My Experience

I love to grill salmon filets all the time winter or summer...I make it very simple, I brush it w/extra virgin olive oil, grind a little fresh black pepper on it, a little kosher or sea salt, charcoal grill it w/a little oak or maple added to the fire, and grill it medium to medium well,(otherwise it'll be too dry). If you like squeeze some lemon on it, along w/a fresh spinach salad or baby greens, and some good Oregon Pinot Gris, it makes a good meal. I also love to get fresh scallops, the big ones, and shrimp w/bell pepper, mushrooms, maybe a little yellow and zuchinni squash /cherry toms, and kebab over coal and wood again brushed w/oil...I don't like to marinade foods so much, I think it covers up the flavor of the food, instead of enhancing it like light seasoning does, along w/the flavor of the wood you're cooking on...Oh-don't forget to make yourself a big drink or have good beer handy, it always helps to have a buzz while grilling!!!
