    Redfish are Partying Today

    The man who put them on the endangered list died today.

    RIP Paul Prudhomme. The guy who invented blackened everything, especially redfish.

    Nah, he did it on purpose, just so he could name drop some more.

    Really hadn't noticed that. did they use black pepper or something like it originally? All I've ever seen was the red stuff.

    "Blackened" is a divisive cooking style in my household ... I can't stand it ... Lynn loves it.

    Its awesome on ahi steaks. I'm not a redfish fan. Its also good on a steak but I won't use it on an expensive one.

    Old Bay blackened seasoning is my favorite for yellowfin steaks.

    Just ate at his restaurant a couple of weeks ago when we were in NOLA and it was mighty tasty.

    I believe he is the gent who came up with the turducken idea also.
