With all the crazy things going on in the world it does me good to see y’all still posting on KZbin! Thank y’all from Southeast Texas!

Thank you Shannon for filming the video, Kent did a excellent job in the wind cooking up the smoked catfish! Excellent recipe.

[@tomf9292]

Kent, you always put a smile on my face… and the food looks great too!

When i was a kid, we lived in Canada and had a little river out behind our house. In the river was a little bump of land we called an "island... " taking liberties. However, on one side, was quite a good "hole" where the cats liked to lay. After catching a few, we'd just be-head and strip the innards, then roast them on a stick over an open fire and let a pat (or three) of butter and sit there and pick it off the bones. So many years later, I swear I can still taste it. But this looks like the other way I'd like to eat it, ill be trying it soon. A tip... for your viewers. When cleaning your catfish, many people claim they taste "muddy." Thats because there is a filter, called a "mud strip," that runs along the top/back of the fish. Remove this strip and you'll never have a "muddy" fish again. :)

[@SierraNagual]

A Big Thank You from all us Armed Forces retirees , veterans and those still serving. You and Shannon always restore our faith in humanity. Please don't ever stop! Thanks! Doug from Moab, Utah

I sent my neighbour a Kent Rollins video and he thumbs downed it. I'm not speaking to him now, nobody disses my love of Sir Kent's work!

[@lpvs3254]

No shoot?! If you need help roughing him up let me know, can o whoop A&@ !

[@gabrielrooks9222]

Kent Rollins was not lying. That smoked catfish was delicious. I used cherry wood since I couldn't find peach. Everyone loved the tartar sauce. I made mine with extra capers to make your mouth pucker. Keep the great recipes a coming.

[@Chris-liwymi]

you sir are an american hero, the country needs people like you, feels like home watching your videos

[@Craig2760]

My wife said to me last night, “we haven’t heard from Cowboy Kent yet this week”. I reminded her, we’ll see him tomorrow!

[@ttouran]

As Kevin Pitt II mentioned, with all the nasty things going on out there in this great country, as an immigrant who grew up in the south, I love this channel. To me, this is classic Americana, and the Cowboy, Shannon, and the quality control staff bring a sense of normalcy. I love the U.S. flag in the background flying around in the wind in all its glory. Keep up the great the work Cowboy Kent and wish you all the very best always. We all need to be grateful to live in this country, and you know, I am not a big fan of catfish ( I am a steak/meat and potato dude), but I am gone give this a try.

[@kevinfreeman6492]

I just ordered and received both of his Cook Books. I was so excited to get them and so disappointed that I hadn't ordered them sooner. They are well worth the investment and are top quality, no I don't know Kent or Shannon but I feel like I do after reading all the stories and see how much work that went into them. Thank you kids so much for all that you share, I feel truly blessed to get to watch all your great videos. Can't wait tilll we meet up on the trail. God bless you both.

[@CowboyKentRollins]

Kevin thanks so much for the kind words and we hope they bring you many happy meals

[@jackwebb437]

Brother Rollins: Down in South Texas (just south of Kingsville) is a seafood restaurant called Kings Inn. Best gulf shrimp and fried drum you’ll ever eat. Their “secret” recipe for their tarter sauce has to be very close to what you made. But I’ve been told there are some crushed Ritz crackers added that gives it some body. But that horseradish (I am sure they chop it up fresh from the root) just makes you do the Kent Rollins shuffle. Google Kings Inn Tarter Sauce recipe.

[@JohnDoe-vf2yo]

Hell of a time to get a catfish recipe notification while I'm out here at the lake fishing. *drops bass rig* *picks up channel cat rig* "Here kitty-kitty, Kent has a damned good soundin recipe for ya!" Maybe if I apply my phone speaker to the line, the vibration of Kent's voice might entice the catfish to bite knowing they'll be cooked just right. Here's hoping. 🙏

[@philosophicallyinclined3705]

So glad you used DILL pickles! It's been a long standing feud here over sweet vs dill. I like the addition of horse radish. Always wanted to try adding some Cholula or Tabasco. Now, to go catch me some catfish!

Looks delicious! Can’t wait to try. Especially the tartar sauce. I live in Alaska and think this sauce will compliment a lot of the fish we eat up here!

Keep it light, keep it mellow, is great advice for fish. When I lived in Alaska, Alder was the #1 wood for salmon. I can't wait to try some frozen farm raised catfish fillets in my new electric smoker. I'll be going for a Cajun flavor and will smoke some jalapeno peppers at the same time. Some of the roasted peppers will go on top of the served fillet and then covered with a hollandaise sauce. With a side of asparagus tips and rice, I'll be in heaven.

[@carlosgutierrezjimenez200]

Kent, that smoked fish looks UNBELIEVABLE. Thanks for the recipe, friend. Gonna try it out on my smoker soon!!!

Thank you guys for making me laugh every single week. I love catfish. Every time I go to the store to get groceries I see catfish. In northern Minnesota on the iron range where I am from they have, walleye, perch, bass, and northern. Catfish tops all those fish. The flavor is so much better. 🤩💯

[@dougpaige]

Growing up in East Tennessee, I've ate my weight many times over in catfish. Northern caught walleye or perch from y'alls cold, clean water is a delicacy to me. One of the best meals I ever had was in Northern Wisconsin. It was perch and fried eggs for breakfast. Breakfast!

I remember years ago my uncle brought some smoked Halibut fish from Washington State with the horseradish sauce it was incredible.

Oxymoron: French’s Worcestershire. Kent, Justin Wilson always said the only Worcestershire is Lea & Perrins. They invented it, and like CocaCola, no one else has ever figured it out.

[@valvenator]

Good catch! I basically hated wooster sauce until I tried Lea & Perrins. Total game changer.
