Cooking Instructions!
In a bowl, whisk together honey, barbecue sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, and black pepper to make the marinade.
Place the salmon fillets in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Season both sides with salt.
Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin side down, and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While grilling, brush the salmon with the remaining marinade occasionally.
Remove the grilled salmon from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy!
