    1 c. melted butter or margarine
    4 sticks butter or margarine
    lemon pepper to season
Preparation
    Let charcoal fire burn down to only coals.
    Double aluminum foil and form around fish; allow for top to stay open.
    Cut sticks of butter into strips about 1/4 inch thick.
    Sprinkle fish with lemon pepper and lay strips of butter on top of fish placed over charcoal.
