Hey all,it's been a long week trying to finish a deadline job,working 12 hrs a day and even 8 hrs yesterday :pinch: .I finally had time to fire up an egg today for some wild caught sockeye salmon :woohoo: We were in a hurry(gotta get the kids cleaned up and ready for bed),so I fired up the XL direct to about 375* and put the fish on.I used a little Old Bay(I need to restock all of my Dizzy Pig Rubs and Carnivore Rub) :pinch: Anywho,the weather was just about perfect for grilling,so here's some pix ;)

    Nice looking salmon, but the garlic stuffed toms + more garlic and fresh moz really grabbed my attention :woohoo:

    Looks great, Doug. Love salmon. I would love to see temperatures that low!! 80's? What's that? We've been 100+ for way too long.

    Thanks everyone.I had some alcohol induced computer issues last night and couldn't reply :pinch: Now I'm too tired to reply to everyone :blush: Anyway,I cooked the salmon direct at 375 for about 15 minutes(5 skin down,5 skin up,then 5 more skin down).It was slightly overdone,just the way wifey likes it :)
