INGREDIENTS

• 1 kg Salmon side, skinless

DIRECTIONS

1. Prepare the Cajun Rub by combining paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, fennel seeds, cumin, cayenne, black pepper, and kosher salt in a bowl. Mix well.

2. Rub the Cajun seasoning all over the salmon side, ensuring even coverage. Allow it to marinate while you prepare the basting butter.

3. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add garlic powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, onion powder, black pepper, kosher salt, and red chili flakes. Stir well and let the flavors meld for a few minutes. Remove from heat.

4. Preheat your grill or smoker to medium-high heat. Place the salmon on the grill grates and cook for about 30-40 minutes, or until the salmon reaches your desired level of doneness. Baste the salmon generously with the Cajun basting butter during the last 15 minutes of cooking.

5. In a small bowl, whisk together honey and Truff Hot Sauce to create the sassy hot honey drizzle.

6. Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle the sassy hot honey over the smoked Cajun salmon.

7. Serve the Smoked Cajun Salmon with a Sassy Hot Honey Drizzle alongside your favorite sides and enjoy a symphony of flavors that will ignite your taste buds.
