Would you recommend it for grilling fish filets too or mostly recommended for whole fish?

We've used it for both, and it works perfectly. Spray with Pam or coat with oil; we're enjoying fish more often now that we can grill rather than fry it. KDJ

I have grilled only filets, will never grill a whole fish. It served it's purpose, however, one has to be extremely careful when handling this basket (use grill mitts) due to the high temps. I was using pot holders and didn't adequately cover my hand, I burned my thumb when it slipped off the pot holder.

I use it almost 100% of the time for filets. Not sure if it would be great for whole fish, depending on the size of course. I love mine and highly recommend it. Just be sure to spray it liberally with Pam for Grilling or some kind of non-stick oil for high heat cooking to make clean up a breeze. Happy fishing, cooking, and eating to you and yours.

This makes the best blackened fish. I do it all the time on a gas grill, so a propane burner should be just fine.

I actually use a full tank as I have in on a stand. A friend if mine bought the same thing and used the small canisters that most campers use. Love this grill.

I would say yes. Although I have blackened fish indoors, I have never used it in such a way. If your concern is the fish, I think it would be excellent (maybe even do a whole side). If your concern is heat tolerance, the iron that this is made of is definitely thicker and heavier than what most grills' burners or grates are constructed of. I want to say propane grills can hit 500-600 degrees tops, and I have a feeling that wouldn't touch this.

Usually 5-6 pcs of hand size filets. Cooks evenly, you may want flip when fish sort of curls on edges. Crunchy and delicious.

I think you will be more restricted by the clearance between your product and the grill surface. A whole chicken, trussed and centered properly, clears the grates fine. You're not going to be able to rotisserie a large Baron of Beef though.

To be honest it depends on your situation. The sear station is not like on other grills that I have owned that is separate from the other elements. I used it a lot on my Charm-glow to get a nice sear on i my meats. However the sear station on the Weber does not appear to work that way or at least I don't use it that way. I just use it as an extra element to maintain consistent heat overall. The side burner is nice to have as I have used it alot when cooking beans and sauces. If you are on a budget then I would say skip it. However if you have the cash get it its nice to have and not use than to not have and need. Come to think of it now that I am typing I did use it once. Hope this helps.

You cook with it. No need to season meat or seafood when you place on the grill

You could grill fish or steaks but not roast them. It's a very good griddle. Go for it

Depends on what you mean by "clean." If you want it to keep its clean chrome out of the box shine upon repeated use, very hard. Plus, the wire mesh that expands and contracts with the fish tends to catch a sponge and tear it up a bit when you get to work on it. However, if you are willing to accept that grill items like this will become cured like a wok with repeated use, becoming brown, then cleaning is a very straight forward affair of hot water and soap and a bit of light scrubbing.

no experience with fish tanks - but it works great when working with grout, thin set, Portland cement products. keeps you from getting skin poisoning - and have decent grip in the fingers

of course! I've cooked frozen fish filets too. As the griddler gets older, it loses its nonstick capacity, so it's important to spray with nonstick coating before cooking.

I just got done cooking on mine, I,absolutely love that grill. And I cook mostly on high, then hot dogs, sausage links, and chicken on low to medium. Trust me you will enjoy it

It doesn't get all over the food. So long as you start with a clean grill you shouldn't have to worry about cleaning while cooking

Yes, but it will be more of a grilled fish with smoke flavor, not truly smoke-dried. You do not use a whole lot of wood chips in this, it is only to enhance the flavor while cooking. As long as the fish fits on the cooking plate, it will be fine. The plate is non-stick coated to help keep the food from burning to the cooking surface and it works really well.

I used the grill cover for two seasons (leaving it on an exposed outside grill) with flare-up and really hot coals. It finally decomposed. So with that in mind, and I personally don't cook fish on an open flame, I would say that you can decide for yourself. After all you didn't really ask a question/

I tempered it well on the advice of another purchaser before I ever used it to grill. I clean it when cold usually just before I use it again. Wire brush and some cooking spray keep it non stick and free of rust.
