Looks tasty and lovely plateup. I've tried scallops twice now and I just can't get over the grit. I heard diver scallops are better in that regard, but those aren't readily available without traveling to the coast.

Did the ones you tried still have the tendon attached? I've never had a gritty scallop when properly prepared.

I agree with Dylan and these came frozen from Costco. I did have to trim the foot plates on about half of them. No grit.

@Eggcelsior @bgebrent Nope, no tendon attached. Bought them the first time in Seattle and recently here in Atlanta. Both were previously frozen. Thoroughly washed them the first time and let them soak the last time. I'm not saying they were loaded with grit, but there was some present and it's a textural thing I just can't get past. They are so costly I just have a hard time giving them a third try.

Scollops are my favorite! I will be stealing this for sure. Thanks
Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

Nice cook Brent! How did you get the bacon crispy without killing the scallops?

Good question. Thin cut bacon, raised high indirect at 500. Like broiling as in the linked recipe. First time trying this on the egg. Worked.

Good to know. Mrs3969 loves bacon wrapped scallops.

The combination of the bacon wrapped scallops and the compound mayo are off the hook.

Nice job.

Thank you. I really enjoyed meeting you at B.B., circumstances and all you renegade
Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga -
Had the same question but you results prove it's possible. Something I need to try.
Thanks for posting.

On one of my trips to the beach coming up, I will be cooking some of these. The simple things make me happy! Very Nice!
I drink cheap beer so I can afford good bourbon.
