Mix of 2 cups all purpose flour, 1 cup yellow cornmeal seasonedwith salt, a lot (2 tablespoons) of ground black pepper, salt to taste &smoked paprika.
The catfish is marinated in spices & buttermilk overnight andbreaded with flour & cornmeal breading. Deep fried to be GB&D (a professional culinary acronym that means‘Golden Brown and Delicious’) and served with eggs your way. I may have the eggs sunny side up or overeasy but it’s a 50/50 chance that I’ll have eggs scrambled with pimento cheese(homemade). Both served with Louisiana hot sauce or tabasco…I, now, prefer theBelizean habañero hot sauce.
* Take the catfish out of the marinade and shake off the excessmarinade and dredge the catfish in the corn meal/flour. Be sure to be pressingthe dredging mix into the fish. Shake off the excess flour/cornmeal and put ona plate and put in the fridge (this helps the crust set).
* If you want to scramble eggs version then scramble 3 eggs in 2tablespoons butter, season with salt & pepper then finish by folding in aheaping tablespoon of pimento cheese. Top with chives/green onions.
So I was talking to a friend about the Master’s Golf tournament inAugusta, Georgia. We cater a hospitalitytent there every year and have done so for the past decade. He knows that I grew up an hour away. He asked me what was some of my ‘not so common’favourite Southern dishes. I told him itwas my affinity for a fish version of ‘chicken fried steak & eggs’ like weserve in the Bistro but it was made with Southern fried catfish instead.

What are catfish eggs called?
Do catfish have live babies or lay eggs?
Spawning is what it is called when the female catfish lays her eggs. Typically, she will find a suitable nest before it is time to spawn. Then, she will lay her eggs. This brief process is called spawning. After approximately ten days, the eggs will hatch and baby catfish, which are called Fry, will be born.
How many eggs do catfish lay?
One catfish can lay several thousand eggs at a time. “A single flathead may lay from 2,500 to 100,000 eggs, while a blue catfish may lay from 2,000 to 25,000 catfish eggs,” said fisheries biologist Matt Miller. If you’re looking to stock up on catfish for the table, now is definitely the time!
Do catfish eat sweet corn?
You can also use sweet corn as regular food for the catfish instead of baiting them. This is the practice in commercial ponds; the corn is fed to catfish in large quantity to ensure the fish get enough to eat during the scramble for food.
