cajun, used to get salmon heads at the docks here. Fish buyers were required to buy fish with head on so's Fish and Game could measure fish. They'd immediately cut the head off, and you could get all the head you could carry for free. Cut the cheeks out, throw head off the pier, fry them in butter and garlic...gaddam

I was drunk one night many years ago in Houston and ordered Fish Throats as a joke, well it was Great and I ordered them every time I went to this place.

I have not seen or heard of them for years until last night I was watching this food show and they where raving about how good they where!

The head meat of a big dolphin/mahi mahi is pretty good, too.

I've got a guy at the public market here who will get me tuna collars when I give him the word. I gotta get back down there and score some, I hear they are great grilled.

[shudder]

No.

I haven''t eaten chitterling''s either. Or, as I heard they''re pronounced up North, Pig butt-holes.

Doesn''t mean I''ll try them if some dumb SOB says they''re good.

^they are the fish equivalent to tenderloin.....a small muscle which is not toughened through continuous use. It''s just a piece of really really good fish that often is discarded due to ignorance.

Chitlin gravy is hard to beat.
