With yet another beautiful weekend to look forward to, there’s no better way to beat the heat by joining in! This week we have the most stunning catfish fillets on sale. Catfish is a moist fillet with a sweet and mild flavor and firm flesh that doesn’t flake like other white fish. This distinctive flavor profile lends itself to the spicier Cajun seasonings local to areas where catfish are readily available. We will have all your usual favorites, of course, including two varieties of wild salmon.

Here’s the list:

  • Whole Fish
    • Red Snapper
    • Bronzino
    • Rainbow trout
  • Steaks
    • Swordfish
    • Tuna
    • Scottish salmon
  • Fillets
    • Catfish
    • Day-boat cod
    • Scottish salmon
    • Striped bass
    • Tilapia
    • Sockeye salmon
    • Fluke
    • Coho salmon
  • Shellfish
    • 21/25 Mexican white shrimp
    • 16/20 peeled and deveined shrimp
    • 10/20 dry sea scallops
    • Madhouse oysters (MD)

  2. Press catfish fillets into the spice mixture to thoroughly coat.
  3. Melt butter in a glass or metal bowl and transfer about half to a large cast-iron skillet. Place over a high heat.
