I was out in the Bay today and caught a bass. Wasn't really expecting to catch anything and didn't have anything at the house other than more potatoes and corn on the cob.

I filleted it sprinkled with fresh ground pepper, kosher salt, tarragon and garlic powder. No clue what I was doing and as it turns out used too much tarragon. Not bad, but I've had better.

What kind of bass is that and is your filet boneless? That looks like a perfect cut - but I have never had much luck making any fish I caught taste good... never tried though either... I hate picking around the bones.

Hey rucca, it appears to be a Spotted Sand Bass. I usually bread them and pan fry them, which turns out much better.

I did end up with 2 small bones at the end of one of the fillets, but otherwise I got all of the bones out. If you fillet down the spine you can avoid some of the bones, and there's also a portion by the stomach (not sure) that you hack off as well. Then I use tweezers to remove any bones I find by running my fingers over the fillet.

You could also cook it whole. That way you can gently remove/peel the cooked fish off of the bone.

That looks delicious billcollector. I love chicken enchilada's but never made them. I'm just cooking for one, but I suppose it's a dish where leftovers could be frozen in portions.
 
I made 3 trays, totaling 32 enchiladas. In the span of two days, they are gone :) But there are also 5 people in the house. It works great for beef ones too, I always cook the meat first in a pressure cooker. Those things are amazing.
 
Nice! that looks delicious - I've never been good at making enchiladas...then again I haven't given it many tries. Good stuff Bill

Holy hell, what a pain in the ass these wings ended up being. I bought wings at Albertsons on Thursday. I pulled them out of the fridge today, and they were already spoiled. Drove back to Albertsons and got my money back.

I have been having this problem with albertsons alot lately too, I bought some shrimp, like 3 pounds, and made a huge shrimp pesto dish with it, went to taste it and the shrip was bad, so i had like 8 people over for dinner with no main course, I took the whole pot with the spoiled shrimp dinner in it up to albertsons just to show them that it was bad, lol.

Barbicide Hot Wings

Steamed the wings for 25 minutes to remove excess fat. Brushed with honey...baked at 375 for 10 minutes. Flipped to broil for 6 minutes. Tossed in deep bowl with honey, bbq, hot sauce (ass kicking), cayenne pepper, crushed red pepper, garlic and soy sauce. Severed with Guinness.

Normally I do it all on a grill. But I keep forgetting to exchange my empty tank for a new one.
