I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Chef Paul Prudhomme is an Authentic Cajun from south and southwest Louisiana, aka Acadiana

All of Chef Paul's recipes I have tried over the years have not disappointed me.

Sorry folks I almost forgot, here's the recipe for this dish along with a few pics I took when preparing it once. We make it pretty often, it's worth it. It doesn't last long around here so make a good mess of it, the leftovers are great too.

Great food has always resulted from every Chef Paul recipe I've tried.

His rubs & seasonings are good stuff, too.

R.I.P. Paul Prudhomme.

Flounder, oysters and shrimp.


It's a meal that I grew up eating as kid on my family's weekly dining out nights at the coast. My wife, son & I changed it up and made our family meal out a bbq fest.

Lately, I've been trying to bring it back.

Great memories. Sure wish my Grandaddy & Grandma J were here to have some....as well as my Father-In-Law, Max. He was a bigtime coastal fella who lived off seafood.

Nothing like Calabash seafood! That looks perfect! Seems like I can never get the Calabash thing cooked just right. It's always good, but not exactly how I want it to be.

Me, too. Struggle is real.

It's so easy to overcook. One of these day's I'll figure out the proper order to cook 'em in so everything hits the table ready roll. Been doing oysters first....fish next and skrimp lastly.

Love some House-Autry Seafood breading mix.....and then some Crystal after it's done.

I know you like the Louisiana beading mix goodness.

I'm afraid I took for granted my life as a youngster when freshly speared grouper were filleted and fried in hyooge chunks. Best food I've had in my life. Thinking seriously of having whatever type of sinus surgery I need so I can dive again and bring 'em in.

I like the HOA a lot too. I usaually just add a bit of black pepper and cayenne to it.

Lawd have mercy, @NCHillbilly you got Eye-Talian nailed down tighter 'n storm shutters in a hurricane.

Outstanding looking meals.


Copy that!

And you know what's interesting is Italian food was VERY prominent in New Orleans also. There were a lot of Italians there. The Siclian Mafia more or less started there.

Interesting History about it below, relating it to the roots of great Italian food that could be had there besides Cajun/French:

My taste in Italian food leans more toward the Tuscan style-more meat, less pasta.

How do you season those oysters? I love fried oysters but have never cooked any of my own for some reason!

I've never tried the Ed's. Never seen it up here, I don't think. I love me some Crystal, though.
