[@Seamonkies321]

I've never seen a KZbin channel like this before where every single video is very informative and as highly entertaining. Great job and keep up the good work. 👍

[@kfred]

Thank you so much! That means a lot!

[@timroy8637]

Young ones just cubed them up add seasons & Dijon mustard & fry

[@paulfisher1879]

The only problem is Ken makes you very hungry after watch his cooking, which I love to watch.

[@jaymacklin8303]

Gotta see that crab stew video! Great job!

[@kfred]

Thanks Jay! I appreciate your continual support.

You can tell just how prehistoric they’re by how hard their scales are. That looks like some real good eating 👍.

That’s true! Thanks for watching and commenting!!

right! Watching that I was like "look at this f'n dinosaur right here"

[@kuja.3915]

It is! 💯

[@SlimJonesMcGeezy]

Never have I fathomed eating a gar. I assume they would be disgusting. Maybe I'd try it one day but I highly doubt it

[@mozlla4958]

That was a good episode I love that you guys prayed over the food and gave thanks.👍👍👍👌👌👌

[@kfred]

Thanks Man! I appreciate you watching and commenting

[@pawpawvapes9100]

Brings back a lot of good memories. Can remember my father using a machete and bare foot to clean big gars. My mother would fry the gar balls just like you with a lot of green onions and then add them to a brown gravy. You look familiar. I've lived in Louisiana all my life. Keep up the great video's

[@user-jx5jm1ut3z]

Happy new year, that was mouth watering! Loved the pray at the table, God bless you all

[@kfred]

Thanks brother!

[@barrylandry4447]

That's exactly how my dad tought me to clean them exact same way. Great video

[@phillipstewart213]

You can skip the step cutting off the head and cut the skin down to wear its opened up like wings and make a little slit and run your fingers down the ridge and the meat comes almost off then cut the rest of the way and pull it off. I was amazed the first time I did it how easy those filets just come right off and boneless

[@kfred]

Thanks for watching! I appreciate the support brother

[@johnnyreeves8697]

your video brought back a lot of memories. my aunt used to do balls. however she held nothing back. no matter what meat it was from turtles to gar. she made balls out of it all. she would scrape the bottom out after frying to make gravy. god bless and keep yall

[@snowwhite7571]

Stunning spread!!! Just yummy display!!

[@memememes7011]

You get it done son!And make it look easy. Keep up the awesome stuff!👍

[@kfred]

Thank you! I appreciate the support!

[@bootsandbowsoutdoors8727]

My daddy made a board similar to the one you used. It fit across the gunwales of the aluminum boat we had. He would clean the gars on it while we were waiting for more gars to hit the net (this was back when you could gill net them in south Louisiana). My mom would make the gar balls, roll them in a little flour and pan fry them then make a gravy from the roux formed from the flour falling off the boulettes. Eat that with some rice sa c’est bon!! We would also take the filets and just season them and pan fry them. Much better than frying in fish fry. Also, if you catch a few take a spoon and scrape the bones, you’ll get more meat for the boulettes. Enjoying the channel.

[@kfred]

That’s awesome! Sounds delicious! Thanks for watching and commenting

[@CraigArndt]

Thanks for showing me a better wat to get that far meat out. My shears are never good enough but I do own a cleaver.

[@kfred]

Thank you for watching!

[@calvinwinn7643]

I just take a carpenter’s hand saw and cut crosswise 2” slabs. Then it’s easy to take a knife to cut out the meat into steaks or grind into gar balls.

[@kfred]

@@calvinwinn7643 Nice!

[@iandtexarkana4549]

I wish more people start to eat Gars. These fish are normally abused by fishermen. After accidentally hooking them, people just throw them on the rock to let them rot, what a waste of good protein!

[@kfred]

They are good! Thanks for watching!
