Notes

  • Soak the cedar planks- Doing this will really ensure that the planks don't char and catch on fire while grilling the fish.
  • Check for pin bones- Most fish have already been deboned, but it's a good idea to check your salmon for any that might have been missed before grilling.
  • Cut the pineapple into hexagon slices- When slicing off the skin, leave the pineapple in a hexagon shape so you can piece the slices together to get full coverage on your plank.
  • Reuse the cedar planks- In general, if you scrape the cedar planks and soak them in water again, they will still work for other meals.
