These delicious maple salmon fillets are just the right amount of sweet and savoury. Use your Big Green Egg with some alder grilling planks to imbue your salmon with smokey, woody flavour that will wow your guests.

For this recipe, you place your salmon directly over the coals, on either a grill or grilling planks, exposing the fish to the direct heat of the coals.

Served on burger buns with a crunchy coleslaw salad, this is a super easy dish to prepare and requires little effort to assemble but it’s a real crowd-pleaser!
