Stainless Steel Fish Basket from @cavetools

If you're a constant  visitor of this blog, you will know that I love seafood (shrimp, fish, lobster, etc.)  I grew up in a coastal area in the southern part of the Philippines so fish was something that we have in the table  almost everyday.  When I came here in the States, I miss  the fresh fish that I used to eat from back home.  Over here, I can only buy frozen ones from the store and it's not the same.  But over time, I got use  to it.  Having  frozen  seafood available is better than nothing.
I receive this fish grill basket from Cavetools and love it because it makes  grilling and cooking fish not messy.  This fish basket is available in two sizes, small and large.  I got the large one because I like  grilling milk fish sometimes and they are often available in   big sizes.
I like that it can be easily open and close due to its intuitive locking system on the side (shown below).    It is  dishwasher safe so it is easy to clean.  The large size  cost $28.99  via amazon .  You can buy it with 15% Off by using this  code  L8WIFQPU upon checkout.
During summer time, I  love grilling salmon and swordfish steaks.  I don't always have  swordfish  but I buy it once in a while when we go to the Asian  store in Pittsburgh.  Another fish that I like is milk fish, we call this kind of fish "bangus" in the Philippines.  
Our grill ran out of gas so I just cooked the milk fish in the oven.  I love that you don't have to worry about your fish sticking to the grill.  Clean up is easier too since you can just  put the  fish basket in the dishwasher after  you're done cooking.  
I love the fact that even on winter times, I can still eat  fish without making the whole house smells like fish.  This grill basket will help me  cook it without so much mess.  Thank you Cavetools!

I love fresh seafood! My husband and I grill seafood year round and this basket would really come in handy. I love that it's stainless steel and that cleanup should be a breeze.

That looks great! We love to grill fish, but it can be so difficult to do. We've been talking about getting a fish basket, and this looks like a great one.

We don't have one of those fish baskets, but it looks like a useful tool to keep on hand. My husband loves to grill. A basket like this could come in handy.

This looks awesome!!! We never made it out to go fishing this summer but hoping to be able to soon, I need to look into getting one of these.

I am not big on seafood myself, but my father loves fishing and this would be a great Christmas gift for him. I know he like grilled fish so it will be a good gift.

This looks perfect for cooking fish. It definitely would make it a lot less messy to make.

I am not a huge fish lover but would totally try this. I used to fish back in the day and miss it. So this would be great to have!

Bella said...

I don't cook a lot of fresh fish but this would be a very handy device for those who do. Great price on it too!

My husband and I love seafood, but grilling it is not easy. This would really be a big help for grilling.

This basket is really versatile for grilling fish and meats. I hope that it's available here in the Philippines. We used the regular grilling with stand.

I would LOVE to try this Sis to grilled a perfect fish. We loved the tilapia fish the most.

I love eating grilled fish too as I feel light even after a meal.

Dhemz said...

yay! How neat. I want one for sure!

First thing that came to mind, "is it easy to clean?" Then I read the whole post and saw your feedback about it. Good to know that! We love grilling fish esp when the colder season comes. It's nice to eat fresh, healthy food without the fat by grilling. And in doing so, we need grilling accessories like that for the fish :)

Eileen said...

Grilled fish is the best! My only issue when I grill fish is that it sticks to the grill. My fish ends up looking like it was hit by a bomb. I like this fish basket you got. It sure makes grilling a whole lot easier and cleaning up is easy. Maybe this weekend, I can grill some tuna belly. That is, if the weather permits. :)

I was able to find similar to this in Citi Hardware though not really the same style but the concept. I haven't bough it since we don't grill that much and we have the typical one at home but lo, I didn't know that using this is much more convenient. This is pretty much easier to use whenever you plan out for outings. I should have bought one! Anyhow, I'll definitely give it a go whenever I go back there.

That's a really nice tool for grilling fish! I like to have one of it.
