    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

  • damn steven. En Papalote? very nice. That's an awesome way to cook but I love stripped bass with just EVOO, Salt and Pepper as well. Grill it skin side down raised direct (400?) until it starts to flake. i alwasy pull mine when the meat is still a little transluscent as i hate overcooked fish. i would much rater go med rare than any degree over done at all.

    Give this a try sometime bud! It picks up some smoke through the parchment.

    I copied an egger on this idea. Raised grid, on lemons or limes, some Paul Prudhomme "Fish Magic" rub and some Fischer & Wieser Mango Habenero sauce.

    Go for a blackened Striper on CI-  Here we did Striper, Salmon, & Halibut.  If you have a salt slab, that is a good way to do it as well.  I have found straight grilled with evoo & Montreal style seasoning works well too-  Hard to go wrong with Striped bass.  Just make sure to cut out/off the blood lines-  Good luck!

    Check out my book on Kamado cooking called Exclusively Kamado:

  • lay out some foil and put about 1/4" slices of onion enough slices to lay your fish on. If the skin is removed(i prefer mine removed)Rub skin side with olive oil & lemon juice. Lightly salt & pepper the skin side then sprinkle lightly with old bay & dill weed. lay the skin side on the onion. Repeat olive oil, lemon salt & pepper on the top. I go heavy with the old bay & dill on the top. The amount is personal preference. Pour just a little water in the foil, about enough to cover onion, tent foil and cook until done.

    Are we talking fresh water? If so be sure to soak in ice water and work out, with your thumb the blood down the center of the filet. Change water and ice often. If your talking sea bass ignore everything I said.

    I am assuming we are talking about neither. 

    Salt water Striped Bass or Rock fish... not sea bass.  Is that correct OP?

    If so I have a great recipe for Striper Cakes

    Striped bass from the Ocean.

    Going on the Egg tomorrow evening. 

    Little Steven - looks great - too much work for a week night cook though.
