My wife and I love to eat salmon and Costco has some really nice specimens.  Does anyone have a recipe that we could try?

1/2 cup maple syrup or if you can get it sorghum syrup, or molasses
2 tblspn balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup piesporter goldtropchen
1/2 tblspn salt
1/4 tblspn ground black pepper
1/4 tblspn crushed whole ginger
2 tblspn olive oil
Mix all ingredients... heat, stirring constantly, over low flame until just beginning to bubble.  Cool, pour over salmon and marinate for several hours in the refrigerator. 
Smoke over a "cool smoke" fire (hickory or mesquite) until just flakey.  Garnish with very finely chopped onion and lighltly squeeze lemon juice over the fish. 
If you prefer, it can be grilled until the sauce is carmalized.  Garnish with lime slices. 
Several different methods, all with different tastes. 
I suggest whipped, garlic new potatoes and boiled (or broiled if you like it) asparagus.

I like my simple, rap it tin-foil with your favorite barbacue sauce and either grill or bake it.

We often use a cedar plank to add smoke flavour to the salmon as it cooks on the barbecue.  Costco sells them up here for $8 per 6 pack.  Here is one recipe:
 
1 plank
1 salmon fillet (2-4 lbs.), skin on
11/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
olive oil
Soak plank 45-60 minutes. Light one side of gas grill on high for 15 minutes. While grill is heating, rinse salmon fillet, pat dry and sprinkle with salt. When grill is hot, lay a sheet of foil on the unlit side of the grill. Put plank on top of foil, close lid and let heat for 5 minutes. Once heated, brush plank with olive oil, lay salmon on plank, skin side down. Brush salmon lightly with maple syrup, sprinkle with pecans and close lid. After 10 minutes, turn plank 180 degrees. Plank will smolder around edges, if it is really burning, spritz it with water. Check after 15 minutes. Fish is done when it flakes. A large fillet make take longer, continue to check periodically.

Those all sound good. If you're in a hurry though, Jamaican jerk rub under a broiler is a quick and tasty way to prepare. BTW, I'm always disappointed that Costo, despite being headquartered in the Pacific NW, only carries farm-raised salmon. To me that's the equivalent of farm-raised venison.

Costco does have some nice farm raised fillets compared to most groceries. The farm raised is also half the price of the most excellent of wild run Alaskan sockeye.
I do like to brush some olive oil on the skin side so it doesn't stick to the grill.
A quickie that always works for me is Bay's Seafood Seasoning on the top side. Just before removing off the grill at medium done, I squeeze some lemon on top.
Some dijon mustard mixed with some fresh dill and butter can be thrown in a Pyrex, stainless or ceramic bowl. Set it on the grill to the side while grilling the fish. Put some dollops on top of the fillet when served...........yummy.

Actually was pleasantly surprised to find my Costco had wild sockeye...same price per lb. as the farm-raised stuff. Even if it was a few dollars higher, I'd have paid it. There is a world of difference between the two.

One of John's all time favorite way to cook any fish, including trout and salmon, is to wrap a chunk of it in a paper towl and microwave until just done.  (Still moist, but flaky.)  Then let it chill in the fridge and when cold, add your usual favorite 'tuna salad' mixings.   Mayo, garlic salt, whatever you like in tuna salad. 
 
But my fave is lightly grilled, with a good brushing of maple syrup on the flesh side; then mix up a crab louie kind of dip: a cup of mayo, 1/4 cup chili sauce (like bottled Heinz Chili sauce), 2 tbsp grated onions, 2 tbs minced fresh parsley, pinch of cayenne pepper, and 1/3 cup heavy cream. 
That also works for any white meated fish.  (Or maybe with all that mayo and cream, it would work with anything that crawls, stots, or wiggles.

PS  John and I were at the  Missoula Gun Show this last weekend, and I bought a second (in 6 weeks) Remington Model 31, 20 gauge pump shotgun.   I can't believe I ran into both in such a short time, and bought both.  Now I can't decide.  keep both?  Sell the less perfect?  They're both in great shape.  Any thoughts?   What I'd really like is a Rem Model 17 in something less than 12 g.  But they're a lot harder to find than 31's and they're hard enough.

Hold out for the 17 and then trade both the 31s.

Great recipes!  I am going to have to go get some salmon and try them.

I like your grilled recipe.  Have to try that soon.  Thank you.

Helo18: I missed a 17 on an online forum just the other day.   I do have one; but it has a polychoke on it.   Handy for changing conditions, but I would like something that hasn't been dicked with.  
So you're a 17 fan, too?  Or just know that a person isn't happy until they find right gun?

Well, more that I know that a person isn't happy till they find the right gun.  But I do like the older Remington pumps.  I would love to have a old 17.  My dad has a couple of the model 12 22s.  Some day they might be mine.  Hope you find that 17.

White wine + lemon juice + lemon pepper  Bake in pan covered with aluminum foil at 350 for about 20 min.
 
Option #2 make a foil packet and cook it on the grill with what ever seasoning you prefer -  there are several oriental seasonings that can be used.  Some type of ginger seasoning might be worth a shot.  Fish is fairly versitile it tastes like what you put on it so if you like spicey stuff you could go that route also.
