Grilled Chipotle & Maple Glazed Salmon

This grilled chipotle, maple glazed salmon was cooked on the Big Green Egg MiniMax over red hot Jealous Devil Charcoal. Grilling this beautiful piece of salmon on a bed of lemon slices over a cedar plan ensures a juicy, smoky and perfect cook. The sweet and spicy chipotle dry rub rested on the salmon for about 30 minutes prior to going on the grill to really let the flavors meld. The last 5 minutes of grilling, the salmon was given a generous glaze of sweet Vermont maple syrup! This is a dish your people will ask you for again and again!
