Ingredients for Beer Salmon

- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces

- 1/2 cup beer of your choice
How to Make Beer Salmon
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Create an oblong grilling packet using a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil (approximately 12x18 inches).
- Place a 6-ounce salmon fillet in the center of the foil packet.
- Season the salmon generously with 1 teaspoon garlic salt and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Dot with 1 tablespoon of butter, cut into small pieces.
- Top the salmon with 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion.
- Pour 1/2 cup of your favorite beer into the foil packet, ensuring the liquid level is just below the top of the salmon fillet.
- Carefully fold the foil over the salmon to create a sealed packet, ensuring no steam can escape.
- Place the foil packet on the preheated grill. Close the grill lid and cook for approximately 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillet and your grill's heat.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
