Cleaning them is rather simple once you get the hang of it.
1st Make sure the critter is dead. A freshly caught shark can get very grumpy and cause bodily harm if you try to clean and steak it while it is still alive.
2nd Take a sharp knive, starting from just under the chin, and make an incision all the way down to the anal port.
3rd Thoroughly remove any internal contents and then rinse the entire inside of the carcass.
4th Place gutted shark on ice for at least 1/2 hr prior to getting to the next step.
5th Place the shark on a sturdy surface and begin to slice inbetween the spinal segments and cut all the way through. this will yield the maximum amount of steaks per shark.
6th Follow any of the recipes from our recipe board or any of your own that you may have.[cool]
