Awesome looking fish!

Ross, you did it again! I haven't had dinner yet, now I'm drooling!
I just saw this on "FOOD TV"... I think it might have been on "tripple D" with Guy Fieri?

That fish looks amazing!

Thanks Tom

Ross
Thanks Keale

Ross

Phantastic Rossz!

Great looking fish - gotta try that!

I agree with the others, your fish look fantastic.

I'll have a double portion of that! Great dinner!

Man that looks good, going to have to try it.

Most excellent as usual Ross. How do you clean the salt block for re-use?

Was thinking the same thing... Looks great tho Ross!

cheers

Wow!:clap2: That looks amazing!:cool:

Looks tasty, ROss!

How salty was the fish? Also curious about the cleaning like a few above.
Very tasty looking!

Thanks Guerry, just rinse off with water it cleans up easly

Ross
Thanks Smiter, the fish was not salty it came out just right

Ross

Oh yes, I like this a lot!

Wow! Looks great!

That looks really good Ross. If you don't me asking how much do the salt blocks run and how long do they last

I paid $15.00 for the one I have,
I'm sure it will last a while

Ross

Outstanding technique there, definitely a show stopper to pull out when you have guests over. Thanks for sharing!
