THE GURUS
Besides being a regional sales manager for BBQGuys, Keith Guidry has a camp on the Texas side of Toledo Bend. If you can’t find Keith, you can bet your bottom dollar he’s chasing bass. He says bass meat is the freshwater equivalent of lump crab meat. What do you think?
Disguised as a mild-mannered banker working for St. Landry Homestead by day, Curt Guillory is all guru when he’s not crunching numbers. Curt is always in pursuit of the perfect brown gravy, and he loves to cook in a black pot on his Cajun Grill. Give him a chuck roast and a couple of hours, then just watch the magic happen!
LIGHT, DELICIOUS GRILLING
This recipe for grilled tuna all but guarantees perfect results. Just remember to
get the freshest tuna available.
The corn recipe is so good that you’ll go … well, you get this idea from the name.
Grilled Tuna
The technique for great, grilled fish has two parts — dried, lightly oiled fish and a hot grill. That’s the big secret. Taking as much water off the surface of the flesh will allow the sugars to brown and create great grill marks. This is what releases the fish from the grill without sticking, while adding flavor.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Pat fish pieces with paper towels
until dry.
2. Lightly oil the fish.
3. Season with Louisiana Love.
4. Grill over a hot, hardwood fire for
2-3 minutes per side depending on
thickness and desired doneness.
