Another Show Stopping Recipe
I created another show-stopping recipe for the Entrée and Grilling Categories with my second entry for the Cedar Bay Blogger Recipe Challenge.
My delicious Salmon, Jalapeño and Corn Chowder really hits the spot; even on the hottest days of summer. Today we reached 110 degrees Fahrenheit here in Houston, Texas; but we paid the heat no mind and grilled up some Cedar Bay Grilling Company Atlantic Planked Salmon and made some crazy good chowder.
I really like that Cedar Bay Grilling Company takes all the guess work out of preparation when it comes to seasoning and grilling planked salmon. Cedar Bay salmon products come pre-seasoned and ready to be placed directly into the oven or onto the BBQ with little-to-no preparation required.
ABOUT THE CHALLENGE
The inaugural Cedar Bay Grilling Blogger Recipe Challenge is open to 50 spectacular bloggers. I was honored to be chosen to create up to three recipes and compete for a chance to win up to $1500.00 cash.

Bloggers received two free samples for testing and recipe creation: Sugar & Spice 24 oz Cedar Planked Atlantic Salmon and one 24 oz Applewood with Orange & Ginger Cedar Planked Atlantic Salmon. Both flavors are absolutely delicious and a breeze to make. I used the Sugar and Spice flavor for this recipe.
