| Native Americans perfected the art of roasting fish and game on wood planks and early accounts praise the aroma and flavors that resulted. With wood heat from the oven gradually expands wood fibers and slowly releases oils minerals sugars and water - like herbs different woods impart different flavors. Cedar imparts a sweet and smoky flavor. The plank does not give off this heat quickly so foods cook gently and keep their moistness - ideal for seafood and vegetables! European settlers built on the basic Native American tradition while expanding the culinary repertoire to include seasonings and vegetables. More recently world-renowned chefs have added epicurean refinements and popularized this method. Now you can enjoy the wonders of plank cooking on your grill and in your smoker.Cedar wood 15" L x 7" W x 3/8" D Set of 4 planks For use with all charcoal and gas barbecues Simply soak the plank place on hot grill until it smokes then arrange food on top and let hot-smoke for 8-25 minutes Keeps grill clean Recipe and instructions included May be reused until they are excessively charred or cracked - then break up to use as smoking chips |
