BARBECUED PULLED PORK SANDWICHES WITH HOMEMADE BBQ SAUCE, COLE SLAW, AND FRIED PICKLES

Steps:

• Place the pork in a baking dish. In a bowl, combine the sugar, Essence, salt, cumin, paprika, pepper, and cayenne. Rub the seasoning evenly over the pork to coat. Cover with plastic and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. Preheat an oven or smoker to 225 degrees F. Bring the pork to room temperature and place in a roasting pan, fat side up. Slow cook in the oven, basting with the wet mop basting sauce every 45 minutes, until tender and the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. (The cooking should take about 6 to 7 hours.) Remove from the oven and let rest for 20 to 30 minutes. With a knife and fork or two forks, pull the meat apart into small slices or chunks. Toss with the barbecue sauce, to taste, and divide among the hamburger buns. Top with the coleslaw. Serve with the fried pickles and additional Barbecue Sauce on the side.

DEEP FRIED CATFISH W/ APPALICHIAN COLE SLAW

Steps:

• 1. CATFISH: rinse catfish filets and let drain in strainer for at least 30 mins
• 2. To me the most important thing you can do for this dish is to clean them cats good! Some people say the red streak (fat) down the middle of the filet does not change the flavor of the fish BUT I have found it does it gives it that "fishy" taste to me! Ok I did a few photos to show what i mean on the cleaning, trimming and cutting into fingers.....Hope this helps :)
• 3. Cut the filets in half following the middle split in the filet. trim the thickest part of the red or brownish color off the filet after you cut in half.
• 4. Cut each diagonally into fingers you will get 2 to 3 "fingers" per piece of catfish depending on size
• 5. Place fingers in bowl
• 6. In separate bowl mix up buttermilk, hot sauce and lemon or lime juice and pour over catfish. Let this soak for around 30 minutes
• 7. In a big Ziploc bag place flour, cornmeal mix and Cajun seasoning. I don't add extra salt because the seasoning seems to have plenty but add it if you think it needs it pepper to :) Shake the mix around to get good and mixed up.
• 8. Finger drain your catfish (just pick up a few and let them drain shake off some of the liquid) and add to flour mixture add a few and shake them around and then add a few more and shake them around repeat until all are in bag and coated with flour/cornmeal mix. If you seem to be running low on the mix or fingers are not coated good toss in a handful of flour and shake some more :)
• 9. Let catfish hang out in Ziploc bag while you heat your oil to 350 degree once oil is hot place a few fingers into it and fry until nice and brown. Do this in batches so you don't over crowed the pot.
• 10. Once nice and brown remove to wire rack or plenty of paper towels to drain
• 11. "APPY Slaw" Appalachian Cole Slaw
• 12. Cut, Chop and Finely dice cabbage. Peel, cut, chop and Finely dice Carrots. Finely dice green onions and put in a bowl together.
• 13. In a separate bowl mix everything for the slaw dressing.
• 14. Pour dressing over cabbage mixture and mix well. Taste to see if you want more mayo or vinegar or mustard Make this your own if it is to much vinegar add a little mayo and a sprinkle of sugar, to sweet add a drop of mustard or vinegar. Just play to get your favorite flavor out of this that how we do it up here in the Appy Mountains :)

PAN-FRIED FLOUNDER AND COLE SLAW

Then, slowly drizzle in olive oil while constantly whisking to continue to emulsify the mayonnaise. When the mayonnaise is thick and rich, whisk in the vinegar. (Makes about 1 1/2 cups)
• For the cole slaw: Remove 1 cup of mayonnaise to a small bowl and reserve (This will keep, refrigerated, for up to 2 weeks). To the remaining mayonnaise, add the julienned cabbage, radishes, turnips, and carrots. Season with salt and pepper, and add cider vinegar. Drizzle with olive oil to soften the vegetables, add parsley, and set aside to marinate while preparing the fish.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over high heat. Season fish with salt and pepper on both sides. Drizzle one tablespoon of oil in the pan for each piece of fish that is added to the pan and heat until almost smoking. Check marinated coleslaw for seasoning and add salt and pepper if necessary. Fold in kale followed by a squeeze of lemon.While pan is heating, check the marinating cole slaw and adjust for seasoning, adding salt, pepper, mayonnaise or vinegar to taste. Fold in Kale and finish with a squeeze of lemon cheek.
• Set aside. Gently add the fish to the pan while keeping it on a high heat. Smash a clove of garlic and lay it in the pan along with a sprig of thyme and butter. Cook 2 minutes, then flip. Baste fish with pan juices and cook 2 more minutes. Repeat with remaining fish adding more oil, butter, garlic and thyme as necessary. Place coleslaw in the center of the plate and gently place the fish on top.
