Sockeye Salmon


One day only  special at the market yesterday was Alaskan Copper River sockeye salmon at a reasonable price.  Pictured is about three quarters of a pound that was barbecued last night.  It started flesh side down over hot coals, then was quickly flipped and basted with a mixture of butter, ketchup, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, dry mustard and lemon juice all whisked together.

We added some oven roasted redskin potatoes with garlic and rosemary and a small salad to round out a meal.

Beverage of choice for this meal was a couple of Left Hand Brewing Company Saw Tooth Ales out of Longmont, Colorado.  Great summer beer.
