Nope!! Never heard one person in 18 years of living in south Louisiana ever mention the thought of eating mullet. Filet is a spice thats added at the finishing stage of Gumbo. Now the Swamp Cabbage, grits and hushpuppies sound great and I would try a piece fried but the smoked mullet tasted like my aquarium filter smells after 6 months. Maybe I oughtta start smoking my aquarium filters and selling to ya'll.
