Ingredients
- 4 4-6 ounce salmon fillets
- Salt and Pepper
- ΒΌ cup maple syrup
- 4 Tbsp Butter melted
- 2 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
- 2 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
Instructions
- 1. Sprinkle a generous amount of salt and pepper on each salmon fillet.
- 2. Combine the glaze ingredients in a small bowl and brush the fillets with the glaze.
- 3. Set up your grill or smoker to cook at 400 degrees. Place a cast-iron skillet in the grill while it is heating up.
- 3. Grill the fillets at 400 degrees skin side down directly on the grill grates for 10 minutes.
- 4. Pour the remainder of the glaze in your cast iron skillet, and then carefully place each of the salmon fillets flesh side down in the skillet. Cook for an additional ten minutes.
- 5. The salmon is done when the internal temp of the thickest part of the fillet reaches 145 degrees.
Notes
Cooking directly on the grill grates first before transferring to the cast iron skillet firms up the fillets and gives them a little bit of char.
You can cook the fillets on the grill grates for the entire time, but they will have a slightly milder flavor.
