Whole red snapper baked in a kettle.

I had to break his tail to fit him in.

Seasoned with butter, garlic, lemon, salt and pepper. Stuffed with lemon, butter, spring onions, thyme, garlic & ginger.

Set your Weber up to roast, that is two charcoal baskets full of charcoal on either side of the charcoal grate. This usually gets the temp in the kettle to around 300f roughly.

All vents fully opened, cook for half an hour covered in foil to allow the flesh to absorb all of those flavours as they mix and start to steam.

Then open up the the foil and cook for another half an hour to allow some colour to get into your cook and regularly baste the fish in the juices. This fish was roughly 4kg's in weight.

The end result, absolutely fall apart delicious.







It wasn't me......Well maybe it was..

Wow, beautiful fish and a grate cook.  Nothing like cooking a whole fish for flavor and presentation.  Definite on the list to try and cook on my kettle.  Thanks for sharing.
