1 If available, use a probe cover with your thermometer. 2  Put the end of the thermometer in the center of your child's armpit. 3  Be sure the thermometer is only between skin and that clothes are not in the way. 4  Bring your child's arm down, close to the side.
1 If the fillets still have skin, remove it after grilling.  To grill salmon on a charcoal grill, place the fish on the grill rack directly over medium coals. Grill, uncovered, for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness or until fish begins to flake when tested with a fork. Turn the fish once halfway through grilling. If you like, brush the salmon with olive oil or melted butter after turning to add flavor and keep it moist.
Grill for 3-4 minutes per inch of thickness on each side with the lid closed. Thereâs nothing worse than overcooked fish! The salmon will flake easily with a fork when done so make sure to test it when salmon turns opaque and feels slightly firm. Use a wide spatula to remove the salmon from the grill.
