    Just made this, following the recipe exactly. Tasted awesome, next time I might try to make it a little spicier though.

    I recently bought a piece of salmon that was quite bland. Normally some salt, pepper and a spritz of lemon juice are just the ticket to liven up salmon but it didn't work, so I instantly thought of Ellie's rub and it worked wonders. I'd also experiment with adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to make it more spicy. This rub is sweet and delicious for any kind of meat, even chicken or pork.

    So easy to make! Cooked the salmon on a cedar plank instead and it turned out amazing. The rub is very simple but with huge flavors.

    simple,easy, flavorful. Can use this rub on many things.......I also used HOT chili powder, which I think really complimented the brown sugar.

    Wonderful flavor. Even my 10 year-old grandson loved it. We plan to try it on rockfish and tilapia next.

    This was a pretty good recipe. I added lime to the fish before I put the rub on...I was not a big fan of this recipe, but my boyfriend loved it. The rub made plenty for two big salmon filets, but be careful not to burn it. I cooked it ion the stovetop on medium for 7 minutes on each side (we like WELL DONE fish but when I flipped it the first side was a little too dark, so just watch the fish so it doesn't burn. I will be making it again since it's not only pretty healthy, but the boyfriend loved it!

    Easiest salmon recipe, and just the right combination of sweet and spicey. This dish can be ready in under 15 minutes.

    This is an amazing recipe...a great crowd pleaser! You can do it in the oven or on the grill..very flavorful. I usually double the rub as you really need to layer it on there.

    I thought this was okay, I also used a lot of rub like one of the other reviewers and found it to have only some flavor. I would have liked it to have a lot more. It was my first time cooking salmon as well, so it very well could have been me. I think next time I'd add more chili powder to add a little more spice, we like things spicy at my house. I only could really taste the sweetness. I have lemon on any fish I'm having, so I added freshly squeezed lemon juice on it and it brought out more flavor.
    I am a dipper so I typically like things with some sort of a gravy or something I can dip in, but that's just me, so I will probably try a different recipe that I could get that. Like I said this was my first time making salmon so I wanted something easy to ease my way into it, I would probably make it again to try and make it better. My boyfriend who is not the biggest fish fan did like it though which is good.
