Brown Sugar Salmon

If I knew how to plank a salmon, I would plank it on a cedar board with this recipe, like they do at the Rib & Chop here in Cody. I did my best to duplicate the flavor of theirs. So feel free, plank experts!

Whole salmon fillets, or steaks
1 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. crushed pineapple and juice
1 T. chopped green onion, or fresh chives
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/8 tsp. black pepper

Combine all ingredients in small mixing bowl. Remove 1/4 c. for later. Spread remaining mixture over salmon fillets. Bake at 400º for 30 mins. Brush or spoon remaining mixture over salmon and broil for 5 mins.

OR place fish on heavy duty foil and grill until fish is no longer transparent. Brush with mixture as above to finish.
