New to the WSM but love it. Here is my step by step and recipe:

1. Buy allot of fuel for the boat.

2. Go out an catch a few Mahi Mahi

3. Clean them and place in zip lock for later.

4. Make brine:

In bowl combine:

6 cups water
1/2 cup salt
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tbsp. pepper
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 cloves garlic crushed

5. Place all fish in zip lock and add brine.

6. Refrigerate for 24 hours.

7. Smoke at 210 for about 2 hours until internal temp reaches 175 degrees. I use apple wood.

8. Take off smoker and let cool.

9. Flake fish and pulse in food processor.

10. In large bowl combine:

16 ounces fish
1 block cream cheese
3 jalapeños - no seeds
3 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
1/2 cup mayo
Juice from two limes

11. Mix it all up and chill.

12. Eat on club crackers and slice op some jalapeños for topping

Mike, Dolphin is my all-time favourite fish... to catch AND to EET!
great photos, butt please include some of that meat on your WEBERS!

and welcome to our homestead!:wsm:
 
Ill catch a freezer full in another month or so right off the coast. Nothing better grilled with a few lemon & orange slices and butter but looking forward to this recipe for a change of pace.
 
I got to love Mahi Mahi when I was stationed in Hawaii, you're lucky to be able to go out fish fof that.

I'm with Mike. Hawaii is where I first ate Mahi Mahi and I also fell in love with it. Anytime I see it on a menu I usually buy it. Great cook and welcome aboard!
 
Here's a third Mike in the ring... like the other two Mikes (Cosgrove and Coffman) I first had Mahi Mahi in Hawaii and loved it. I get the bag of frozen Mahi Mahi at Costco (plain, not the seasoned up stuff) and either grill it and eat it as is or make fish tacos with it. Can't beat it!
 
Not to stray too far off topic by for all you Trader Joe's shoppers,
last time I was there I got the frozen Mahi Mahi burgers and they were pretty dang tasty off the grill with some wasabi mayonaisse.

Looks awesome! Will have to remember this in the summer while in ocean city , md. Usually catch quite a few of these during some time there.
