Harry seems to be gone and with him not posting political BS, I dont

I hope. So, Truce?
Why not - I'm in.

I will not post any more political BS if y'all dont. B'sides, it's
getting boring. It is mid-summer, somebody must be boating.
Yeppers.
In order to agree to a truce, one must be a participant in the
conflict. I don't fit that, but have to admit I have made comments.

So, yeah, truce. Lets talk about boats. A hell of a lot more
interesting and a lot more fun. And seeing as a lot of us may be
living on our boats soon, we need to start a recipe file, too.

Take two aluminum throw away baking pans and fill the bottom one half
way with dry pine needles.
Put shell fish on the needles and punch holes in the top and bottom of
the pan.

Put directly over a charcaol fire (gas works too). Expect many of the
pine needles to burn during the cooking process.

After the shell fish opens, let it cook for a short while and then
serve and eat.
The shellfish takes on a most unique smokey taste that is wonderful.

I don't like clams, but I've done a lobster this way after par
boiling.

I've also had a variation of this with slightly moist pine needles.

Why Pine needles? Taste? Could you use Apple or Hickory? Hey Loogie!
What do you say bud? Can I do it???

Yes, absolutely! You can buy cedar planks that work very well too. I use
hickory chips, and oysters doing it pretty much like Tom said.
