I haven't seen them for sale in grocery stores.  I think the net ban is still in place in Texas, but not positive. You might be able to get them on the wharves.

Restaurants have them again after they disappeared from menus for a while in the late 80s to early 90s.  Somebody must be selling them.

I could off a pier, when I went to visit my Mom in Rockport...not up here, it's store bought, but caught on the Gulf Coast.  I get them from a chain store, Central Market, that is owned by HEB who is down south of here.

My son made the best General Tsou's Chicken tonight.  'Twas wonderful!  He is becoming quite the cook.  Much better than I could ever hope to be.  :)

I remember you telling me that now.  My old-timer's will be the death of me!  I still haven't seen any here, unfortunately.  :(

I had a 'hankering' for it, and the price was close to reasonable....$12.99 a pound.  It was close enough to something I would spend my money on it, and it was worth it!  It will go down to about 8.99 a pound for a full fish later in the season.  Hopefully.

I'm going to have to ask the guy behind the fish counter at my HEB, "Where's the redfish!"  I'm lucky that I have a neighbor that catches them and brings them to me when we haven't been down there in a while, but I'd like to be able to get them myself when I have a "hankerin'" which I often do.  In fact, I have one right this minute.   :argh:

Sounds good.  How do you make it?  I like to throw some zucchini, onions, mushrooms and olives in with mine.

Tonight was a ribeye for myself, and country pork ribs for the wife, with steak fries of course.

Ran out of propane about 1/3 of the way through, but the steak saver saved the day:

We can still buy fresh local wild caught drum here.

I know most here will find this gross, but I made a "from scratch" broccoli rice casserole today, the recipe called for a wild rice blend and it was GOOD!

Count me for a "not gross". I think it sounds good.

No bacon, but bacon would have made it better.   :naughty:

I like the way your mind works.

BTW, I like broccoli and rice casserole with cheese. I wouldn't think it gross at all.

But I used a wild rice blend.  That might be off putting, but I thought it turned out pretty well.

Tonight - quinoa!

I went down to the hippy mart and bought a bag of quinoa. I took it home, and threw it out in the yard. A wild turkey crossed the road and ate the quinoa. I shot the turkey, and roasted him.



Mmmmmm-mmmm! That quinoa stuff worked out pretty good after all!
