It’s Snook Cooking Time!
Here at Salt Strong, we love inshore fishing.
And we love catching Snook!
It is kind of like our “Bass” of the ocean… (but more like a bass on steroids).
We just never get tired of catching them.
And although we release the vast majority of snook we catch, occasionally we will keep one in the 28 to 32-inch range (up to 33 inches on Gulf side) if we want to have an incredibly fresh snook feast with the family.
Recently, with all of the snook pictures posted on the Private Salt Strong “Fishing Tribe” Facebook Page (click here to join the private group), we have heard the following questions a few times…
“What is the best way to cook or grill a snook?”
“Are snook good to eat?”
“Does anyone have any good snook recipes they can share?”
And although there are clearly many ways to cook a snook, after years of testing out many cooking methods, this one is our favorite below.
Not to mention, it is incredibly easy to cook snook this way, and it required very little extra spices, preparation, etc.
Ingredients & Utensils to Grill Snook
The great news is that grilling a perfect snook doesn’t require that much.
Here is all you need to grill snook:
- A grill that will go to 400 degrees (can be charcoal or gas grill)
- Olive Oil
- Chef Paul Prudhomme’s Magic Blackened Redfish Seasoning
- Garlic Pepper
- The Secret Weapon… a Butter Knife
- A little slice of love…
Note: the only real preparation for cooking snook is to make sure you cleaned the snook well (no bones) and that you have the fillets cut in the sizes that you like to serve them.

Conclusion
The next time you catch (and keep) a slot snook, give this simple snook recipe a try.
As you saw from the video, it is incredibly simple, it doesn’t require a ton of preparation or ingredients, and everyone that has ever tasted our snook falls in love it (even some people that swore they didn’t like to eat fish because it tasted too “fishy”).
Finally, if you have a snook recipe or a certain way that you like to cook snook, please leave us a comment below.
We would love to hear from you and give you a shout-out if we try your way of cooking the snook in the future.
