In the past I have been smoking salmon on foil, but I read that smoking it on cedar planks enhances the flavor.
Is there something special about the cedar planks you can buy packaged? I just built a headboard out of cedar and have leftover pieces of 1x6 and was wondering if I can just use that.
Pics below of cedar plank salmon I cooked on the Weber kettle this past Friday. Glazed w/ a maple-honey glaze, drizzled with a ginger-dill heavy cream sauce then served with grilled tri-colored bell peppers tossed with wheat couscous. Full recipes and cooking instructions here...
