salt-roasted/pan-roasted Explanation: Some options. "A la brutesca" snails are placed face down on a layer of salt and either roasted or grilled in the pan or even cooked using other burning material such as straw, as in some cases I have found online. You could also say something like "pan-roasted" but it depends, of course, on whether you know exactly how these are going to be prepared. If you don't know, then perhaps something general will work best. Here's a link to help you: http://www.recetasdecaracoles.com/recetas/caracoles_a_la_bru... |

in salt crust Explanation: I would say "in salt crust", as "in crust" is quite common with recipes baked in oven, where an ingredient forms a crust (cheese, salt). |

"a la brutesca" (barbecued on a stone tile covered with burning straw) Explanation: This is a consensus answer. There is straw and a hot stone tile involved. There were hits for "BBQ" but none for "grilled". I'd kept the original inquotes and a dd a description if space allows.
