Fresh Caught Fish Sandwich!

Fresh Caught Fish Sandwich!

We grew up on a farm in Mississippi, so hunting and fishing were just a way of life.  So any chance I get to go visit my mom, I take it!  One of our favorite things to do is go to the lake, set out fishing poles and catch a mess of fish to clean and eat!  So this is exactly what this recipe is all about!  We caught a bunch of catfish and a fish sandwich was definitely on the menu!  So stick around and I'll walk you through how we made it!

There is something about fresh caught fish that just hits different!  I guess it's the fact that you actually catch them yourself, clean em and cook em up!  I mean fresh fried catfish is always a winner, but sometimes you want a little something different!  So for this one, we decided to blacken the catfish, make a homemade tartar sauce and toast up a brioche bun to put it on!  Talk about some fine eating!  Make you wanna slap yo mama!  Sorry Mom, but check this out and you'll understand what I mean!
