I caught a large mackinaw today. I’m concerned that cooking it whole might not work out right. If t was trout size I’d throw it in the bbq whole wrapped in foil. Am I better off filleting it instead?

Steaks? Cut in half and cook? Really depends on what you want to cook with it and cooking method.
I'd still season the whole thing, wrap in wet paper, then wrap with foil, and bbq it.

Oven baked salt crusted with a lemon burre blanc is my favorite way to serve lakers.

I guess I should check to see if it will fit in the BBQ. :smt007

Now that I think about it... It’s bent into a U so I could fit it in my ice chest. It will be tough to fillet unless I can get it to lay flat again.
