Little neck clams on the Egg

FlaPoolman

A dozen is an appetizer, a hundred is a meal. Nothing fancy just worked late and wanted something simple and easy so bought 100 little necks on the way home. Egg at 450, clams, in batches, on the tray and 1 stick of butter. Add a few cold ones and my heart doc is gonna hate me. Good news is I don't see him again until October, bad news is it's the week after Eggtoberfest :( :(.

100 in the bag


first batch almost open


just ate them as quick as I could take them off

I was thinking the same thing. Someone has the plates and posted photos of a steak on it recently.

Man I miss my dad. :( He would have loved the EGG.

FlaPoolman

Don't have the coffee cups but have the plates, saucers and small cups. Guess I'm giving away my age

FlaPoolman

Think it was these Mike





Lost my Dad 12 years ago and think he would have loved the Egg To.

FlaPoolman

Thank you Beli,, not bad for a quickie but I have to cut back on the butter.

BENTE

i guess it was the small cups... i just thought they were coffee cups

Your's look great to Jason. I started using pans because if took forever to burn the clam juice out of the lump.

BENTE

glad to see you still pay some attention to your "other family"

I'm just waiting on the registration to start and my wife to tell me how many tickets to buy. Last year we stayed with friends in Suwanee. Plan on doing the same thing this year.
Might bring my B&SIL and another BIL. The BIL I gave the mini to.

Good news. Wife gave the OK for a Med purchase at the fest, so I'm going home with more than I show up with.

Looking forward to seeing you and all the others as well.

Mike in Abita

That's the one I saw. Thanks for the memories. Parents are only understood once you become one.

Hmmm... interesting. I've not had a problem with clammy lump (yet), but I don't particularly like the briny residue that gets all over the cast iron grate. I'm worried that it might cause it to rust, but I do make sure to wipe it down with oil after the cook just to be safe. So far, no problems.

Looks Great! I did about 100 for our 4th of July Picnic, but I steamed them in wine and onions, and I did them in a stock pot on the stove. I would rather do them on the EGG next year

You didn't add any liquid? About how long did each batch take?

stike

a favorite cook of ours. i love butter, but it doesn't need it if you can manage to keep the broth in the clams.

good stuff

I am just loving that table,did you do that or had it done? Looks untouchable...

Wow Ross. That looks and sounds delicious. We celebrated my hubby's birthday in Vegas last weekend and ate at a fabulous oyster bar in Harrah's. They had a pan roast of all kinds of seafood, including clams, mussels, mahi mahi, prawns and more that was fantastic. I just might have to swing by the fish market and do your recipe tomorrow night for him.
