Beautiful grouper for dinner....would love cooking suggestions! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />

Grouper is great fried in a beer batter, perfect texture for Fish & Chips! serve with Malt Vinegar and S&P and fries, of course...

Do you have a beer batter recipe?

I have had the most unbelievably good results with this recipe from Emeril- everyone who's tried it just went crazy over it. We used Halibut but I'd imagine any nice, really fresh fish would be fabulous.

I'm sure others will have great recipes too... I'd consider grilling that grouper & serving with pineapple mango salsa(with jalapenos!). YUM!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" />

Here's a good one for Fish & Chips, my favorite (came from a Guiness cooking website, sorry forget which one?)
also works really great if you use Blackfish (Tautog):

•2 lbs of cod (or Grouper) cut into large sections
•1.5 cups all-purpose flour plus about 1/2 cup for dredging the fish
•1 bottle of Guinness Draught
•1/2 cup of whole milk
•1 egg yolk
•1 TB of kosher salt and black pepper
•1/2 gallon of canola or peanut oil

Mix the flour, salt, pepper, Guinness, egg yolk, and milk into a bowl and whisk to combine.
(note: I like to add about a tsp. of rubbed dried thyme to this mixture).
Place in the fridge for an hour to let everything come together.
Fill a stock pot or a dutch oven with the oil and place a thermometer in the oil. Bring the oil up to 365 degrees.
(I use a candy thremometer, as meat thermometers only go up to about 190F)...

While the oil is coming up to temperature dredge the cod pieces in flour and set on a plate.
When the oil gets to 365 degrees dip the floured cod into the batter and then carefully place the cod into the oil.
Fry a couple pieces at a time so you don’t lower the oil temperature and crowd the fryer.
Cook the cod till done (about 5-7 minutes).
Once it is done remove from the oil and drain on a rack or paper towels.

Serve with Malt Vinegar, salt & pepper, and/or Tartar Sauce...
Do your fries the way you like to make them...
personally, I lile Oreida Crinkle Cut Fries (or Tater Tots), done in the oven!

Or blackened and grilled. You probably already have most of the spices on hand for the rub:

3 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons ground red pepper
2 tablespoons dried thyme
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon sugar
