This is one of the better, easer recipes I have done with salmon. It's an adaption from the little Italian gal Gadia.
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
8 lemon slices (about 2 lemons)
1/4 cup lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
1/2 cup Marsala wine (or white wine)
4 teaspoons capers

First the raws.

Simply bush with EVOO, place in cast and add wine to the bottom of the cast. Add the rest of the ingrediants to top of fish and cook indirect with lots of presimmon wood at 225 till weeping. This lower temp. really lets you get the smoke in w/o over cooking the fish.

    Good mornin,
    I like the recipe. Not sure about marsala with fish but chardonnay white wine works for me. The lemon I would save for a side garnish. Nice pictures! I'm going ice fishing for walleye but might be pullin up white bass if they move in to our area so this recipe will be put to use I hope soon. :lol:
    Thanks for sharing, I'm making a copy right now.

    225°, huh? I haven't tried salmon at that temp, but I think I'll give it a shot. Happy for you guys that the plant has room for you every day so far.

    So what' going on w/Jake again...is he cooling his feet in there? Hehe :) Just drop me a line if you have some time, buddy--I understand about the work thing.

    Wow, capers and salmon...YUM!!

    JL - absolutely NO need for you to be sorry about not posting! I'm glad you're working again man. Of course, I wouldn't be completely honest if I didn't tell you how much I missed the "unemployment beer" evaluations. ;)
