To Barbecue a Shad

Split the back of the fish, pepper and salt it, and put on the gridiron with the skin down.

Baste the upper side of the fish with butter; brown a little piece of butter with a small quantity of flour, and when brown add pepper, salt and a little water.

Dish in a tureen.--Mrs.J.W.S.
