This melts in your mouth! I served this to my Book Club and they loved it! My only suggestion would be to "watch" the amount of marinade the recipe makes; I adjusted the recipe for 6 people and had a TON more marinade than I needed.

Delicious!! We made this for a birthday dinner for my dad, who loves fish. I doubled the recipe and marinated the salmon for maybe 2 hours and the only change we made was to grill it on cedar planks. It got rave reviews and I would definitely make this again! Thank you!!

Boy! was this good!!! Made this recipe for 4th of July for 10 people and it drew raves!! Everyone commented on how much they liked the sweetness of the pineapple taste. Of course, like others have suggested, I marinated for 3 days AND used more bourbon (about 3 ounces), and sesame oil. One additional touch, I cooked the filets on cedar planks on my gas bbq. Result -- FANTASTIC!! Served with my Corn-Tomato-and-Black-Bean-Salsa. Made a big hit!!
