Pretty straight forward one for you.

Buy some Old Bay Blackening seasoning.
Get some buttermilk.
Get some catfish.
Get some peanut oil.

I like to soak the filets in buttermilk for a bit. Pat them a little dry but don't rinse them off. Coat with blackening, fry it up in an inch or two of hot oil.

T6
for Blackened It requires a very hot skillet (cook  outside if possible-----Lots of smoke). Use H20's blackening seasoning, but dont fry in oil, just the seasoned fillet then place directly on a heavy "HOT" cast iron. About 2 min. per side should do it.
I have purchases blackening spices, but have never made my own. There are google recipes for homeade however.
If you do this inside, unplug the smoke detectors :chuckle:

Nope, gotta be done in oil. Like a blackened fried catfish. Don't listen to anyone else. I obvoiusly know all there is to know.

However, I do agree, do it outside or open all the windows and take your batteries out of the smoke detectors.

Also, post pics.

I coat the fillets with Emeril's spice.  A very thin film of oil in in a very hot cast iron pan for frying.  Use an oil with a high smoke point like grape seed oil or equivalent.  And yes, do this outside.
Look man, some times you just gotta roll the dice

I use the Cajuns choice blackening seasoning on my halibut. Like said before I do mine outside ( learned my lesson the first time doing it inside) on the bbq on smoking hot cast iron skillet. I do not use oil either.
