  • (1 pinch) Real Salt
  • (1 pinch) Freshly Ground Five Peppercorn Blend

Directions

Equipment Used:

10" x 6" x 2" Himalayan Salt Block

Non-Contact IR Thermometer 

Preparation: 

Step 1 - Pre-heat the Himalayan Salt Block on the stove or grill for 15 - 20 minutes before grilling. You are looking for a surface temperature of 350 - 400 degrees. A non-contact IR thermometer is helpful to check the temperature. Be sure to read all safety information relating to proper heating and handling of the salt block before using. 

Step 2 - Dice up the Papaya (1/3rd used for recipe), Mango, and the Kiwi and place into a mixing bowl. Next slice 1/3 lemon and juice into diced up fruit. Then add a pinch of salt and the honey and mix to incorporate. Cover bowl and place into refrigerator

Step 3 - Coat salmon fillet with olive oil and freshly ground five peppercorn blend on both sides

Step 4 - Coat surface of salt block with a light coating of olive oil, then place salmon fillet on top, skin side up and cook for 5 - 10 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 3 - 5 minutes until your desired doneness is achieved

Step 5 - Assemble the dish by first laying the romaine lettuce leaf on the plate. Then slice six 1/4" thick lemon slices and place on lettuce leaf. Next squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the top of the salmon, then add the tropical fruit chutney to complete the dish! Serve and Enjoy!!!

Pit Master's Tip: Make sure you cook your salmon all the way through. I recommend using an instant read thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 145 degrees to verify its done.


Enjoy!

There are a lot of delicious food pairings out there, and this one is no exception. Lamb brings such a unique flavour to any dish, and pairing it with the sweetness of of the sweet potato is absolute perfection.

Mom's Biscuits and Gravy Recipe

I was asked by my boys to share a recipe with you. The one I selected, Biscuits and Gravy, takes me back to the days when I had all seven of my boys under the same roof. Though those days are gone, and my boys are now grown men with families of their own, I’m reminded of those special days when I'd hear the words "is dinner ready yet?!?!" echo in the background more times than I can count.

Herb Buttered Beef Tenderloin with Holiday Rice

If you've had beef tenderloin before, you're fully aware that it is a delicious and tender cut of meat that is often the star of many family meals! It is the most tender cut of beef on the cow - the same cut of meat that Filet Mignon is made from. Needless to say, this is a premium piece of meat, and as long as it's cooked properly, will melt in your mouth and leave you wanting more!
