I usually think of anything but halibut as a garbage fish, but I think I need to try some black cod.

I normally think of halibut, other than cheeks, as about my last choice.  I prefer tuna, true cod, salmon, black cod, cabezon, ling cod, rockfish, sole and a whole host of others over halibut.  Cheeks are another story though.

That's pretty much what I consider garbage fish.

Ya' know it isn't bad either poached or steamed too and with rice it is so quick and easy to make dinner fit for a king that way.

Yep, Black cod is one of the best fish to eat. Well known in good restaurants in the PNW. Sablefish is another common name.

When it comes to cooking or taste, you could compare it to halibut or ling cod. I'd describe halibut as firm and dense with large flaking flesh and ling cod would be a lighter, smaller flaking flesh.

As for the black cod meat, it is amazing. Very light flesh with a lot of omega fats. It has an exquisite mouth feel.

If you have some black cod to cook, don't f#ck it up by doing to much. Poach, sear or sous vide it and keep it simple. You can thank me later.


Also, yes, I said exquisite mouth feel just to sound ridiculous. Doesn't mean it's not true though.

The fish just went on the grill. I'm in WA D.C. And will be serving 600 plates of blackcod and marbled chinook salmon tonight. I'll post some when it's finished cooking.

You could have just used my back yard in Kennewick instead of going all the way to DC. My mouth is watering waiting for the final pic's.

Busy busy, I just finished cooking. Also ran into this guy, he said our chinook collars were the best food he had all night.

Yes that is Keith Coburn he runs the Wizard. The blackcod is super popular at this event, we have tons of people telling us they wish they could find it in the stores.

My buddy used to bring back burlap bags full of blackcod when he was a captain for Western Pioneer.
