    We had fun shopping for our charcoal grill, Red Snapper, and Mesquite chips. Pure joy and finger licking good experience eating Red Snapper prepared with Emeril's receipe. Thank you Emeril for a delicious and fun meal.

    Made this tonight and went over quite well even with people that don't regularly eat fish. The whole snapper makes for a good presentation, but if I ever do it just for my family, I think I will use snapper fillets to make it cleaner/easier.

    My grocery store did not have scotch bonnett peppers, so I used 2 jalepenos, it gave a nice heat. Also we didn't have mesquite chips, so we used hickory chips and it was great!

    Took other review's advice to cook down left over marinade for topping fish on the plate - great add.

    Served with mango salsa and quinoa pilaf.

    This fish was excellent. The marinade infused fantastic underlying flavors. The only thing I did differently was to add a little mesquite spice along with the other ingredients and bake it in the oven at 400 degrees for 25-30 min. (the snapper was only about 2 lbs.. I will try it as intended as soon as I get a chance. Wonderful meal.

    I tried this one evening with my husband as a "something special" for our date night at home (5 kids. Excellent! A real gourmet restaurant-quality meal and it's so easy to make. Don't change a thing. Note: Render down the left over marinade for a light sauce with scallions to place the fish in when plating. Very satisfying yet not too heavy. Thanks Emeril!
