Chimney Tuna Loin Recipes

Steps:

• In a non-reactive bowl combine soy, honey, and wasabi powder. Reserve 1/4 cup for dipping sauce. Roll each piece of tuna in this mixture to coat evenly. Marinate from 1 hour to overnight. Remove the tuna from the marinade and discard the marinade.
• On a plate, lay the sesame seeds. Roll the tuna in the seeds to evenly coat.
• Fire up the chimney and top with a well-oiled grate. Sear for 15 to 30 seconds per side or to desired temperature. Remove to rack and rest for 3 minutes. Cover with foil or plastic wrap to achieve carry over cooking. Slice thinly and serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Grind all dry ingredients in an electric spice mill; then blend in small bowl with olive oil and set aside. Next, pierce tuna loin completely through with a small wooden skewer to create starter holes for the dowels. Then very carefully slide oiled dowels through the tuna. Carefully rub spice mix on tuna and refrigerate until ready to toast. When the mood is right and the fire is roasting, toast the tuna over an open fire until medium rare (about 15 seconds per side.)

Steps:

• Rinse loins and pat dry. Cut loins into 6 to 8-ounce pieces. Sprinkle a liberal amount of kosher salt on all surfaces of the albacore. Coat fish with light brown sugar and work kosher salt and sugar in all crevices. Smoke the albacore at 170 degrees F for 2 1/2 to 3 hours using a combination apple and oak wood chips.
