Alaskan BBQ Salmon

   Ingredients
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
1 dash liquid smoke flavoring
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1 (4 pound) whole salmon fillet

   1. Preheat grill for high heat.
   2. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, honey, liquid smoke and vinegar.
   3. Brush one side of the salmon with the basting sauce. Place the salmon on the grill, basted side down. After about 7 minutes, generously baste the top and turn over. Cook for about 8 more minutes, then brush on more basting sauce, turn and cook for 2 minutes. Take care not to overcook the salmon as it will loose its juices and flavor if cooked too long.
