When my wife & I were in Key West back in April I had some great fish sandwiches at Boondock's on Ramrod Key and both Margaritaville (honest!) & B. O.'s (but of course!) in Key West. All were broiled and used either fresh grouper or mahi mahi, I think, along with (usually) lettuce, tomatoes, and a special sauce or seasoning.
Now, back here in southcentral PA, I'm going through "fish sandwich withdrawl".....the local restaurants tend to fry their fish (frozen, I'm sure) and the taste, well, it just doesn't come close.......
I'd really appreciate hearing some of my fellow BNers home recipes when you're in the mood for good fish sandwich......and thanks!
This is not a sandwich but you are about 50 miles from the Harrisburg
area I believe and Nathan's in Enola has something called a
Belly Buster Fish platter. A monster piece of haddock with potato
planks, which are oversized fries.

What kind of fish (other than goldfish), do you marinade the fish with anything, what seasonings do you use? Things like that......
Help JoetownParrotthead......
If not, I may have to get back down to KW sooner than planned.....
I grill my grouper or whatever type of fish, a little lemon Pepper on both sides, then use a spicy cajun mayo with diced Red onions, a few dill slices on a grilled Hogie roll..... Serve with Cole Slaw or French Fries! GOOD eats!
SORRY been out of town!

Well, OK, do you have one to try??????? It would seem that you'd need a lot of goldfish to make any kind of meal........
wouldnt that be a little bit crunchy??
Ok, nice big bulkie roll, haddock, or talapia would work good.....
haddock would probably be better..... pickles, cole slaw, and a little bit of katsup.

Thanks a bunch JoeTown, I've been dying in this thread!!!!!!! I'll give your recipe a try over the 4th.....or just go back to KW and I agree there is no downside to that!

Tried your recipe over the 4th.......used fresh grouper......that's the closest thing to a "real" Key West fish sandwich yet!!!! I think this version might hold me over until our next visit in March!
my son makes a flounder poboy which is a thick piece of flounder, dipped in a little seasoned flour, lightly fried, but it won't be like it's breaded just acquire a light crust in a few spots. It is served with coleslaw and remoulade? sauce. Very moise, light and yummy.
Navy Seals are Cooler then Pirates You Can Dream Anyway, There's always next year!!!
Although I've never cooked a goldfish (that I know of! ) here's what we do at our house-
Kroger usually has a good supply of frozen red snapper-soak the thawed fish in milk, filet it, cut in chunks and bread it w/ House of Autry seasoning (might be a local thing, but it's AWEWOME). For an extra treat, double bread it....dip it in milk then breader, then egg and breader. Fry in hot oil.
My love is staying an anchor tied to you with that silver chain.
It would seem that you'd need a lot of goldfish to make any kind of meal........
