Striped bass is incredibly versatile. It has enough flavor and meatiness to take exceptionally well to the grill (especially thicker fillets), where the natural sweetness of the fish is balanced by the pronounced smoky char. But it can also be sautéed, broiled, pan seared, oven roasted, or even steamed.
While striped bass fillets are the norm, you might want to consider getting a whole fish to grill, roast, or bake in a salt crust, if, that is, you can find the right size (about 3 pounds for two people or 5 pounds for four), and have no trepidation about the eyes or removing the meat from the bones. Many people swear that cooking fish on the bone gives the best flavor and most delectable texture.
