because I have a friend that does not eat red meat, was thinking of chicken and seeing that some prefer to use breasts as opposed to ground but then was actually tossing around the idea of using Tilapia or Flounder like a chicken breast and filling with say a crabmeat/cream cheese and such mixture, bacon wrap and smoking that, any ideas and or recipes would be appreciated

I know pork is the other white meat, but does your friend eat bacon?

Sounds interesting...like a stuffed flounder dish.

Nice idea, keep us posted on how it goes.  I haven't tried a fish fatty but I have made cajun fish sausage and that worked great. Maybe a ground fish sausage wrapped in something like corn husks or sliced eggplant would work.
