Twice Baked BBQ Salmon Yams :: Chef Mark Cleveland @ Ready.Chef.GO! ::

Ready. Chef. GO!

Twice Baked BBQ Salmon Yams

Chef Mark Cleveland

450 Oven or Open BBQ Grill

2 Yams (4 halves) in two BBQ Grilling Bags

2 Medium Yams, pre baked

1/2 Cup Cream Cheese, diced, room temp

1/2 Cup Salmon, cooked, smoked, canned

1/2 Cup Scallions, sliced

1-2 Tsp Rosemary Garlic Sprinkle, Everson Spices

Citrus & Fresh Herbs for garnish

Cut the baked yams in half length wise & scoop the center flesh into a mixing bowl. Leave a quarter inch of the yam intact along the skin to create a firm boat. Stir the cooked or smoked salmon into the yam along w/ the diced cream cheese, scallion & rosemary garlic sprinkle. Load the stuffing mix into the yams & use a fork to press firmly and make a decorative pattern on the top. Load two halves into each bag (on top of the parchment) & seal the bags for sale.

REHEATING INSTRUCTIONS: BBQ on an open grill foil side down, or roast in a 450 oven for 20 to 25 mins. Let rest for 2 mins before opening the bag. Garnish w/ fresh citrus & herbs. Follow all instructions printed on the Ready.Chef.GO! BBQ bag.

NOTE: Ready.Chef.GO! bags allow for excellent texture & fast high heat cooking in the oven or on the BBQ grill. The results are always succulent & tender. You’ll taste the difference. Use any cooked salmon in this, poached, grilled, sauté, etc. or use smoked or canned salmon. Large chunks & lightly cooked salmon work best.

POINT OF SALE DISPLAY: Display these beautiful stuffed yam bags w/ everything to showcase them as both side dish & main course. Stock the display w/ the salmon used in the yams, for example, fresh, deli, smoked & canned salmon options. Add more bags of BBQ fare like our dogs and corn in bags. Add all the fixings, potato, 3 bean & macaroni salads, fresh fruit salads, spice blends, yam fries & chips, lots of BBQ beverages, sparkling flavored water, beer, etc. Add relevant condiments like bread & butter pickles, relish, etc. Everything sweet and sour goes well on this display.
