A quick Google search says $6+ for pork bung. I know I’ve paid less for squid (I’m in California).

I’m so sorry. I seem to have hijacked this thread by accident. I do that more often than is good for a Doper. Here, let me get this back on track: Mixed Seafood in Creamy Wine Sauce.

Then you need to fry up some Gumbercules!

I would do exactly such as this, except that I would take a short cut and use a packet of Alfredo sauce on top and mix it all together.

So…what did you end up doing with your bag o’ seafood, @Johnny_L.A ? My wife is having dinner with a friend tonight, and when I’m on my own for dinner, I like to make something with seafood / shellfish, since I’m much more into it than Mrs. solost. Also, about to make a grocery run in about an hour. Thinking cioppino, or maybe just a simple crab / shrimp boil.

Walleye think it’s a damn shame.

Too late— I already sold it awhile back for some King Crab (y’all price that shit lately?)

I prefer Dungeness. I can’t remember the last time I had king crab.

I like Dungeness a lot too. I used to get it all the time but the grocery store I usually go to these days never seems to carry it. Closest seafood market is a bit of a hike.

You’re right, @Johnny_L.A haddock great opportunity to land that pun but floundered.

I almost did. But I’m serious about abalone.
