Salmon Burnt Ends
These salmon burnt ends are little nuggets of seafood goodness. They're slow-smoked in a sweet rub and then glazed over with my maple bourbon grilling glaze to coat them in a sweet and savory finishing sauce.
Servings: 6 people
Ingredients
- 2 pound salmon filet skin removed
- 4 Tablespoons Hey Grill Hey Sweet Rub recipe link in notes section
- ½ cup Hey Grill Hey Maple Bourbon Glaze recipe link in notes section
Instructions
- Preheat. Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees F with a mild hardwood like maple, alder, cherry, or pecan.
- Cube. Cut your salmon into cubes that are about 1 1/2-2 inches and as similar in size as you can get them for even cooking.
- Season. Season the salmon cubes on all sides with the Sweet BBQ Rub.
- Smoke. Place the salmon cubes on the smoker grates, close the lid, and smoke for about 1 hour, or until your salmon reaches 125 degrees F in the thickest part.
- Sauce. Drizzle the salmon bites with the Maple Bourbon Glaze, close the lid, and continue cooking until the salmon reaches 145 degrees F (about 15-20 minutes).
- Enjoy. Remove the salmon to your serving platter and enjoy immediately.
