These Bacon Wrapped Halibut Cheeks make for a quick and delicious appetizer for your next cookout. Halibut cheeks just may be one of the best pieces of fish you can find and everything is better wrapped in bacon.
Par cook the bacon by frying until just beginning to brown but still pliable enough to wrap around the halibut cheeks.
Wrap one piece of bacon around each halibut cheek and secure with a toothpick.
Liberally season with you BBQ rub or seafood seasoning.
Cook over indirect heat, on your grill or smoker, at 300 degrees. Flip every 5 minutes. Remove when the fish reaches an internal temperature or 130 degrees. The halibut cheeks should be opaque throughout. This typically takes under 15 minutes, but cook times can vary.
