Fish

Steak

Black Bass steak is a thick cross-cut or loin portion for grilling—white, firm, mild freshwater character. It behaves like a meaty fish steak: hot surface, short time, rest briefly. Season simply; finish with acid or herb oil. True black bass is freshwater game fish—confirm vs sea bass labelling. Doneness is judged by flake and translucency, not beef habits alone.
