Here is a simple salmon recipe that’s quick to prepare but tastes great. You can literally whip it up while you are starting the grill.
Alaska Salmon with Copper River BBQ Sauce
Created by Bruce Hiebert, owner of eastern Washington’s Patit Creek Restaurant, this mild, celery-based sauce fits Alaska salmon perfectly.
Cured and Pecan-Smoked King Salmon with Hot Sauce
The key to preparing salmon this way is to make certain that your smoke is rather cool, about 100 degrees. If it is warmer, decrease the smoking time. This recipe takes a fair amount of time, but most of that is spent waiting rather than working. The selection of sauces served is up to the cook, so feel free to experiment. A horseradish sauce will work also. The salmon can also be served on bagels, as pictured here. Note: This recipe requires advance preparation.
