Season the asparagus with salt, pepper, garlic, and butter.

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the griddle.

Add bacon grease or your choice of oil to the griddle for cooking the asparagus.

Place the asparagus on the griddle, flesh side down, and cook until slightly crispy.

Flip the asparagus to ensure even cooking, adjusting for thickness.

Brush the salmon with the bang bang sauce while cooking.

Serve the salmon on a bed of garlic rice with asparagus on the side.
