1
Prepare the Squid
Clean and prepare the Japanese squid by removing the innards and beak. Rinse under cold water and pat dry.
2
Prepare the Avocado
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado into thin strips.
3
Prepare the Smoked Salmon
Slice the smoked salmon into long strips, making sure they are manageable to wrap around the avocado and squid.

4
Mix the Sauce
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, Sriracha, honey, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Whisk until well combined and set aside.

5
Wrap the Ingredients
Take a strip of smoked salmon and lay it flat. Place a few avocado slices at one end of the salmon and then position a cleaned squid on top. Carefully wrap the salmon around the squid and avocado tightly.
6
Secure the Wrap
Use a toothpick or kitchen twine to secure the wrapped ingredients, ensuring they stay intact during cooking.

7
Grill the Squid
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the wrapped squid on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the squid is opaque and cooked through.
8
Baste with Sauce
During the last minute of grilling, brush the squid with the housemade sauce for added flavor.

9
Plate and Serve
Remove the squid from the grill and let it rest for a minute. Serve the BBQ squid on a plate, drizzled with any remaining sauce, and enjoy!
