THE "ONLY" BBQ SALMON
This recipe is by David Veljacic a Canadian BBQ Champion. You need time to marinade the salmon overnight in the fridge. It is a fantastic recipe. Please read the review by Wayne in Vancouver -I am sure that he knows what he is talking about I suggest that you try it his way. I copied this recipe from either a Vancouver paper or local magazine. Next time I make it I will do as Wayne suggests and if that works I will rewrite the recipe to reflect his comments - Thanks Wayne

Tips:
- Ensure salmon is fresh: Opt for wild-caught salmon if available, as it's considered to have better flavor and texture. Look for firm, bright-colored flesh with no off odors.
- Choose the right marinade: Marinating salmon adds flavor and moisture. Use a combination of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices that complement the salmon's natural taste.
- Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully. Aim for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 155°F (68°C) for medium.
- Use a cedar plank: If you're grilling salmon, using a cedar plank can impart a smoky, woodsy flavor. Soak the plank in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
- Serve with flavorful sides: Grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad are all great accompaniments to barbecued salmon.
