Smoked scallops have been described as delicious in part due to how the mollusk absorbs the smoky flavor "better than just about any other seafood".[1] They have also been described as having a firm and chewy texture and consistency. They are sometimes served as appetizers or as an ingredient in the preparation of various dishes and appetizers.[2] They are also sometimes used to add flavor to a dish, such as grating smoked scallop over the top of a dish to finish it.[3]
