  4. Dredge the catfish in the cornmeal mixture until coated.  Shake off any excess.
  5. Heat your vegetable or canola oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat.
    1. Note: Oil should be hot enough to sizzle if you splash water.
  6. Fry the catfish in small batches and prevent crowding in the pan.
  7. Cook for approx 10-15 minutes until the catfish reaches an internal temp or 145*
  8. Rest the cooked catfish on a wire cooling rack.
