No, no, no! Not good at all if you follow the recipe. Ruins it by too much essence. Do not roll your scallops in it. Maybe sprinkle a bit on and it would be good. I usually always read reviews beforehand and if I had, I wouldnt have rolled the scallops in spice. Too salty and too much. Cant taste the scallops or the bacon. Gross!

Take the "essence" and grind it to a fine powder. Then, lightly sprinkle it onto the shrimp or scallops. VERY lightly. I'd even go so far as to say only on the top and bottom.

NOTE: do not use the entire batch of seasoning on your scallops, I think that is where several people went wrong. These turned out so perfect. My fiance wants them on the menu during our wedding reception week for our guests! I used maple bacon from costco, A very light coating of the seasoning...just enough to flavor it. Then save the rest for your next batch of fish, chicken or more scallops!

Yea I'm not crazy about essence seasoning either, nice n easy touch is instead of grilling, heat some oil in a pan, toss in a little bit of red pepper flakes to get some flavor in the oil and sear them quickly, add some fresh herbs (whatever you like as soon as they are done. Yum.

OMG!! The essence is so hot you can't taste the scallops OR the bacon. If you follow the recipe you better like the heat more than the food or you will have wasted a lot of money. I love to cook and I will try almost anything. I have now tried this and won't be trying it again. In this case...less is more. A little butter, salt and pepper would have been perfect.
Sorry Emeril. :(

I preped the scallops at home and grilled them on the beach, they were all the rage. Quick and easy to do.

OK we did these after rolling whole assembally on the bacon grease and broiling in an already pre heated cast iron pan then took off skewers and put three scallops on good hot rolls with tarragon Mayo.

Scallop Bacon Sliders...... Trust Me they will be on a bar/restaurant menu soon......

Been making these since forever. My original recipe after cooking serves these in a shallow dish with a quarter to half inch of hot quality maple syrup. Easy and Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy. Great presentation for any special occasion. Use Sea scallops not tiny Bays.

Unbelievably delicious!! I assembled them the day before and kept them in the fridge overnight. Then instead of grilling I put them under the broiler for about 10 minutes. They were amazing - better than any I've had in even the best restaurants around the country! My whole family rave about these all year long. I now make these every year for Christmas since I know they will be a huge hit. Thank you Emeril!
