Debated what to do for this throw down…Knew the competition would be tough from you folks. Then I saw

cherry smoked salmon. It was decided.
Brined in kosher salt, brown sugar, and a dash of red wine vinegar over night. Soaked a cedar plank in water for a few hours and onto the kettle with a scattering of cherry chips. Did my best to keep it at about 200 degrees (hard work there).
when the salmon was getting close started on the sauce for the pasta. Didn’t get any pics of that. Basic Alfredo sauce With angel hair pasta. Cut the Halloumi cheese into planks.
Grilled that as the salmon was finishing. Cut the tomato into slices.
Plated it up with a balsamic drizzle on the cheese. First time ever cooking salmon. Was amazed at the depth of flavor to it.
Just want to thank those that voted for me. as I said it was some tough competition.
