Jack Daniel's Cedar Plank Salmon
CDKitchen https://www.cdkitchen.com
Serves/Makes: 6 | Ready In: > 5 hrs
Ingredients:
6 salmon fillets
***Marinade***
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup barbecue sauce
3/4 cup Jack Daniels
1/4 cup honey
1 lemon, juiced
1 orange, juiced
Directions:
Mix marinade and place salmon in zip lock bag and marinade overnight or at least 4 to 6 hours. Soak plank covered in water for 5 or 6 hours.
When ready to use, preheat your grill to 350 degrees F or medium high heat. Place the plank in the grill and heat each side for several minutes. Then oil (I use spray oil) the plank on the top side and remove salmon from the marinade, placing filets skin side down. Cover and grill about 20 minutes or until fish is done.
You may flip over the salmon once if desired. The plank will smoke and if it catches fire have a spray bottle of water on hand to extinguish any fire. My plank normally doesn't burst into flames and is usually just charred on the bottom and so it cannot be reused. Remove salmon from plank and serve.
Cook's Notes: Buy the cedar plank at a lumber store (usually I buy one long plank and have it cut into equal sections of either 13 to 15 inches long). Then, I'll have enough for several uses.
For cedar planked salmon, one not need marinade the fish either and may use other seasonings for planked salmon such as coarse salt and coarse cracked pepper and Dijon mustard, slathered on prior to grilling.
Carefully remove used plank from grill and cool plank and discard appropriately
