Fill the gap between the net and barrel walls with glowing coals for even heat.

Prepare the sturgeon by securing it inside the grill setup with a metal rod.

Baste the sturgeon with a mixture of lemon juice, olive oil, and crushed garlic to keep it moist while grilling.

Grill the sturgeon over the coals until cooked to perfection, ensuring the juices are preserved with a metal tray underneath.
