Thick and meaty for a white fish, so treat it almost like a steak.

Where it comes fromFillet

On the grill

Firmer and thicker than most white fish, so it holds together on direct heat better than cod does, but it still dries out fast once it passes through.

A thick steak-cut piece can take a reverse sear approach too: gentle indirect heat until close to done, then a quick direct finish.

Seasoning

Straight over the coals, lid off or barely on, and watched.

Smoke it with alder, beech or apple.
