ps. do hurricanes void the cookshack warranty??

The CS will withstand it,if you can find it.

Hi Prisonchef, Tom, et al-

I found my archived images of my "first Cookshack mullet cook" and will send them to Smokin for him to post in the appropriate Seafood spot, or here or both if he cares to.

I would be careful not to overcook the mullet in the smoker, and not to put in to much wood.

Also, if you want to get a little crust on the fish- put it under your oven's broiler just before serving.

There used to be a place here in Tampa called the Mullet Inn. They made the best mullet I ever tasted. In retrospect, I think they may have brushed a little BBQ sauce on the surface before smoking them. I also put some of their sauce on the mullet when eating them. They also had mullet roe (in season) that you could get smoked or fried. Man, was that good! Now, apparently, it all goes to Japan because they are willing to pay out the gazoo for it.

If you have access to the roe, you might consider smoking that in the CS!.

I'm waiting for the storm to do it's thing here in Tampa. It's really nice right now. The predicted course of the storm, and hopefully it's decreased intensity as it gets on land will mean Tampa Bay dodges the bullet again! We surely have been lucky. I live on a tiny island that would be inundated if a strong storm surge comes up the Bay.

Tom, good luck to you.
