Amber Jack is one of my favorite fish to eat. Some would disagree but I would choose this fish over many. It is not a light flaky fish, but is like tuna, very dense and meaty. I like to grill it and prepare a sauce to brush on it while it is on the grill. The sauce is mainly melted butter, old bay, lemon juice, and rosemary. Throw those steaks on the grill and keep brushing them with that mixture and they are a true crowd pleaser.
Most of the ones I have speared (Va./NC. have been thick in worms around the back-end. Something to look for before eating it raw.
