Where it comes fromFillet

On the grill

A good tuna steak is seared, not cooked through. Screaming hot direct heat for perhaps 30–45 seconds a side leaves a thin cooked band and a raw red centre.

Pat it fully dry before it goes on. Any surface moisture stops the sear and steams the outside instead of browning it.

Seasoning

280 °C+direct

As hot as the grill will go. Minutes a side, and never walk away.

Smoke it with alder, beech or apple.
