I was having a hard time deciding where to go with this throwdown entry. I have been inspired numerous times on this website so I started taking a look at the threads I replied to when I first found this site. If anyone has inspired me with their delectable dishes it has to be Cowgirl. She takes stuff to a whole other level. I remember seeing some grilled fish tacos she made that looked farktastic...http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=90760.
So here is my attempt at some fish tacos.
Picked up a nice filet of sea bass. Lightly seasoned with kosher salt, black pepper and a sprinkle of pasilla chile powder.
Cooked on my offset at 350 with a little peach wood.
My wife made some homemade flour tortillas.
And yes the tortillas had some of this....
Served with some salsa fresca which had some fresh lemon juice in it.
And plated with some good ol' fashioned mac and cheese. Please use this pic Mr. Byte.
These came out great. The fish was tender and tasty. Thanks to Cowgirl for the inspiration.

I`d sure hit those tacos. you can`t go wrong making one of Cowgirls dishes when I first saw your post and the picture of the fish and Cowgilrs name I instantly thought of how she cooked fish and rice in her dishwasher and thought "Oh he isn`t going there is he" good looking fish taco!

Zero club members live for public ridicule! This thread makes it ok to be a bbq slut and hit them all. Of course you need like a 20 minute break in between hits.
There is some awesome Pron I think I am gaining Weight from looking @ the screen

Hey Zydecopaws and MilitantSquatter
Y'all provided the inspiration for this dish. Paul for his suicide meatball, and Vinny for his Italian Meatball recipe - which we modified a bit. Been wanting to do meatballs on the kettle for awhile now. We started with 3 lbs of ground sirloin and turkey (1 1/2 to 1 approximately), three eggs, two cups breadcrumbs dried, one cup fresh breadcrumbs, 1 tbs kosher salt, 1 1/2 tsp black pepper, 3 tbs dried Italian seasoning, three tbs minced garlic and a small onion minced. We also marinated some giant button mushrooms in eevo and balsamic vinegar. The meatballs were cooked indirect in the kettle at about 325 using some hickory for a little extra flavor. The shrooms were grilled directly, sliced and mixed in some highly modified Barilla Pasta sauce. Served over angel hair pasta and shredded Asiago with some toasted garlic buns. Here's some pics!
Uniformity - Redhot smooshed up the ingredients and formed the balls
Out of focus but you get the idea
shrooms
Just had to taste one - it was goooooood
These were pretty
Prettier still
Into the sauce
Redhot's bowl
And mine
Can't decide which for the TD yet Chris. The color in Redhot's is probably better though.
Thanks for looking!

Deguerre! Those are some fantastical spheroids! Where is my bowl?
Were any meatballs driven to their death in the making of that entry?

Only the sacrificial taster.:becky: Oh, I have to admit Redhot convinced me to do the meatballs instead of the meatloaf I had originally thought of doing, but I really had been wanting to to the balls too so...
Good call on her part. :thumb:
Chris, I noticed that the picture quality was not quite up to standards on my entry. Can you please use this picture instead. I think it is a little bit clearer.
Thanks Bob, for bringing this to my attention! :thumb:

I so wanted that too, but didn't have much to work with. Might just have to cook steak again, just so I can get some good "bites on a fork" shots.
