I just rubbed this 1.3# slab of wild caught Coho salmon for tonight's supper. The rub was simple of equal amounts of dark brown sugar, stone ground mustard and bourbon! Added was a few shakes of dill weed, salt and pepper. Letting it sit in the refrig for a few hours to mellow. For a twist I'll use a can of beer in a pan for moisture and then some tarragon to sweeten the smell.

As much as we love salmon I don't know why we don't have it more often!

    Nice Ron. Hold the grill for a bit I'm on my way.
  • Hang on there Flpoolman, we live alot closer and can be there in about 30 min. Looks delicious Ron. Of course we had a little tag along last time we bought salmon in the way of a live worm. :ohmy: Kroger says they are always in wild caught fish. We the public usually don't see them. YUCK!! Hope you eat before seeing this.

    Thanks for the heads up, Jim/Shirley! Guess it will be supper by candle light as I can't tell my squeamish Pat! Actually this came from Dixon's and has been in my freezer for 3 months so I hope any passengers won't be noticed! I've never heard that before with salmon, but wild fowl - yes.

  • On another note, Jim said to let you know we took our lump back to GFS. They took our name and we are supposed to get a call back about the lump. Hope they do and will bring back the Royal Oak.

    That rub/marinade is currently my favorite! The tarragon sounds like a good adder. Were you talking about directly on the fish or in the beer?

    Shirley, glad to hear Jim did. If more people did that GFS would get the point. I, instead just quit buying from them. Jim's method was a better attention getter!

    I just add 1 T of tarragon to the beer and some water for the olfactory benefit that it seems to lay on the fish along with the alder smoke. Complex I suppose but I THINK it has all come together for our tastes for a few years now.
