While waiting on my Babybacks to finish up, a friend and I are wondering about some fish recipes of the BGE. He caught these while deep sea fishing, and we aren't quite sure of what to do with them. Any help is always appreciated. Thanks, Lisa

    NoleGirl,
    Here lately,several of us here in MA.(middle Alabama)have been scarffin' down a bunch of thick King Mack's & amberjack steaks.Voted to be our best eattin' way of cookin' these thangs is as follows:We marinate for at least 24 hrs. in cheap Italian dressing ( Sam's club,about $3.50 per gallon.) then put on a good layer of JJ's rub, wrap in something to seal it overnight.Clamp steaks in fish basket(cage), cook direct 250°-300° for 8-10 min. per side depending on steak thickness.Ours was about 1 1/4" thick,so went 10 min. per side.Was GoooooooDD. Bob
