Re: Soy Honey Chilli Smoked Catfish
The catfish look a treat MM, I have never tried catfish,is it a strong fishy taste that you need a rub and smoke. Also were they freshwater or saltwater catfish? I remember as a kid throwing these along with eels back into the water,now both are now delicatcies.

Oily old bottom feeder but if cooked right its awsum, any oily fish makes the best smokers, grey mullets probay the cheapest fish in New Zealand and fantastic smoked, another underlooked culperate is the dreaded slimy mackerel .
I know everyone is shuddering at the thought but peppered mackerel is a prized fish around the world.
So trust me, next time you catch one of those slimey lil bastards fake it home and brine it, then rub it with a mix or black pepper and brown sugaR and you'll never talk badly of said fish again
