In 19 BBY, the Dathomirian Asajj Ventress and the Kiffar Quinlan Vos ate stew with burra fish during their time on Dathomir. Vos had killed the fish that day. Latero captain Greez Dritus often made burra fish in his starship, the Stinger Mantis, which he described as poorly cooked. Oven-roasted Burra Fish was a dish available for purchase at Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo in Black Spire Outpost on Batuu during the war between the First Order and the Resistance in 34 ABY. Sometime between 34 ABY and 35 ABY, Burra Fish Caviar and Tamarind-Glazed Burra Fish were sold on Chandrila Star Line's MPO-1400 Purgill-class star cruiser, the Halcyon.
To have bigger burra fish to fry was slang that meant to have more important or more interesting things to do or attend to. To be snared like burra in a trap was slang that could be said when someone was stuck, especially when in mud.
Burra fish first appeared in the new Star Wars canon in the 2015 novel Dark Disciple, which was written by Christie Golden. The species originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where they first appeared in the 1994 novel The Courtship of Princess Leia, which was written by Dave Wolverton. Closed captioning in the 2023 video game Star Wars Jedi: Survivor erroneously misspells "burra" as "burrah."
