<p />I finally dug three of those big scallops out of the freezer: the bag of seven weighed just over two pounds. The cook was a simple one: for flavor EVOO/butter, smidge of Tsunami Spin and 1/2 small lemon squeezed. The cooking method was a back and forth combination of grilling on the lower grid and dunking in the pan, upper grid, for flavor. My daugther and I cheated and ate half of one before dinner. We both found them sweet and delish. [p]For us, the turbinano sugar and other spices in the Tsunami blends well with the sweetness of the scallops. They were a great match for the ribeyes![p]125_2593.jpg[p]The last four may go quicker, now that we had a wonderful sample. Almost forgot, the cast iron pan is only seven inches in diameter....had ya thinking really big! T

    <p />Sandbagger,
    Those look fantastic! Since they were that big, were they just on the tough side? Doesn't look like it. I'm lucky to get 10-12 per pound scallops.
    I can get some decent Prawns. Having a pretty big cook out at parents Sat. night. I had some nice Prawns but those scallops look great. Even my dinky ones might be better.[p]Mike[p]Sweet pic of the ribeyes as well.

    Car Wash Mike, that's a cool trick with the shrimp and bacon. [p]No, the scallops were very tender. I made sure I did not over cook em! [p]Have an enjoyable cook out.
