Oh poop. Bless your redneck fried fish taco heart.

Kidding. If you haven't had authentic, fresh fish tacos in SoCal, give em a shot. Amazing.

Listen buddy, I don't make the rules; I just follow them. Fish tacos are supposed to be on a corn tortilla and get your fricking tomatoes out of the guacamole.

Thanks for all the advice, fellas. The fish tacos went over very well at the camp out.

I made the cole slaw ahead of time from scratch: 2/3 red cabbage, 1/3 green cabbage, cilantro, and green onions. For the slaw sauce, I used mayo and lime juice, plus, I looked for some sweet and vinegary to add, and found some Vietnamese fish sauce, and some plum sauce, and added just a touch of both. I seasoned it with cumin, celery salt, black pepper, and regular salt.

It was excellent, if I may say so. Better than I had hoped, and it went very well with both the fish tacos, and the cochon de lait on bun that we served on Saturday night.

For the fish, I went cheap and bought fresh tilapia filets. I marinated them in lime juice, garlic powder, chili powder, and cumin, and then cooked them in a skillet with butter and lemon juice. The tilapia was a little too tender, but the flavor was good.

Overall, the meal was a big hit with the boys and their parents.

Thanks for the tips and ideas!

The food board delivers, again!
