Forgot to meantion that I was in ASDA this weekend and bought 2 maple bbq planks for cooking on a grill. I will test them this weekend and report back.
BBQ Planks
- Thread starter godfather
- Start date
You soak them in water for a coiuple o hours then place your fish/meat on the plank and put it on a grill so there is a gentler heat with a bit of smokyness.
Heres a link that might be usefull on how to use them.

I think so.
Would be interesting to find out what flavours particular woods give to the food. I guess at a couple of pounds it was worth trying.

If find a suitable plank/lump of wood I'll give it go. I post what ever results i get back on this thread. I have been trying to cook the perfect bush bread and this wet wood thing looks like it might work. :sulkoff: off experimenting then. Thanks for the idea
Never tried maple before...
In the northwest states the big thing is cedar plank salmon.. Delicious
Have tried trout this way and also with several other 'aromatic' woods.
Maple is pretty hard though.. will have to soak a bit longer.
Lay it right on the coals and the light steam and heat will cook a little flavor into the food. Haven't tried it with bread/bannock though... will give it a shot next time!
enjoi!
