I've never seen it in a store to buy. I'm sure you can but I haven't looked that hard.

I think it's a bit harder to find in these regions. I'd give a go at grilling it, though. Probably waste $100, but, hey, could be fun.

You know me like that.

About 25 years ago (shit I'm old) I spent a month at one of those outward bound things in southeast Alaska. I hated fish when I left but wh n you're burning 5000 calories a day kayaking you eat what you can. We'd catch King salmon almost everyday and it was good. Cooked it about 20 different ways but mostly just over wood. Spoiled me as most salmon tastes like crap now. But Copper is good. Found a place that will ship some wild from where I was but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Hy-vee will have it Matt. Maybe Kroger, can't remember.

Thanks, Squirrel. I will check both.

Not sure they have it yet I just buy it when I see it and I shop at the Kroger on 40 or hyvee in Davenport as only possible places I would have gotten it.

Quad Cities...representin'...

You still in the QC? If so, ever visit the fish shop next to the old Menard's in Davenport? I've seen the Copper Salmon there when it's in season. Good place.

I live east of Geneseo in Bureau county but am in cities at least once a week. Haven't been to that fish shop, I'll have to check it out, thanks for the info.

Having BBQ chicken tonite, burgers last nite.

Did some chicken hind quarters for a late lunch/early dinner...put the screws to them for a few minutes and then gently finished them over indirect heat while basted with Cookie's BBQ sauce.

I am about to throw a pork tenderloin on the grill. It's been marinading in soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, canola oil, Bulleit bourbon, garlic, brown sugar, ginger, and black pepper for MANY hours.

Grilled asparagus that are coated with olive oil, salt, and pepper. When they come off the grill, I will hit them with some garlic butter and lemon.

Sat night Burgers and corn on the cob
Sunday Mustard Chicken shish kabobs with red and green peppers and onions
Steak and baked potato

All 3 nights sat out on the deck and enjoyed the weather as well. Glorious weekend.

Not time or skill for smoker so did a pretty good job with ribs Saturday evening. Used a nice homemade rub and wrapped in foil. Baked low for 2.5 hours in oven. To the gas grill after that for 15 minutes with Sweet Baby Ray's for finishing. Low skill and effort but delicious nonetheless.

Elections have consequences.

That's how I do my ribs. Dry rub, wrap in foil, and cook on indirect heat on the grill for two or two and a half hours. Remove the ribs from the foil, and sauce them over some direct heat. Perfection.

Recently marinated some boneless, skinless chicken thighs in toasted sesame oil, soy sauce, hoisin sauce and ground pepper. Then grilled while basting with a sauce of minced ginger, brown sugar, and soy sauce. Served with yellow rice (chicken broth, shallots, garlic, turmeric) and wilted spinach. Good, low-calorie meal.

Also grilled some skirt steak last night. Marinated in pureed chipotles, freshly squeezed citrus juice, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper). Great dish.

Midge, I used your skirt steak marinade again on Saturday. It was a hit with our guests.

Was trying to figure out what to make for dinner today since I'm home and the wife had to go back to work...then I see this.

The grill is warming up as we speak.

Glad to hear it! I've recently increased the amounts of molasses and chipotles to get more of the smoky-sweet vibe going, but the ingredients work in just about any proportion.

I did the same thing. My wife made a mango, avocado, onion chutney, which balanced the heat perfectly.
