V-8 Fillets

[Guest]

I've just finished eating and am compelled to share this -- Put several pats of butter (or oleo) on heavy duty foil. Place fillet on top (I used channel catfish). Season with garlic powder, pepper, parsley and a little dill. Place a couple slices of onion on top of fillet. Sprinkle a little Real Lemon over top, then run a bead of catsup over the whole thing. Seal the foil to keep in heat & moisture. Cook under covered grill or high oven for 8 to 12 minutes.

Unwrap foil and behold a great entree.

Incidentally, if you drive a V-8 (or V-6) you can cook fish this way if you want to prepare a hot meal while going from one fishing spot to another. Half an hour drive with the foil on the manifold between the cylinders and you've got a cooked fillet to eat with potato salad and raw carrots. Yum.

Clayton that cracked me up!!! Haven't done the manifold thing in years. My parents used to have a place on Diamond Lake out near Willmar. Every weekend my buddy and I would wrap up some stuff in the foil and leave friday after school from the Cities, When we go out to Willmar - Wala dinner

Paul, If I ever have the opportunity to eat in your restaurant, promise me you won't be cooking on the manifold.

Hey, I tried that once. Problem was, the fish got sucked down the carb...had to hold the plate behind the exhaust pipe while my buddy floored it...spit 'em right out. They had a wonderful smokey flavor to 'em! LMAO

[Guest]

LMAO

That's called taking the gaspipe!!! That's what I need after a few days of all work and no fishing

Another similar to this one, I watched on O'neil outdoors. "Super Clean Trout"

Same recipe, add another layer of sealed foil, then put it in the dishwasher with your dishes and run it.

When dishes where clean, he opened it up, and ate the steaming trout.

To each his own.

[Guest]

Yeah, but dishwashers take longer to run thru all the cycles -- then you've got dirty dishes again after eating the fish -- but the main reason I prefer the V-8 is because I can take it with me. I can't ride in my dishwasher.

[Guest]

Can't ride in the dishwasher??? Hmmm...that gives me an idea!!! LMAO
My wife always tells the kids..."NEVER tell your Dad he can't"!!! HeeHeeHaHaHa

Dishwasher seat belts irritate the skin when they get soggy and soap saturated.
