Catch, Kill, Clean, Cook, Eat - BLACKTIP SHARK

Описание: Catch, Kill, Clean, Cook, Eat - Blacktip Shark.
So finally got around to doing a Shark catch and cook. It is going to be a windy weekend, so figured it was a good time to do a bit more complex catch and cook. Although we have quite a few types of Sharks, the Blacktip seemed to be the best option since there is no size limit, they taste good, and I have a good system to catch them. I headed out to my backcountry spot and drifted a live Pinfish under a float. It didn't take long to catch a nice 38" Blacktip. When keeping a Shark, you want to make sure you take the extra steps required to ensure that the meat does not go bad. Because Sharks purge their urine (urea) through their skin, you have to make sure you quickly bleed them out, remove the internal organs especially the urinary tract, and make sure the carcass is put on ice immediately. At that point, you have a wide variety of options in regards to preparation.

For todays video and because of the size of the Shark, I decided to do a couple of different recipes. For tonight, I was going to marinade the Shark steaks. I did one in a Italian salad dressing marinade and the other in a Asian Thai style. They both came out amazing.

Tomorrow, I am going to be smoking the rest and making some Shark dip.
