Wife and I are having Swordfish tonight.
Found a nice recipe on the forum not to long ago, so I decided to give it a try.
It’s a Southwest style recipe consisting of Cumin, Mayo, Lime Juice, Sour Cream, Salt and Pepper.[p]Put salt and pepper on fish,
Brush with oil
Sprinkle cumin on fish and pat into fish.[p]In another bowl
Can’t remember measurements but add
Mayo
Lime Juice
Sour cream
Garlic
This is left a room temp and put on top of Swordfish when fish is cooked.
Sounds yummy[p]Smoked with Alder wood chips (Thx to KennyG)[p]I will go 500* for 4-5 minutes each side, take Swordfish off the egg and wrap in foil for the remainder of the cook.[p]

    dublin:[p]If I may suggest, consider cooking at a slightly lower temperature - 375º/400º - and nix the foil.

    djm5x9,[p]Might just take you up on that.[p]How do I know when it's done as swordfish is pretty thick.
    I just ordered a Thermapen, so other than looking for flakey skin i won't know when it's ready.
    Foil was just a safier way of knowing.[p]How long would 375* take each side.[p]Dublin
    BTW. Thx for the advice.

    dublin:[p]Typically, 1 1/2" fish steaks are done in about thirty minutes or a little less. How did your shark come out?
