Just in time for July 4th, here's an incredible-sounding recipe for caipirinha salmon, courtesy of Bucky's Barbecue & Bread:
Grilling was the obvious choice, but I’ve fixed salmon the same way for the last couple of years. Recently, I found a drink that I really like called a caipirinha, made with cachaça, a liquor made in Brazil similar to rum but made only with sugar cane. In other words, good! Add lime, sugar and ice, and you have a caipirinha, Brazil’s national drink. I thought those same flavors would go with the salmon.
I poured a bit of cachaça on the salmon, added cane sugar and lime juice, salt and pepper, and let it sit for a while as the Bubba Keg grill heated up. I also halved a couple more limes to grill to add some grilled lime at the end.
