In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, ginger, sesame seeds and lemon pepper.
Pour over the salmon in a shallow glass dish.
Cover and let marinate for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Before preparing a hot fire, spray grill grate with non-stick cooking spray.
Grill the salmon, flesh side down first, directly on the grill grate, for about 5 minutes.

Serve immediately, sprinkled with the black sesame seeds.
