Brush it lightly with mayonaise....add a light coating of your favorite rub....grill it direct, about 2 minutes a side. If it is sticking, leave it! Let the fish tell you when to flip! Don't panic...you've got it. (and if you really feel uneasy, use some foil, but its really not necessary) If you use foil, just use some butter...no mayo.

Seabass is really easy to cook. Here's how I cook it.

Marinate the seabass in a little olive oil, garlic, chopped parsley, and a tad bit of salt for about 15-20 mins.

Then put it on the grill (since I'm new to the egg I'm not sure what temperature you would put it on, but I use the lowest flame on my gas grill). I have full intentions of trying on the egg as soon as Fresh Market has a sale.

Baste with cracked sea salt and lemon juice every 5 minutes for a total of 20 minutes. You won't be disappointed. Its done when you start to see large flakes.

Sea bass has its own wonderful, rich flavor so you don't really need to do much with it.
