Excellent product, a little bit bigger than I expected, enough space to grill about 2-3 pieces of fish. Hand wash only- don't like that I cannot put it in the dishwasher. It doesn't lie flat on the grill so it takes about extra 1-2 minutes per side to cook the fish. Has an easy open tab, always wear oven mitts when using this product to turn or remove the fish from the basket.

For a 15-minute pre-heated 425 degree gas grill on medium flame:
For 8 oz. of thick salmon: 7 mins. per side...
For 8 oz. of swordfish- 4:15 per side.
Walleye 6 oz: 4:15 per side.
Perch or Bluegill 3 oz: 2:30 min. per side.

Half way thru each side of cooking- I switch positions for even cooking and no burning of the fish.

I am a fisherman-with 9 fish Ohio awards so I cook a tremendous amount of fish. Want to preserve your catch for over a year with no freezer burn on your fish?

Date the bag on the outside with a permanent marker before it gets wet. Rinse fish off and put them in a gallon size Ziploc or Hefty bag that is filled 3/4 of the way up with 3 shakes of salt in the water. Fish must be below the water line in the bag- you should be able to get about 10-14 small fillets in each bag. Place in freezer leaning up against something with the zipper side up.

This is a wonderful tool for all Fish! I purchased this for my husband who loves all kinds of fish. It is great!

Thank you!

This product works very well and holds three good size pieces of fish. Easy to turn on BBQue. Handle sticks out when lid of BBQue is closed, but that works just fine. Washes easily....not dish washer safe.

The basket does everything it claims. However, had I envisioned how long it actually is, I would have looked for something else. Problem is, it won't fit in the dish washer! I'd love to see them incorporate a break-away handle, making it equally as easy to clean, as it is to use. I'm going to take the baskets over to my McGiver buddy to see what he can come up with.
