Know before you buy
Yes, it is recommended to soak the planks in water for at least one to two hours before grilling. This prevents the wood from catching fire and helps generate the steam necessary to infuse your food with flavor.
These planks are designed for single-use. Once the wood has been charred and infused with food juices, it loses its structural integrity and flavor profile, making it unsuitable for a second round of cooking.
Yes, you can use these planks in an oven just as you would on a grill. Ensure your oven rack is positioned to accommodate the height of the plank and food, and always place the plank on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
Western Red Cedar is a classic pairing for salmon and other fatty fish, as the smoke cuts through the richness of the meat. It also works exceptionally well with scallops, shrimp, asparagus, and even soft cheeses like brie.
Always cook over indirect heat rather than directly over the flames. If you are using a charcoal grill, push the coals to the side; if using a gas grill, turn off the burners directly beneath the plank.
