Never tried gar balls with gravy >>>> we use to eat redfish or sheephead with a red gravy and rice , they called that cou'vee'a ( I can spell it ) , around St Joseph Day was always the time for that dish My grandpa use to tie the gar up to the clothes drying line he had in his yard and use a machete to get the skin off , then he would grind the meat thru a hand turned meat grinder --- * he use to always say never eat the eggs ( caviar ) out a gar , said it was poisonous to humans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My granny would have an out more fit if anyone messed with her iron ....that old skillet i have (that was hers) makes the best corn bread... So good I'd put it against any other made..... For years on thanksgiving all the cornbread made to complete the dressing was made in the one skillet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeepwm69 7,627 Posted December 29, 2022 I've been laid up with what I think was the flu for a couple of days. Luckily didn't hit till the day after Christmas. I thought I just had a bit of the "wine flu" but I didn't drink enough for that, and sure enough, had fever when I finally checked it Monday afternoon. But anyhow, I deep fried my first turkey on Christmas Day, and I gotta say it was dang good. Not sure how much sense it makes to spend $80 on peanut oil to fry a turkey, but it was good. Hopefully I can get some more use out of that oil before it goes rancid. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishfiles 20,145 Posted December 31, 2022 I agree , it is a wasted money , frying a turkey >>>>> to me I like fried turkey before it gets cold , you can throw it away after it was in the ice box , doesn't make good leftovers , greasy taste --- there are places down here that will fry turkeys for you , even Popeye's Famous Fried Chicken take orders 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goober 1,555 Posted December 31, 2022 made some venison polish sausage Party Polish!! LEM Backwoods seasoning and 20% pork fat. Leetle dry. Next time Ima use 25-30% beef fat. I’ve had COVID for at least a couple weeks now. Ruined Christmas, ruining New Years. but got my appetite, taste, smell. Just sniffing and sneezing. Guess i have to wait till I’m better to broil another. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
