Smoking some marlin.

We caught a small marlin this weekend. Marinade it in some korean bbq sauce and using kiawe  wood for smoke.

Holy ****!  That's Spectacular!!!  I want some!  Amazing catch brother!

wow.  I wish my small catch was 1/3 that size.  Can you tell me a little about the kiawe smoke wood, in terms of flavor.

@bgebrent  thanks, my dad's boat is super lucky  this  year.  If u lived near by, I would definitely  share some with u. In fact all of the marlin went to me and my brother.  We also caught 2 wahoo.  My dad took most of the wahoo and he didn't  want any marlin.

@ryantt kiawe  is very similar to mesquite. Very strong flavor and smell.

Awesome! You can't beat grilled fish. Especially one you caught yourself.

g37

Yes, u can't beat fresh fish.

There was a time when I used Ono almost exclusively for my beef cooks. Great flavour profile and loved the slow controlled burn.

I've never tried Ono or any type of kiawe charcoal  but it is on my must try list.
