BBQ Salmon
This BBQ salmon is sweet, smoky, and perfectly grilled every time. Just two ingredients for a fast, flavorful summer dinner!
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 4 (6-ounce) salmon filets
- ½ cup Homemade BBQ sauce, or storebought
Instructions
- Prepare the grill by heating it to 450-500 degrees Fahrenheit. You will be grilling the salmon directly on the grill, so be sure to scrub your grill grates clean and lightly grease them.
- Brush 1 tablespoon of the ½ cup Homemade BBQ sauce, on each 4 (6-ounce) salmon filets.
- Once the grill is up to temperature, place each filet, skin side down, on the grill. Close the grill and cook them for 3-5 minutes.
- Flip the salmon, meat side down, and cook for 2-4 minutes to get grill marks on the filet. The internal temperature of salmon should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit, but I remove the salmon from the grill at 140 degrees Fahrenheit. It will reach temperature as it rests.
- Remove the filets from the grill and place them on a plate. Let them rest for at least 2 minutes to finish cooking.
- Brush the remaining BBQ sauce on each filet before serving. Serve with grilled vegetables.
Notes
Store the cooked salmon filets in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
I don't recommend freezing this BBQ salmon, storing it in the fridge or enjoying it fresh is the best way to go!
