Never seen it done this way. If I understand it right you fillet a crappie and leave the skin on one side then dip into egg skin and all? Sure looks good!
I like them that way too
Great way to cook them, i also spray the grate with PAM or rub with oil.
I tried that a while back and it was very tasty after I saw a post about it I think you made .
Got a Air fryer/Toaster combo recently, & sounds like a good recipe to try on it.
I've never had them that way but willing to try.
I believe he is cooking the fillets on his Big Green Egg cooker. He leaves the scales on the fillet and does not turn(flip) fillet on the grill. Eat the meat down to the skin!!!Quote:

IF your as wacky as Mac you will leave tails on them too. Many claim they taste like chips and enjoy it that way
This is a great idea that I’m excited to try out asap! Thanks!
Yes these are cooked on my egg. It’s important to not allow the coals to flare up or the scales get charred and they’re nasty. Not hard to do but I overlooked that once. They will not stick to the grill with the scales on. Easy to cook, easy to serve and easy to eat. The last ones I did I put a dollop of real butter on each fillet along with some fresh minced garlic. They were incredible.

Just wanted to clarify. Sorry if i mis read :fish
Those look YUMMY!!! I do something similar with almost the exact seasonings but under the broiler. Mama is also a fan of this, and much easier cleanup than the fryer. Cardiologist probably won’t scold me for this either.
