Cedar Plank Salmon

January 2016 in Seafood

I've been eating a lot of meat since getting the BGE just before Christmas so fish seemed like a good idea. The Salmon was bought fresh from Costco today and trimmed up to these lovely fillets. They were in a marinade of soy sauce, fresh ginger, fresh garlic and a shallot as well as our Canadian secret ingredient maple syrup for about 4 hours. I used indirect at 400 at the dome for about 25 min total. Turned out medium well with lots of natural smoke that worked well with the marinade. Great feed.

This was supposed to be our dinner too, but the fish wasn't fresh at our store boo hoo.
