“Catfish is so good. We like to take a whole small filet and grill it on our George Forman grill when it is just the two of us at home. We have done this on our regular grill as well but on a night that we just don't want to go to all the hustle and bustle we will pull out the old George Forman because it's quick, easy and have a delicious dinner for two in minutes!” - upthecountryjan

I had some fresh catfish in the freezer and gave this one a try right away last night. It’s not overpowering with a very nice blend. I am also going to try it with some gator and see how that works out!” - cyrene
