Big Mullet Series (BMS)
Mullet is a useless,
bottom-feeding, salt-water fish indigenous to the Gulf Shores, Alabama
coastline area.
It is the only fish with a gizzard and is said to possess mystical
properties. The Striped or Black Mullet is a delicacy
along the Northwest Florida and Alabama Gulf Coast. Many restaurants in
those areas serve mullet as the mainstay of their menus. Fried mullet
are the most popular. Smoked, baked, and canned mullet are also eaten.
Mullet is usually filleted. The left over frames are often used to make
excellent fish stock. The stock makes superb chowders, stews, and
bouillabaisse. Mullet does not keep well after it is
caught. If kept on ice it may remain edible for approximately 24 hours.
If kept much longer it begins to loose its freshness and becomes nearly
inedible. The sooner it can be eaten after being caught, the better. When shopping for mullet for consumption,
choose only those fish with clear eyes. Cloudy eyes are indicators of
loss of freshness. The teams in the Big Mullet Series are older than 24
hours and have lost their freshness hence the name of this fruitless
competition.

Cyrus named the
official spokesperson for the BDFL's Big Mullet Series
GULF SHORES - Here at the
Flora-Bama today, the BDFL announced that county music singer and actor
Billy Ray Cyrus from Flatwoods, Kentucky would be the official
spokesperson for the BDFL's Big Mullet Series. Cyrus was the target and
logical choice because of his southern roots, trend setting Mullet
hairdo of the 1980s and the fact he logged many hours on the Gulf Coast
as an entertainer and vacationer. Cyrus said, "I guess if Iron Hand
won't give me a franchise in the BDFL, this is probably the next best
thing".
