Caught him this morning on live pinfish. Day maker early.
The light wouldn't cooperate for the photo.

I got a little over four pounds of filets. I cut them into eight ~8 oz pieces and vacuum seal and freeze the ones I'm not eating in a couple of days.
Grouper is great on the grill rubbed with a little olive oil and salt and pepper.
We like a squeeze of fresh lime before serving.

This and hogfish are soooooooo good!
We use a milk bath and Progresso Bread Crumbs, Italian Style. Lightly pan fried in a little butter. A little spray of lemon or lime. Tators & peas.
Also, if available, fresh pico de gallo, for making fish tacos.
OR
Your favorite beer batter fried.
Grouper is a light flavored fish, unlike the cold water species. It does not need to be flooded with flavor like shoe leather or beaver tail or moose tong or bear ears or salmon.. :D

JJ- Throw some Panko in there for a little extra crunch.
