Ingredients




1 large salmon filet
brown sugar or real maple syrup
salt and coarsely ground pepper
garlic

Preparation

1 Leave salmon whole or cut into serving size portions. 2 Sprinkle salmon filet with brown sugar or real maple syrup. Season to taste with salt, coarsely ground pepper and garlic. 3 Place filet on the grilling plank, skin down. 4 Place plank and filet on a preheated grill and close lid. Cook filet for 12-15 minutes per pound. The plank will smolder, creating smoke. That’s what gives the salmon its wonderful taste. If flame occurs, douse with spray water bottle. 5 When the salmon is cooked to your liking, serve it at the table on the plank. Place on a cutting board or platter and serve by sliding a spatula between fish and skin.
