Fried Catfish
The secret to our special recipe for authentic Southern fish fry Fridays? Our Cornmeal Breading! This Fried Catfish recipe is the same one we use and serve in our Nashville kitchen. Inspired by Annie Loveless’s original recipe, it fries up perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside for true Southern flavor in every bite.
