Picked up some sockeye from Costco yesterday for dinner tonight. Trying to decide if I want to grill or bake in the oven.
But that got me thinking about the three main methods for salmon on the grill:
1. Foil packet (sealed)
2. Foil tray
3. Direct on the grill
I don't really have a favorite and have great memories of eating fish done with both methods. But I guess if I had to pick one, I'd take direct on the grill. Cooking in a foil packet is probably an easier way to not overcook and keep the fish moist. But I also think that it's not all that much different from doing it in the oven. Direct on the grill feels more like you "grilled" it. If that makes sense? Foil boat/tray is my choice if direct on the grill isn't an option.
What do you all like?
I'll ping the official PNWFF Camp Chef @Jerry Daschofsky because I feel like he'll have an opinion here.
EDIT: I realized that I shouldn't have said "foil wrapped" since I meant "foil tray". So I've added a "foil packet" option as well.
