Barbecue Fish
Use your favorite fish in this recipe .. you can't lose .. comes out great every time!!
Ingredients:
4 or 5 of your favorite fish fillets, large ones .. you want them about an inch think .. but smaller ones are great .. just shorten the cooking time
1/2 cup salad oil
3/4 cup chopped onion
3/4 cup catsup
1/3 cup lemon juice
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1/2 teaspoon pepper
salt
Wipe fillets with damp cloth. Place a piece of heavy duty foil ( cut to fit ) against the skin side of each fillet; press smoothly to fit. You want to make like a little boat around each fillet. Cover and chill.
In a saucepan, heat oil over medium heat, add onions and cook until soft. Add catsup, lemon juice, sugar, Worcestershire, mustard, pepper, and salt to taste. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes, or until thickened.
Place fish on grill, foil-side-down, 4 to 6 inches above a solid bed of medium glowing coals. It'll be even better if you can place on the hot coals, pushed to the side of the pit, some Mesquite or Hickory chunks that you have soaked for 30 minutes of so in water. I'm telling you, that makes it great!! Cover your barbecue pit and adjust your dampers according to manufactures directions. Cook, basting generously with the onion mixture, until fish flakes readily when prodded in the thickest portion with a fork. For a 2 inch thick piece of fish, if you've got one that big, allow 20 minutes. For a 1 inch piece of fish, allow 10 minutes. Serve with remaining onion mixture.
