How to make the already-delicious flavor of salmon even better? Give it a refreshing beverage, so to speak! Drunkin' Honey Salmon is marinated in a sweet, full-bodied, and savory bourbon sauce before it gets grilled to perfection. And then, of course, it's brushed in more of the bourbon sauce, so it becomes glazed in its smokey-honey-flavored glory. Drunkin' Honey Salmon uses a boozy brew to make the fish fantastic!

Ingredients
- 4 (6-8-ounce) fresh salmon steaks, cut 1-inch-thick, rinsed and patted dry
- 3/4 cup bourbon
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
