Fished on June 19th with Yani and Mickey. No YT around so we went deep .....

Fish Sandwich

Fresh Rockfish Boneless Fillet
Tomato
Lettuce
Caramelized White Onion
Tarter Sauce
Fresh Roll

Prepare Tarter Sauce first and set aside to let the flavors infuse.

Mix together:

Mayonaise
Dill
Lime Juice
Relish, (I use a homemade zucchini relish made by the lady who gave me the BBQ recipe)
Ground Pepper
Rice Vinegar
Sour Cream

Heat oil to a high temperature
Prepare Fillet

I use a beer batter recipe that I have been working on for thirty years, I think I finally got it perfect.

Mix together Flour, Salt, Pepper, a little Garlic Powder, Dried Dill, Cayenne Pepper and pinch of Baking Powder

Separate flour mixture 3/4 in one bowl and 1/4 in the other.

Add egg and ice cold beer to the 1/4 mixture and whip until foamy.

Dip and cover the fresh fillet into the dry mixture first. Then dip and cover the floured fillet into the wet flour mixture and drop carefully into the hot oil. Cook until golden and flip until the other side is golden. Take out a place on bed of pepper towels and pat the excess oil off. Build Sandwich. Eat the best tasting fish sandwich ever.

Fish On, Chris

Wow, it's gonna be hard to top that one.

But, I'll try...

The fresh rockfish sandwich looks killer! Batter looks light and crispy.

I tried Chris's BBQ sauce recipe for YT. It would not have been one that I would have ever come up with myself but wow, this recipe is really good.

In my trial, the only thing that was not perfect were the onions. They were still uncooked when everything else was ready. Maybe pre-cooking the onions a bit before stuffing them would be something to try.

Yellowtail with barbeque sauce... who would have guessed that this would be a good choice. Thanks Chris for making my belly happy tonight.

T-Rex, Thank you it was very tasty. Your logs look fantastic.

dsafety, I thank you for trying this recipe and posting about it. It really is extremely delicious and it probably one of my favorite (new) ways to have fish. I will for sure do this recipe again with my next yellowtail.

Iceman , umm looks like I better step-it-up. I look forward to your recipe, if you make it in time.
