Change of Dinner plans for Monday night,
Long time contractor friend of ours texted these photos on Sunday of FRESH caught Half Moon Bay King Salmon, asking if I wanted some???
Some??? Be right over.

He also provided a bag of Salmon Collars, and if anyone has a "Stone Cold Lock" BBQ Salmon Collar recipe, please post for all to read.
My wife is with her 90 yr. old Mother who had a stroke 2 weeks ago, so I am a bachelor for now.
Knowing Dominick's cooking skills, I asked if he BBQ'd the salmon, I'll bring over dinner.
He and Linda gave it thumbs up,
here's dinner last night.

Dinner was a light salad, FRESH tomatoes with garlic & oregano from Dom's garden, OF COURSE with EVOO, and a splash of bubbly, a remnant of his recent 75th BD.
We ate our fill, and with leftovers for Salmon hash sandwiches.
I had to fight their dog, Zoe, for the crusty Salmon skin, Zoe won out.
Alan, on your next 5 day Long Range trip, consider bringing Dominick as the Guest Chef, you won't loose any weight! Seriously!
Wayne
crud, i guess my invitation got lost in the mail!!!!
Good job on that Salmon Dominick, the only thing I'm going to criticize on is the grill marks. Next time give them a quarter of a turn and you'll get some nice diamond grill marks on them ;) ;D.
That's what it's all about, sharing good food in good company ;).
Give my best to Linda.
I licked my monitor and now my tongue tastes like dust!

Nice brace of Kings!
Great company sharing a delicious meal.
What more could you ask for?
Wait a minute! ...was there dessert? ;D
Great looking table setting there, you even got the Weber grill in the pic. ;D

That's funny. That is one of those miniature grills in the side yard next to the retaining wall. I'll talk to the high school yearbook photographer to better compose those shots. ;D ;D Dominick

Sal, I had to make sure the rice pilaf did not burn. I was paying attention to the garlic bread at the same time. I had to run outside to the grill and then back again. Salmon goes from just right to overdone if one's timing is off. But I will do the diamond marks next time and send you a photo.
Thanks Daron. If you lived closer, you could join us. I owe Bryan a spaghetti and meatball dinner. Dominick
A friend with Salmon, is a friend indeed... Yeah it doesn't rhyme, but its truth none the less.
Dang'it but that looks like a tasty meal, nice job cooking.
Drooling like one of Pavlov's dogs.

Paisan don't you dare, that made the shot perfect!!! ;D
That looks good Dominick. Never trust a skinny cook! I trust you Dominick!

What are you trying to say Bob?? Was that a shot at my corpulence??? :-\ ;D Dominick
In case you need to look that up as I did. Corpulence means fatness! :D
I have been getting pretty Corpulent myself! ;D
By today's standards (i.e. runaway obesity) Dominick's so-called "corpulence" barely raises him above the category of "skinny". ;)
~A~
I just hope I am as Corpulent and active as Dominick when I reach his age. He is my Hero! ;D

Mine too, Dominick, nothing personal but I can't resist poking a lawyer. :D I'd tell you some of my lawyer jokes but Alan would probably ban me! ;) ;D No joke the food you prepare actually looks edible. Bob
I love to poke at him, he's one of my favorite target here ;). Crassus or not ... I love that man.
Dominick and myself as well, wouldn't look right thin, well, that's what we tell ourselves ;D.
You know... sometimes a grilled piece of salmon is just a grilled piece of salmon!!!
Nice night.
