Sweet and Smoky Cedar Planked Salmon

Serves 4

Written by
Sweet and Smoky Cedar Planked Salmon
There’s always a BBQ favourite in the menu, and cedar-planked it is. Almost anything grilled on a plank offers exemplary smokiness and added depth. This combination of sweet, hot, and savoury coupled with juice is the perfect flavouring for salmon. In fact, it’s an amazing marinade on most anything—try it with chicken or vegetables grilled on wood.
