Lurker.....my grouper was a full filet. And it wasn't actually stuffed. There was a layer of crab stuffing underneath the filet with the filet placed on top. I actually liked it that way and as I said, I really liked the light cream sauce that encompassed the entire dish (was served in an oval shaped baking dish rather than a plate). I would definitely order again. And yes....the bang bang shrimp is a favorite of ours.
