There's no disputing that crispy fried catfish is Alabama's specialty.  

It has long been fished from the state's rivers, and it's traditionally served with hush puppies (a deep-fried cornmeal batter snack) or coleslaw. 

To give it a try head to Atmore, where David's Catfish House – a friendly Southern spot that's part of a regional franchise – has rave reviews. 

It not only takes an enormous effort to catch these huge crabs, but it's a feat to crack into them too.
