I just wanted to post some pics of the results of my I farking hate fish thread from yesterday. I started a new thread because bigabyte killed the last one with his remotely transmitted fish sammie.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions on the fish and the preparation. I ended up with a pretty small piece of salmon, although my wife looked at it and said "that's a big piece of salmon". :noidea:

Nice ribeye for me with SnP, Chicken with Plowboys Fin and Feather for the kids and I also dusted a little bit of that on the salmon. It's good stuff if you haven't tried it.

Turns out I need to remember to use a spatula instead of tongs when flipping fish. This one broke in half on me. The wife said it was good and we even found out the daughter likes salmon and the boy prefers steak, just like his old man. :-D

For the record the frozen taters turned out just fine, pretty good actually, coming off of the grill.

Have a weekend everyone!
 
Looks like it all came together well, and learning some new tastes is what it's all about.

PS - you usually don't have to turn salmon
 
Nice cook, that all looks good. I am not a fan of fish though.

Whew, I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Yeah, I didn't think I did but I'm kinda obsessed with crosshatch marks. They make me feel good inside. :becky:
 
Yeah, I like grill marks too.... But you can do some fancy decoratin' with salmon.

That salmon looks great thirdeye!

I have another fish question, does raw salmon freeze well? It's on special here next week and my wife suggested getting some for the freezer.

I prefer not to, but if you can get the fillets with the skin on, and you have a vacuum sealer it will be fine. The skin is wonderful protection. All the outfitters in Alaska ship your fish home that way. They claim 1 year of freezer time. I claim 6 months.

One other tip, cut off the tail section (it's not the same thickness anyway) and if the fish still has the belly on, slice a strip off of it, leaving yourself a rectangle. The belly meat is thin, and very oily. I make jerky out of the belly strips or heavily season and grill it a good long time... like into the 180*'s.

This would be couple of decent sides.... and the next photo shows them trimmed up. Feel for any bones and pull them out before freezing. The main section is perfect for freezing. If you have never had pan fried salmon, use the tails for this (skinned removed of course)

Use a very light sprinkling of corn meal fish fry, and season the fish as well.
