| Rub
extra virgin olive oil on both sides of the flounder.
Dust
with white pepper, cracked black pepper and sprinkle sea salt
lightly on both sides.
Place
a thin slice of lemon inside the fish, on top of the backbone,
and on top of that put the crab stuffing. I just mash up a crab
cake from the seafood section of my grocery store or seafood market.
Place a pat of butter on top of the stuffing, and another thin
slice of lemon on top of the butter.
Sprinkle
chopped green onion (stem) on top of the stuffing.
Build
a small fire on one side of the Weber. When the coals are gray
and ready to cook, place the flounder on a piece of heavy duty
aluminum foil on the other side of the Weber from the coals. Place
the cover with the vents in the top of the Weber open and above
the flounder and allow to bake. The temperature will remain constant
inside the Weber at 300 - 350.
Check
the fish after 20 minutes to be sure the flounder is not cooking
too fast. Two flounder should take 30 - 40 minutes total. Remove
them from the grill when you can flake off the meat with a fork.
Serve
on plate with your sides and dress the plate with cilantro or
parsley. A cold white wine is almost a requirement.
