I had the pleasure of breaking down a 40lb Cubera Snapper.
I forgot to take a pic of all the portions, but I got 26, 7oz portions out of it. Tomorrow the body will be turned to stock, and the head will be roasted and picked for soup. All trim got turned into spiedini.

Also, look at these teeth man!
Slide four belongs on a tinder profile lmao

Anyway, $4 a pound.
Are you going to make broth from the carcass like we do with a turkey? What will you use it for?
Don’t forget the cheeks. Those are the best part, and they also don’t leave the kitchen.
Skills on display
Wait until you find out that’s a small one! 🤣
You forgot the cheeks, they’re the best part, like scallops only more tender.
That looks like a fun time.
You did that super well. Killer looking fish.
