Was awesome. Thanks for the reply. I ended up just pan frying it on a cast iron with clarified butter and olive oil with seasoning. Was awesome. Thanks for the reply.

My main piece of advice would be to not use the finger poke method to determine doneness. In my experience it does not firm up like other fish/meats. Considering the months since your blog on shark; hopefully you have found some ideas. -Mike In all of my limited experience with shark (mako, blacktip), we have always seasoned and grilled as though it were steak.

Be sure to oil your grill grates well. I don't do a lot of pan frying, so I have a bias toward using the grill. I'm sure it would be good pan fried too. I also prefer fish cooked to medium. Nothing worse than an overcooked piece of fish.
