Greater and Lesser Amberjacks have a great "Oil" to the flesh. They cook up firm with a very silky texture. Wild Amberjacks are leaner than farmed Hamachi and Hiramasa, but hold up to more expensive farmed products in flavor and usability. Amberjacks are an undersung species and have a reputation for parasitic activity in the flesh. If parasites are found they are easily removed and also pose no threat to humans. This is a reputation that is not as deal breaker. Amberjack receive high heat cooking very well and marinate beautifully. Sear, Broil, Grill, Smoke.
