while others oil their salmon. to oil the grill, use a paper towel and soak it in vegetable or olive oil and lightly coat the grill with a pair of tongs. i personally do not like oiling the grill because sometimes the oil will drip onto the burner and sometimes flames up. although, i expect it, i find that i jump about every time.
step 3: grill the salmon.
place the salmon on your grill skin down. grill 4-6 minutes on each side. if you grill is gas, then you may cover by putting the lid down. no need to fuss with the salmon, just set a timer and turn or remove
