Even my friends couldn't believe carp tasted that good!

There was a Preacher in Floydada, Texas in the 1960's that made the best carp patties. He would fillet the carp like a crappie, then cut out the mud vein and pressure-cook. I sure wish I had his recipe!

My grandpa used to fix them like this:
Gut them, cut the head off (use a hatchet)
split in half (again with the hatchet)
Salt them down and put them in a big old crock (or washtub, or bucket) for 24 hours - with the salt, they make their own brine.
hang in the smokehouse and smoke them just like you would a ham.
End result - you can't tell the difference between smoked carp and smoked salmon.
That's the only way I've even eaten carp, and it was really good.
