The most important thing I've learned about cooking salmon
fillets (including the quite large ones you are talking about)
is to cook it skin-side down and do not flip it. This applies
to either grilling methods (charcoal, mesquite, etc.) or
braising, my other favorite method.
I prefer low heat, such that a 1.5 to 3 pound fillet might
take from 20 to 25 minutes and still be medium-medium-rare inside,
but there's nothing wrong with going hotter/faster.
