Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the liquid has reduced to about ⅓ cup, 15 to 20 minutes. Season with the salt and let cool. (You can refrigerate the syrup for up to 3 days.)
• Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350° to 450°F). If you're using a charcoal grill, keep a small part of the charcoal grate clear of briquettes as a safety zone of indirect heat.
