Re: Muskie Recipes Needed
Well i dont know about musky because i never ate one. Heck i never even caught a legal size one. but i gotta agree with roscoe northern pike are probably my favorite fish to eat. the only problem is all the y bones. but they are all in a pattern and really not to bad to pick out. i have tried the two deboning methods on my website and ended up butchering the fillets, and losing alot of meat.(now my grandma could do it perfect) so i usually just leave them and pick them out later. the meat is nice and firm and has an execellent flavor. i usually put them on the grill wrapped in foil with lots of butter and onions and garlic. if its a big one (over 30 inches) they tend to get a little strong. i soak them in buttermilk over night and the strong fishy flavor is gone.
