1
For the glaze, combine the juice, brown sugar, bouillon, pepper, bourbon and soy sauce. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn heat down to a simmer. Thicken to your desired thickness with cornstarch slurry (equal parts cold water mixed with cornstarch -- be careful, it will thicken quickly!).
2
For the topping, fry the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Add peanuts and cook until the peanuts are heated through and hot, about 1 minute.
3
Grill the salmon over medium-high heat to desired doneness. (I cook 2 minutes, turn 45 degrees and cook 2 minutes more, flip the salmon and cook 2-3 minutes, rotate 45 degrees and cook 2-3 minutes more, until it flakes nicely) Baste with the glaze while you are grilling the salmon.
4
Finish by topping the salmon with the bacon and peanuts.
