BILOXI, Miss. – Summer is here, and it’s time to bring out the grills.
Learn how to cook seafood on the grill with this month’s Adventure Quencher, “Barbecue with Benefits: Cooking Healthy Seafood Outdoors.”
Former food editor Jim Matthews of Pass Christian will demonstrate how to prepare and grill a variety of Mississippi seafood dishes at the Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve.
Matthews was the food editor for the “Gulf Coast Fisherman” magazine and has appeared as a guest chef on the New Orleans TV show, “Alec’s Kitchen.”
Some of the dishes Matthews will prepare include redfish on the half-shell, bronzed fish and grilled shrimp kabobs. These recipes and others are included in his soon-to-be-released cookbook, “Barbecue with Benefits: A Guide to Healthier Grilling and Smoking.”
