Grilled Pomps & Fried Blues

Whole pomps, gutted, washed, dried.
Sea salt, garlic powder, lime juice and olive oil, generously covered inside & out.
Wrap in aluminum foil and grill over high heat for 10-15min per side depending on size of fish.
Skin peels right off and the meat lifts off the bones.
One of the most delicious fish in the Gulf.

Good looking Pomps !! And you are absolutely right about the blues !!

I filleted a couple of smaller Blues last summer and then felt bad about all the ones I had thrown back. Fried some of it and grilled some with blackening seasoning for tacos. I thought they were pretty good.
