Set up your Big Green Egg for raised direct cooking. Preheat the dome temperature to 450°F.
Pat the salmon filet dry with paper towels. Remove the skin if needed.
Brush honey on salmon. Season the salmon generously on all sides with the Dizzy Pig IPA Rub.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, fresh lime juice, and chili powder until smooth.
Lightly oil the cooking grate if desired. Place the salmon filet on the raised cooking grate.
Cook for 5 minutes on the first side. Carefully flip the salmon using a wide spatula.
Continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 130°F.
Remove the salmon from the grill. Brush the salmon generously with the honey lime glaze while still hot.
Let the salmon rest for 3 to 5 minutes.
