On the grill
Salmon belly is far fattier than the loin fillet and cooks faster because of it. A hot direct grill for a couple of minutes a side is usually enough.
It flares more than a lean fillet because of the fat content, so keep a cooler zone on the grill to move it to if the fire gets aggressive.
