CATFISH CULTURE

Think Outside The Bird For Thanksgiving!

Fellowship, family, football and... Catfish? Yep! We're talking about Thanksgiving, that most classic of American holidays.


"Catfish at Thanksgiving?" you say. Yes, indeed! You might be surprised to learn that turkey may have played a minimal role in the original "Turkey Day". The first Thanksgiving was held in a coastal area, and although farm raised catfish was still a few short centuries away, seafood was likely the star of the show at this most famous meal. Contrary to popular belief, it's not known for certain if turkey was featured on the original Thanks-givers' menu at all. The Pilgrims and Native Americans also looked to nearby lakes and streams to create their daily menus, so freshwater fish may also have been prepared for the historic feast.


We won't go so far as to say the Pilgrims loved catfish, but we sure as heck do! So if you'd like to get a little more traditional, or just add some flair, we suggest thinking outside the bird for your holiday feast.
