At our Farmers’ Markets, we call Black Snapper Grenadier. It is also commonly referred to as “Pacific Roughy,” and if you’re a fan of the Orange Roughy, then you’re in luck.
The name doesn’t lie; it tastes like the Orange Roughy’s smarter, better-looking, more sophisticated, Pacific cousin. We often suggest it to market customers who either aren’t sure they love fish (duh) or have children that are picky.
It is mild, flaky, and delicious. UG-LY as heck though, man––what a fish! I’m not even going to post a picture on here it’s so ugly.
In general, you can easily use any snapper recipe you enjoy for Grenadier. It has a bit of a finer smaller grain than most “Red Snapper” or Rockfish. This is part of what makes it so delicate and tasty, but it adapts to most snapper recipes just perfectly.
