Grill Instructions

Mesquite Grilled Halibut

I used my Weber Charcoal Grill for this recipe with Mesquite Lump Charcoal to give it a bit of smokey mesquite flavor. Once you get the coals burning hot, you are ready to cook.


Place the fillet on the grill and cover for at least 30 minutes. Putting the cover on the grill will cook the fish more evenly and add a bit of mesquite smokey flavor.

Check to see if the fillet is done by flaking the meat with a fork. If the meat flakes easily then the fish is done.

Once the fish is done, put your shredded cheddar over the top the fillet and cover until the cheese is melted

Once the Cheddar has melted it is ready to serve.
