Charcoal Companion Ultimate Nonstick Fish-Grilling Basket
I bought this some time ago, but just used it for the first time today. I cooked a salmon fillet which was probably not ideal, but heck, it should have worked better than it did. Three gripes: the salmon skin stuck to the wire, the wires are rather far apart, and the basket is hard to open when it is hot. Because of the skin sticking, it took a significant effort to get it clean. I took it at face value the statement on the front of the box that the device had a `Non-stick basket' and didn't coat it before using. Next time I'll spray it with oil before I use it. Because the wires are far apart, one's fish needs to be fairly big. If the skin hadn't stuck, the fillet probably would have fallen through the wires. Finally, as to releasing the baskets clasp, I burned myself opening it. I started with thick dish towel because the clasp is rather narrow. I then put on two oven mitts and struggled opening it almost dumping the fish on the floor.

If you're like me & you PREFER to grill with a whole fish vs. the portioned off cuts then you will LOVE this gadget! Here's the trick Open the basket. Line the inside with parsely, rosemary & bay leaves. If you want to get 'fancy' you can weave the rosemary & parsely branches/twigs into the grates of the basket. I don't but you certainly can! ;)Take your fish (like a yummy snapper), rub-a-dub the fishy with garlic, olive oil & parsley (the "holy trinity" of mediterranean cooking) and of course, salt & pepper. Slide your fishy into the herb-decorated basket & cook away!
How fantastic to flip the fish without it ripping & falling apart!!! Happy Grilling!

Skip this. I purchased due to the excellent review on America's test kitchen. The wire clip that holds it closed broke off the first time I used the basket. Nice idea, poorly executed.Back to Amazon it goes.

I like how the handle is removable. But can be difficult to reattach at just the right angle to flip the basket on the other side.Still, I haven't found a better grilling basket.
