It's very rare the family all agrees on dinners to repeat, but hands down this is a make again and again!

A great mixture of hickory and sweet. The mustard gives it a nice kick.




Delicious!

We tried this recipe for a party last Saturday night and it was easy and fabulous. Everyone raved. We, too, were a little concerned about how to use the cedar plank and then the mustard/brown sugar combo was going out on a limb for us, but WOW!....Try this easy recipe. We used the cook's note version. Keep a spray bottle of water with you in case the plank ignites. Thank you, Bobby Flay!!!

Great flavor. Could not be any easier to make. The cedar plank makes a big difference.

This recipe was great. We received some cedar planks as a gift, and we're so glad we did! The flavor combination is wonderful, and it couldn't be simpler to prepare. Next time we might use a little less mustard, and we also used Splenda brown sugar, which tasted great! Must try!




Very Flavorful

Very easy and flavorful. I think it is much easier to not overcook salmon on a cedar plank. The rub was very flavorful, quick and easy.




BEST EVER

This salmon turned out perfect. This was my first attempt using a cedar plank and I was really impressed with the subtle cedar flavor. I read a lot of recipes before choosing this one and am so happy I did. I was a little weary about the dijon and brown sugar mixture, but it turned out to meld into the perfect flavor. My husband, a die-hard salomon lover, said this was the bext salmon he ever ate.

This salmon is simple to prepare and I receive rave reviews everytime. I make it on the BBQ beacuse it is summer. I have made it in the oven as well and it turns out just as good. This is a keeper in my recipe collection.

At first looke, you think what an flavor combination, mustard & brown sugar? The two together were a flavorful surprise! The salmon was so moist and tasty, that everyone fought over the little morsels left on the plank! This will please any crowd!

Very easy and very delicious. Stays moist well and tastes just as good without the brown sugar.

This was very easy to make, with prep time being at a minimum. The fish cooked, without any tending by myself, while I prepared the other accompanying dishes. I served a nice Washington State chardonnay with it. A really enjoyable meal.

Have fixed this 3 times now and it's a favorite. I always have my fishmonger remove the skin from the salmon. The last 2 times I've fixed this I've placed several sprigs of fresh rosemary and very thinly sliced lemons beneath the salmon. Also, I always serve it with grilled pineapple (sprinkle it with a little brown sugar while grilling - it enhances the caramelization).




Plank Salmon

Indirect grilling didn't work. I put the plank over direct heat and had to spray it with water several times because it caught fire. The salmon did cook but I didn't notice any real cedar taste. It was good but I think you could get the same results in the oven.

I tried this a couple of days ago. Didn't remove the fish skin/scales because I was afraid of tearing the meat. (How did everyone else do this?) Taste was excellent- would use perhaps a little less mustard. Made dinner for in-laws; one "doesn't eat seafood", tried it and liked it! I am definitely going to make this one again.




Absolutely Yum Yum!

This was an amazing recipe. Very easy, about the hardest thing was removing bones, and the taste was fantastic.

A last minute family dinner had me scrambling for ideas. I came across a set of planks I had been given as a gift. I picked up a salmon fillet and jumped on-line to see how to use the plank and to find a tasty, but simple recipe to barbecue the salmon. Everything worked perfectly and even my husband, who doesn't like salmon, enjoyed the results.




Great!
