Charred Sugar Rub Crusted Alaska Salmon

July 31, 2017 By Colleen 5 Comments

I'd love it if you'd share this post:

Are you looking for something unusual to make this summer?  Try making this Charred Sugar Rub Crusted Alaska Salmon!  Of course it will work with other fish but living in Alaska – we happen to have wild caught Alaska Salmon.   This would be delicious with Sockeye Salmon or King Salmon.   Cooking a variety of fish is a great way to eat healthy and clean during the summer, especially if you can catch your own fish!

    It does sound, and look, really good. In KY, we might be more likely to use catfish, and I bet it would be good with that too.
