Cut off the top of a head of garlic. Cut enough off to expose the tops of all the cloves. Place the head of garlic on a piece of foil large enough to wrap it up completely. Drizzle 1 tbsp. of oil over the top, wrap it up, and place it on the hot coals of your campfire or barbecue.
Place the salmon on a piece of foil large enough to wrap it up completely. Drizzle 1 tbsp. of oil over the top, then sprinkle the rosemary over that. Wrap it up and place the packet on the hot coals of your campfire or barbecue.
Cooking time for the garlic will be approximately 30-50 minutes, depending on the heat of your coals and how much you can burry the garlic ball in the hot coals. Cooking time for the salmon will depend on the size and thickness of your fillet, but if the coals are hot, you can estimate about 12-15 minutes or so. The salmon is done when it easily flakes. Keep in mind the fish will continue to cook for a few minutes after being removed from the coals when deciding if it’s done or not.
