I'm with Roll_Bones and Steve Kroll. I really like monkfish and unfortunately it's not available where I live now. When I lived in the Washington, DC area it was easy to get. Plus, when Buck and I used to vacation in the Outer Banks we would catch monkfish and eat it. As someone already noted, it's one of the least attractive fish in the water. Sort of the "only the face a mother could love" kind, but good eats.
What I used to do with it was to steam it lightly, then grill it and serve it with drawn garlic butter. Again, as has already been mentioned, much like lobster.
I love it and wish we could get it here.
