I thought barracudas frequented the Southern Hemisphere.

West Africans smoke them for use in soups and sauces. Smoking protects the soft flesh from disintegrating in the broth and gives it a smoky flavour.

@geoff-jowett Geoff; have you tasted it? I'm curious if it has a smoked tuna consistency.

When I lived in Florida a friend and I scuba dived almost every weekend. We routinely saw sharks and barracuda. It was the latter that demanded our attention. My friend, Monte, spear fished and shot a large one that we ate. They taste very much like Spanish Mackerel. We didn't smoke it but the similarity to mackerel would still be there.@geoff-jowett Geoff; have you tasted it? I'm curious if it has a smoked tuna consistency.

been a while Jack, very very expensive but reasonable availability over here. Most top seafood restaurants have it. My recollection is it was delicious.@geoff-jowett Geoff; have you tasted it? I'm curious if it has a smoked tuna consistency.
