Redfish fillets with scales left on one side. Two fillets per fish with scales left on. You can also use Red Snapper and Sheepshead , any fish that has thick scales will work.

Put fish on hot grill. Baste with melted margarine or butter. Cook on gill for 20 to 30 minutes. You know that you are done when fish flakes off with a fork.
