Steps:
- In a bowl, add the 2 cups milk and a heavy pinch of salt. Whisk to dissolve and add the fish chunks. Allow to soak at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Set up the dredging station: In the first bowl, add 1 cup flour. In the second bowl, whisk the eggs and add the remaining 2 tablespoons milk. In the third bowl, add the remaining 1 cup flour, the cornmeal, sugar and a pinch of salt followed by a few grinds of pepper.
- In a frying pan with straight sides, add enough oil to fill 1-inch deep. Heat until the oil begins to swirl and the handle of a wooden spoon begins to sizzle as soon as it hits the oil. The oil will be about 350 degrees F.
- Remove the fish from the milk in batches of 6 to 8 chunks. Shake the excess milk off the fish. Dredge in the flour, then the egg wash and then in the flour and cornmeal mixture. Add the batch to the oil, making sure to not overcrowd the pan and bring down the temperature. Fry, flipping once if needed, until a light golden brown and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with a sprinkle of salt. Repeat until all the fish chunks are done.
- In a small bowl, add the hot sauce and sift the sugar on top. Gently stir together. Drizzle over the nuggets or dunk them in the sauce.
CRUNCHY CATFISH NUGGETS
Crunchy catfish nuggets that can be served as hors d'oeuvres. These were a special hit with my 3 year old who loved the fact that she could eat them like finger food. You may want to adjust the seasoning - my daughter is used to spicy stuff! These have the great taste of fried fish without the grease.

SOUTHERN FRIED CATFISH NUGGETS
This is the only way I've ever had catfish. I can't stand to eat it fried in restaurants, it tastes muddy to me, but I can eat it this way.

Steps:
- Put oil in a skillet until it is halfway up or you can use a deep fryer, a deep fryer is actually best for these. Heat until hot or if using skillet use medium high heat.
- In a large bowl beat egg with a fork, add buttermilk to it. Beat again to incorporate.
- In another big bowl put cornmeal and seasonings to taste.
- Rinse nuggets and dip into milk mixture, depending on how many you have you could probably fit them all in at one time.
- Take a few out of the milk and dip in to the cornmeal, roll around to get it coated good, then put into oil.
- If using skillet put them in until skillet is full. fry 3 minutes, turn and fry another 2-3 minutes. If using a deep fryer fry 5 minutes, about halfway through stir them around to break up any that might have clumped together. They are done when golden brown and flake easily with a fork.

BB KING'S CATFISH NUGGETS & SAUCE
I'm not real sure how I came about this recipe, but I think I was watching the Food Network and someone there was visiting BB King's place in Memphis, TN. I had to listen really hard and this is what I came up with. This sauce is to die for! We make it everytime I fry catfish and there is never any left over. We even use this recipe for our fish tacos. Serve with a nice cole slaw. YUM!

CHILI-GRILLED CATFISH SKEWERS
I got 10lbs of catfish nuggets on sale and I wanted a change from the usual breading and frying. Just enough bite, but not overwhelmingly spicy. DH wanted thirds so I guess I should have doubled the batch. Note: Catfish nuggets are a regional item mainly found in the southern US. They are the irregular odds and ends of broken fillets left over from the packing process. Either whole catfish fillets or any other firm, white fish with enough integrity to stay on the skewers can be substituted if you can't get catfish nuggets.

Steps:
- Thread catfish nuggets on 6-8 bamboo skewers.
- Mix sauce ingredients thoroughly.
- Brush sauce onto both sides of the catfish skewers and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Heat grill medium high.
- Brush one side of catfish skewers with sauce again.
- Load into grilling basket and place on grill sauce side down.
- Grill 3-5 minutes until half done.
- Brush with remaining sauce.
- Flip and grill another 3-5 minutes until done.
- Note: The grilling basket may or may not be necessary. I am very nervous about cooking fish on the grill without it and risking losing our dinner into the flames.
