Make crappie chowder.  You can thank me later.

Terrierman, I made some white bass chowder/soups last year and it was delicious.

Woza!! That was the best!!! I'll skip the chicken and rice plate next time and go straight to the soup!

 

Chief that is very similar to what I used to make out of deep fried turkey carcasses or even leftover smoked turkey carcasses.  Takes more cooking with all the bones to get the full flavor but dang good when it's done.  You can go cajun with it or many different flavors always good, especially on a chilly day.

     Fried up some of the fresh crappie caught Thursday. Ventured out of my comfort zone and made mayonnaise, yep with the raw egg yellow. Turned that into tartar sauce. Amazing!   Sides of green beans, fried potatoes and onions made In goose fat of course.

Great minds think alike. I pulled some walleye from the freezer and will make chowder for Sunday.

      We got to hankering for potato soup. With each step the house began to smell better and better. Some salivating was happening right until the first spoonful. Did some olive oil and rosemary skillet toast on the side. Do not think the leftovers will be around long.

BH - That soup and bread look great. I would be salivating if I didn't just eat roasted pork loin with roasted carrot/parsnips mix with caraway seeds.

Yesterday I got snowbound and did not head out to a small river to target minnows and early breeding darters. We decided to make spaghetti sauce So I thawed out 2 pounds of  ground venison and mixed and browned  that with 2 pounds of sweet Italian pork sausage. I added two diced yellow onions, two diced green bell peppers, two diced red bell peppers, minced two heads of garlic, diced two pounds of mixed mushrooms and cooked with the meats until the onions were translucent. Then I split this mixture into two 6 quart pans. I added almost a quarter cup of both dried sweet basil and oregano. Then it was a cup of south African pinotage red wine, a couple of large cans of tomato sauce, diced stewed tomatoes, and 16 oz of tomato paste. I reduced the heat and cooked the sauce on low heat for almost three hours. Great smells throughout the house while the sauce cooked. Ended up with about 10 to 11 quarts of sauce.

Then we had spaghetti.

While that looks wonderful, my wife will not let me at our crappie or walleye reserves...for soup. would a white bass, Drum, catfish or spot do?
