Doc Leonard's Fish Fry Recipe

Ingredients to coat 200 filets:

• Approximately 3 lbs of white flour
• Approximately 3 lbs of corn meal
• 1 container lemon pepper spice
• About 3/4 of a 10 lb container of bacon grease (a cherries container from the cherries sale works great!)

Ingredients per bag of coating mix  (Generally 2 bags are made up):

• 1.5 lbs white flour
• 1.5 lbs corn meal    
• 4 capfuls of lemon pepper spice

Typically the fish are frozen in 1/2 gallon milk containers. In these it takes approximately 12 hours to thaw. Once thawed, they are dipped into a coating bag and cooked in bacon grease over a wood-fueled fire. Then they are devoured!
