re: Official OS BBQ/Grilling Thread

Would that hinged fish cooking thing (not sure the name) work on any fish?

I currently have some grilling trays I spray down, but the fish still can stick to it sometimes.

Would be nice to find something that lessens the chance of fish getting stuck to some surface....

Its a Fish Grate or Basket and I dont see why it wouldnt work on any fish.
Some fish is flakier than others like sole, catfish, flounder and tilapia , but I think as long as the fish is nice and cold (not frozen) and you spray it down well with cooking oil and make sure your grill is nice and hot, you should be fine. My grate has a locking ring so it wont fly open and lose the fish.

As I always tell everyone, LEAVE IT ALONE! Let it cook. About 5 min per inch thick on each side.

Here is a good resource for grilling utensils

Thanks for the site, I'll check it out! We're doing more fish (which is great), and I think this will help.

What kinds of fish?
How do you normally cook it?
What kind of seasonings or marinades?

Yeah I'm looking at it now. I was going to just grab one from Wal-Mart, but I really want to look around and get something quality. Gonna take my time and make sure I get the right one. It will definitely be charcoal though.

Now I'm in Country Club Hills which is only like 5 minutes difference. We're practically neighbors man lol

Fr the love of all things Holy, only grill on a Weber. Best made, best customer service, and rock solid, amazing grills.

I second this

Let me know if you have any questions.

I've got one already. Should I be looking at a specific size if I want to do smoking on it as well? I know that its possible to smoke on a coal grill, but I'm not sure if there is a particular type I need and I dont want to buy a standalone smoker at this point.

First, let me just say, I dont agree. I dont HATE Webers, I just think they are limited in features ability and design. But thats MY opinion. I never tell anyone not to buy... whatever. Each is to their own.

Secondly, I dont think it really matters when it comes down to it.
I literally can cook and have with a coffee can and a window screen.
You just need to find what suits you and your skill set and preferences.

HomeDepot there on Halsted or Cicero has a charcoal grill with a smoker chamber.
I'll link it here if I can find it real quick.

*EDIT

This is the one my buddy just bought last Summer.
Its inexpensive and does the job. They have others like it that range in higher price.

Spring is warm weather, baseball, and GRILLING. Can't wait. I too want to upgrade my arsenal, haven't done much fish so I want to venture into that arena.
