Alice Bay Barbecued Salmon

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 to 2 pounds Vital Choice salmon fillets, at least 3/4 inch thick
• Vital Choice extra virgin olive oil
• 1 cup butter
• 3 large cloves garlic, minced
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• A dash of Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

1. Make barbecue sauce: Place the butter, garlic, soy sauce, Dijon-style mustard and ketchup in a small (1 to 2 quart) saucepan; cook the mixture over medium-low heat until the butter is melted, stirring occasionally. Set the mixture aside.
2. Heat grill to medium-low. Oil the grill and center the fish over the coals, skin side down. Baste the salmon generously with the barbecue sauce. (Optional: Use Vital Choice cedar planks to keep the salmon moist and impart great flavor!).
3. Grill the fillets, turning once, until they flake easily when tested in the thickest portion with a fork. For a fish 1-inch thick, allow about 10 minutes total cooking time. When the fish tests done, transfer it to warm serving platter.
4. Serve the fillets with with warm barbecue sauce on the side.
