5/17/14 Part 2

Well straight from the lake to the frying pan!!!! When I went to Wisconsin last year with Amelia and her family they took me to a Friday night fish fry at a supper club....... now for all of you westerners like myself who have no idea what a supper club is lets let wiki help us out. 

Anyway on Fridays its tradition from the supper clubs to do an all you can eat fish fry..... and boy oh boy it was delicious.  Anyway, growing up I can only remember one time where we didn't cook fish in our traditional, put the whole thing in tin foil with some lemon and then throw it on the grill, but now you could say I have grown a "finer tooth" for fish :)  My Dad taught me how to use a fillet knife (here is an awesome instructional video too (start at about 5:47))

 and my amazing wife Amelia got me a really nice one for Christmas, so I filleted up my three rainbows and I made a made a batter that I found the recipe for on-line. 

Rainbow Trout Fillets

Beautiful 18in Rainbow Pre-Fillet

6 very nice fillets seasoned with lemon pepper

The fish turned out really good, but the batter was terrible!!! The recipe called for way to much baking soda and it left a burning after taste in your mouth!!!! DANG!!! I tried so hard!!! Oh well!!! The fish still tasted good.... after you peeled the batter off!!!

Brown Sugar Pineapple, Homemade Fries, and Battered Trout!!

Anyway, Mike and Anna were awesome and we all went over to their house for a fish fry and grilled pineapple.  The fries were awesome, the pineapple was to die for, the fish were alright (once the battering was gone) and the smores were spectacular...... not the mention the company was phenomenal!!!  Anyway, all in all it was a pretty great day!!!
