With such a broad diet, the Tripletail aquire a complex, savory flavor, while remaining paper white, flakey and moist. Treat the flesh as you would treat the best cut of Grouper and you, your team, and your guests will appreciate the subtle complexity of this undersung species. There is no need to overthink accompanying flavors. The Tripletail has everything you need. One fisherman has stated that, "It could be dragged behind the truck in the mud, and still taste wonderful".
