Grilled Striper Slabs

[tex_toby]

I grilled two slabs of striper on the Chargriller. It's not my first choice of fish to cook like this on the grill, although it is still great. I prefer doing Red Snapper this way, but I haven't been deep sea fishing in over a year. I live on one of the best striper lakes in the country, so my freezer is usually well stocked with the local species! I normally don't buy fish at the store, but rather cook what I catch. The process is a follows:

Here I have two slabs thawed out from my freezer:



Next, I squeezed fresh lemon & lime juice generously over them, sprinked with garlic powder, cajun seasoning, buttered, and then freshly ground garlic pepper over them.




Then, off to the grill they went. On one, I topped with salsa once it was on the grill. I direct grilled them, scales down, over a medium-hot fire until the ends started to curl up (about 10 minutes). Cook until fish turns white and flakey.

Final product...



Here are a couple of pics my wife and I striper fishing last summer:




Sorry - my documenting and photography skills are not the best, so feel free to ask any questions!
