how to make grilled salmon on the grill
If the fillets still have skin, remove it after grilling. To grill salmon on a charcoal grill, place the fish on the grill rack directly over medium coals. Grill, uncovered, for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness or until fish begins to flake when tested with a fork. Turn the fish once halfway through grilling.
Preheat Your Grill. You want to preheat your grill to a high heat so that you can burn off whatever may be left on it. After the grill has been on high for a couple of minutes, use a grill brush to clean the grate thoroughly. Turn the heat down to medium high heat for grilling your salmon.
