Sockeye coated with Jamaican firewalk and mikes hot honey and grilled up with some fresh shishitos.  It was just a little strange grilling direct on the stock grate at the firebox level without any accessories, I guess it's been a while since I pulled everything out.

    That looks GREAT!

    Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

    That looks delicious!! I could eat salmon 8 days a week! Not familiar with shishitos  but they sound good. I'll look for them, but around here, that'll be a challenge. 

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    @Carolina Q Do look for shishitoes at farmer's markets. They are just a little hot. I blister them on the stove and add a tad of great olive oil and Maldon. In the big city you pay big bucks for them.

    High end grocery store may have them, or padron peppers, very similar.  Trader Joe's usually has shishitos in a cello bag.

    Best shishitos i have ever had was at momofuku.  What did you put on yours?  Would love to replicate something like that at home.

    Hahaha, thanks, but where do I find a farmers market? I'm sure there must be one here somewhere, but I don't know of one. Certainly not in my little town. Oh well, maybe habaneros!

    These were not my best shishitos.  Tried something different this time, but I think I actually need to combine old and new.

    Normally, I toss them in a screaming hot wok with some sesame oil to quickly blister them and then toss in a little soy sauce, dash of fish sauce and some dried Thai chile and garlic, finish with a sprinkle of salt.

    This time I misted with evoo and grillled, then dusted with a mix I made of ground dried onion, garlic, sesame seeds, nutritional yeast, touch of cayenne and a few other spices.  They were bland.  The spices had the flavor I wanted, but the peppers needed the sesame oil and soy.  I also like how they turn out in the wok better.  Maybe the next round will be what I'm looking for.  Maybe I'll pick up some Bragg aminos and try that too.
