Sturgeon!

Our local fish guy just got some sturgeon in, and it is apparently a high quality batch. I'm embarrassed to say (as a native of the PNW) that I've never actually had or cooked it.

There are a couple of old posts on it, and they mention treating it like a pork loin. But does anyone else have any experience with it?

Treat it like halibut, it is very good. I'm over in Spokane and we get it here on occasion.

It’s a dense meaty fish very neutral. My fav is smoked.. so good! Maybe my favorite smoked fish of all.

Sweet. Hot or cold smoked?

Also, you familiar with Kerby's fish? If not, you should follow on FB. They will sometimes deliver, are local family owned, and regularly have a stand up on OB HWY. They have great seafood, dungeness crab, reasonably priced. They are pretty psyched about the quality of sturgeon that they currently have.

I’ve never personally smoked it but I think the people who’ve given it to in the past would’ve done hot. Would’ve been their style. Are they the ones with the crazy bus? Might have to try them out.

Forgot... you’re welcome to borrow my Little Chief smoker if you need

It is a bus, often on westside highway, big sign that says 'dungeness crab'. Not too crazy...Just got some awesome albacore from them

Sturgeon are a family of fish that includes the Atlantic and Pacific salmon, brown trout, rainbow trout, cutthroat trout and even the mighty oroboros. They have been around for hundreds of millions of years and are a staple of most freshwater ecosystems.Sturgeon are some of the largest fish in the world. Their streamlined body shape allows them to swim at high speeds for long periods of time. In fact, they were once so fast that they were able to outdistance dinosaurs who lived much earlier than their modern counterparts. I have made my mind to hire custom academic writing services to write a complete amazing essay about this topic to publish it for further knowledge.
