Re: cooking Amberjack

Atlantic waters produce wormy AJ on almost every fish...smaller the better for "cleaner" fish. Worms were sent to Gainsnesville for testing by a local Capt I know well and there is no harmful effect if you can stomach the thought...most of the medium size (28 to 36 inches) have worms in the tail area only and they are very visable looking like cooked speghetti in size.

I cut (and inspect) the shoulder meat into 2inch steaks and grill in a fish basket (Lowes $9.95) while basting (sp?) with lemon, butter, garlic and our favorite seasonings. Turns out great if not overcooked...never had any body leave some on the plate!!!
