Recipe of the Month: Grilled Bluefish on Cedar Plank

 Bluefish get a bad rap in that they are a bit "fishy" but if you know how to prepare them they can be
delicious! Here's an age-old recipe for grilling Bluefish.

The key is to prep the Bluefish!  Immediately after you catch them, bleed them by cutting their gills and then put them on ice. When you get home, filet them off the bone and skin and cut out any dark meat. Place them in a bowl of buttermilk overnight.

The next day:

Soak 4 cedar planks in water for one hour, remove and rub one side with olive oil

Baste both sides of fileet with lemon juice

Sprinkle with salt and pepper

Get grill hot at 400 degrees

Lay filets over the cedar plank and grill for about 5-7 minutes

Remove from heat.  Thow filet's away and eat the Cedar planks.
