    Grilled Tuna

    Had to get it from the store as our local fishery didn't put out many this year. However I made this work out OK...

    Grilled up some asparagus and corn with it.

    I do cast iron for tuna. Get the skillet up to about 600 degrees and just watch it cook to where you want it. I like about a 1/4 in. of the tuna seared.

    That's the way I usually do it. Get the pan hot and bounce the fish quickly. It took more time and effort to light the charcoal and get it up to temp than to cook the fish and clean up afterward. I will go that way from now on.

    A local grocery store had it on sale for $6/lb. I got a few 7 pound chunks, sliced them into thick steaks and vacuum packed them.

    Not a pork chop. This is about a 7lb chunk. I get them this way and slice them into 1.5" steaks. Each is about a pound and makes a good dinner for two. I grabbed 3 of these and vac packed a bunch.

    A marinade I like for tuna: Olive oil, old bay seasoning, lemon and lime juice. Marinade the tuna for 20 min and grill.

    I wonder what smoked tuna is like. I tried smoked salmon and it was stupid good. Im not even that big on fish that tastes fishy and I loved it.
