Smoked Catfish and Crawfish Tail Spread Recipe #286314
If you don’t have a smoker to smoke your catfish filets, I have had some success with oven-smoke bags that you can get at the grocery store. These bags come complete with wood chips and instructions. Simply place your fish in the bag, and bake according to the directions.
You can find crawfish tail meat already cooked and frozen in 1-pound packages in your supermarket freezer section.
