BBQ Fish?

[Forest]

I bbq fish all the time

Dolphin, swordfish, trout, shark, salmon, tuna, what ever i can find locally you can throw on the grill

some of the lighter fish like trout and catfish you may need to cook over aluminum foil as they flake up and break apart on the grill

but the more solid fish you can throw right on the grill

also smoked Kingfish or any other kind of macrel is awesome

makes great fish dip

Smoked fish, especially salmon, i'm ok with.

But when I think BBQ, I think rubbed meat then soaked in sauce....dont like it dry. Somehow that just doesn't sound good to me with fish.

It would really depend on what your definition of barbecue is then. Most of us consider 'BBQ' to be pork, chicken or beef that has been marinated or rubbed with seasonings and then slow cooked, usually over wood, or smoked, and then often served with bbq sauce. However, to me, the word 'barbecue' means to cook outdoors on a grill of some kind, in which case, barbecuing fish is one of the best, if not the best, ways of cooking it.

Hammer is correct. The word "Barbecue' can confusing, do you mean it to be used as the cooking technique, the sauce and the utensil to cook in. When I moved to Seattle it was the strangest thing to hear folks talk about the "barbecuer". Hell, in the south that is the person that does the barbecuing...not the grill.

But, I did develop a taste for BBQ'd salmon. I cook it at my house all the time in the oven when I can't get to a grill(apartment dweller). I cook it with lemon and butter and garlic until it's almost done, then I turn on the broiler and add some homemade BBQ sauce to finish it. I like mine wet too.

BBQ'd shrimp are another thing, yummy.

I may have to have some tonight!

I forgot about BBQ shrimp....definitely what I consider a BBQ flavor and quite tasty.

BBQ has different definitions depending on region too. Here in Georgia, BBQ typically means pulled pig meat in sauce.

Go to Texas and it means cow, typically cooked in huge portions.
