Loin

Black Bass loin is the thick upper back muscle—the densest, most uniform section for steaks and searing. Expect white, firm, mild freshwater character. This is the premium centre for high-heat cookery. Cut medallions or leave whole to roast. True black bass is freshwater game fish—confirm vs sea bass labelling. Avoid cooking past the point where moisture leaves the grain; lean to moderate, clean water matters for flavour.
