I like to use a maranade with a 50/50 mix of Heinz 57 and Honey...i know sounds weird but very good.
I also get cedar planks for cooking in the meat dept at Harris Teeter and soak then in water for 30 min. and place the salmon on the planks and on the grill at 300 until done. Usually about 15 mins or so.
I know....
i'm necro posting here........
No actually I just made a big chunk and wanted to update the thread, and thanks for the tip sounds good.
We bought a 5 pound section at the market last night and heres how I made it and how it came out.
first I washed it off really well - it had no smell at all.
I melted a couple pats of butter and poured it on and spread it around on both cut ends, used my finger.
Squeeze 1 fresh lemon over, cover completely.
Sprinkled garlic powder and black pepper generously on the up side.
Placed in glass broiler pan, mistake, next time I'll try the plank, pan needs a chisel, I'm going to try wd-40...
cooked it for about 40 minutes, it was 3 inches thick.
the ends were perfectly seared and the whole peice looked done
I cut into it but the center needed more time so we hacked off the ends and I put it back on for another 30 minutes to finish cooking.
Delicious, crispy skin, and the salmon was firm and melted in your mouth.
we have enough for a couple more meals and salads so it all worked out well.
Next time well go for the steaks instead but good stuff and thanks for all the help.
