Seahawks Salmon

SeahawksEGGHead

To ring in the start to football season, I thought I'd go with a little Pacific North West favorite.  Too easy.  While bringing the egg to 500, rinsed the sockeye salmon, patted dry with a towel, brushed a light coat of olive oil on there and dusted with my ubiquitous Memphis Dust.  Flesh side down for 4 minutes, then flip over on to the skin side until internal temp reached 135.  It was... excellent.  Best salmon I've ever made... of course it's the first salmon I've made on the egg.

Broncos & Huskers Beef.

Bronco's beef.  Yep, looks tender enough.  Pretty sliced up too... looks very tasty.

SGH

The salmon looks excellent. It's one of my favorites off of the egg. Outstanding job!

Ah hell it's a pre-season game. We can still be cordial. Screw that eat it SeaChickens! >:)
JK. No not really. Hehehe

As a Packer fan I can never forgive the Fail Mary, but I have to admit that the salmon looks pretty good.

@NPHuskerFL‌ I'm an Iowa fan and a Seahawks fan! So... That Salmon looks good and your brisket sucks! )

NPHuskerFL

@Philly35‌ well at least ya got the SeaChickens. )

@Philly35‌ I do love my Thanksgiving raised direct Hawkeye. )

That Broncos/Husker beef looks like it's had better days! This is all in good fun, of course. I'm doing a brisky on Sunday and I hope it looks half that good and I'll be happy. Even though it looks like you took that picture fifteen seconds after slicing!

@Philly35‌ ;-) always in fun. Oh ok. I'm a bit intense I admit it. I can get a lil Cray Cray.

It's all fun, and it's always about the food.  Fail Mary was pretty bad, I'll admit.  Looking forward to hosting the Pack in the Clink this year.  Gonna have to plan something special for that day.

Should be a great game. It's a shame that Seattle has gotten so good. I'd love to come see a game there just because I love the area but it's way easier to get decent seats when the local team sucks. Went to a Packers Dolphins game in Miami a number of years ago where the crowd was split about 50-50 at the beginning and more like 90-10 in favor of the Packers by the end. That was a good time.

@SeahawksEGGHead , salmon looks great. Did you do raised direct?

SeahawksEGGHead

I did raised direct at 500 degrees.  The salmon, which was just under a pound, totalled about 9 minutes grill time.

Salmon with cheese?

Legume

@SeahawksEGGHead nice cook.  Love Salmon cooked with a bit of char or crust on the top and that looks perfect to me.

SeahawksEGGHead

@Legume Thanks.  I'm pretty sure I used your salmon discussion as a basline for mine, so thank you for that.

The dusting could have been more uniform, but overall it was incredibly tasty.  The wife will let me do this again, whenever salmon goes on sale.

@Eggcelsior Salmon with cheese... doesn't sound very good, I'm afraid.  Maybe a Packer Brisket?  Something a Seahawk can smoke, cut, and devour?

@NPHuskerFL Broncos had a good drive with their starters last night.  Had they only played like that last February, would have made for a more interesting game.
