    @Doc_Eggerton - are you cooking skinless or skin on?   I ask mainly because most of your salmon cooks I see you have the salmon in a foil boat.   Just curious     

    BTW - Looks great as usual.

    I prefer skin on but cannot get it most times.  Either way I us foil just to avoid the mess on the grid.

    Understood.  What temp you running?  I believe you pull the fish when white ooze starts oozing.  Correct?

    I shoot for 180, sometimes hard to hold, and pull when the albumen begins to leak.  Makes for very soft texture.
