Secret Recipes, post yours here (for Vlap)

[vlap]

I have a hard time finding a "secret" recipe since I do not really believe in secret recipes.

This recipe was shared with me recently. It is for grilled redfish. (id you see misspellings please forgive the jd and wine I have had tonight)

Redfish on the grill...

First you need to get a red to fillet... Fun work btw. A top o the slot red can feed 6 - 8 people. A lower slot fed 4 easily today,

First take two fillets and season them with everglades seasoning or tony chatures creole seasoning. Then layer with thin sliced tomato and onion. Add a little olive oil and slide onto hot grill.


Add a good salad and some good roasted vegies.

Mmmm, looks awesome Vlap, and I'm not even awake yet.

I will definately give this a try, Thank you!

Those red's are GREAT fun to catch, but buggers to fillet. Best tool for the job I've found is a good old fashioned electric carving knife.

Looks Great Vlap

Never had a "red". What kind of fish is it exactly. Looks great plated!

Ocean Spray has one similar to yours lisa except you use jellied cranberry sauce instead of jelly and cumin and cayenne instead of horseradish. I tried it this year pretty good not to sweet. Will have to try your recipe for super bowl

Shell, a red is aka redfish or red drum. Strong fighting fish that just won't give up. Tons of fun to catch!

An electric knife is definitely a great way to fillet a red. One of these days I might buy one.

 

[lisacsco]

now that sounds like a good combination!

When I lived in North Carolina (Topsail Island) we used to fish for "puppy" drum. I only ever caught one but it was fun! Up here we go drum fishing but these fish are huge. Had a fish on one time, but on it's second dive it came across our one prop and cut the line.

They get really big though, usually around like 75 lbs. State record in Jersey is 105 pounder.

Hey Lisa,
here's one that my wife makes every Christmas Eve,

2 to 3 pounds Hot Italian Sausage
2 packages of little smokies
16 to 20 onces of Sweet and Sour Sauce (red kind)

Cut up sausage into 1 inch pieces and brown in sauce pan for 5 minutes
when done browning place sausage in crock pot with the 2 packages of little smokies
Add the Sweet and Sour Sauce and cook on low for about 3 to 4 hours.
Serve on long rolls.

Shell... That is an impressive black drum. We get them here but more in the 40lb size.

The red I caught for the dinner I showed...

Have a bottle of Taylor Fladgate and a Noval at home. Both Late Bottled Vintage. Good stuff for port. Never got into merlot. Big Cabs, Zins, Barolos, etc... My friends give me heck since I don't like white wine. They say I can't have red with fish. I tell 'em I never really liked fish that much.

Interesteing, beatiful fish. Is that also referred to as a spot tailed bass? I catch something that looks identical off the coast of SC and that's what I've always called them.

 

[vlap]

It could be. I have heard them called channel bass... They are definitely in that area as well...

 

[shellbellc]

Well Vlap, with that spot, I'm thinking that is what the old timers called puppy drum off the NC coast. Good eating! Up here a lot of restaurants make drum parmigiana out of the black drum. I hear they use a hoe to scale them! That is a pretty looking fish!
