Grilled bass half shell

I grilled a bass one time. Once.

Two fish you don't get fancy with...

Bass and sac-a-lait.

Wanna grill on half shell. Same as red fish, try different recipe. Tia.

My family’s preference is just this. I use butter, lemon and Tony Chachere. I actually usually season the butter as well as the fish. I use a lot of butter.

Don’t grill bass

I feel like bass would just turn to mush if grilled.

Don't grill bass. Waste of a good fry

I don't know why all the hate on grilling bass. I do it all the time comes out great. Personally I get sick of just frying fish it's a nice change of pace.

Redfish have a very thick skin and some people do them on the half shell with scales, id cook it with scales for myself but I would never chance that with my wife or friends.

Anyway, there's not much reason to keep the skin on is my point with most fish.

You are better off throwing it on some buttered or oiled aluminum foil and cooking it indirectly on your grill like an oven. That way you don't have to flip it. Just light half your grill and throw the fish on the other half once it gets hot.

You can 'grill' almost any fish that way, and throw an infitie variety of seasonings on them. Hard to screw up too, always tastes great.

You don't really want to directly grill thin fish filets as no matter how much you butter or oil the fish and grill grates you lose a good bit to sticking and falling through the grates.

I didn’t catch it, partner did. I’d thrown it back too. Only fish we caught. Thought I’d try it on the grill. Doing it tonight.

Scale, gut, clean, slit sides, rub with oil and salt. Stuff slits with lemons and season. Rub insides with salt and seasoning. Add lemons to inside. Wrap in foil and add white wine. Bake till done.
