No cedar, PTL for Salmon plank on the BBQ?

Evening all,

A friend of mine told me about doing Salmon on a Cedar plank on the BBQ, and
that it was quite tasty.

I don't have any cedar scraps around the shop right now. The last deck I
made was from pressure treated lumber. Since both are used for decks, do you
think I will have any problems using PTL planks to cook my Salmon on?

Thanks,

David.

Don't you have any minnows for bait David? Salmon's pretty big and
expensive to be using for that purpose.

Cedar planked Salmon, yum!

I only use Trex. You never know what they may have actually used for
PTL.

Plus, what doesn't melt can be used for smoking later.

Again, not if it's Lake Erie Salmon... There's enough residual
Cuprinol in the Lake from us treating the bilges of our Lymans.

Personally, I like them smoked. Try a nice hunk of a railroad tie.

Mmmm...Creasote.

That's a good way to prepare carp, too.

Except you throw the fish away afterwards and eat the plank.

*sigh* You are obviously WAY* behind in your continuing education requirements
for maintaining rabbinical currency.

That material is to be used *only* in the preparation/cooking of infant goat
meat. This has been _well_known_ for many years. To wit:

"Silly rabbi, Trex is for kids."



"Oh. Cedar makes your life easier."


"You may think its butter, but its snot."

Yup. you will.

*UNLESS* you sprinkle both sides liberally with ricin first.

This will help seal the surface of the fish, and prevent the PTL from
drawing the flavor out.

You can use PTL but the fish will wind up looking like Tammy Faye.

Don't be ridiculous. You can't plank salmon with PLT. Try Azek. You'll
get better flames.

No problem..and if you dont eat all the salmon, it'll 'keep' for 30 years,
just like the PTL

I have planked before, but not with cedar, I have used mesquite and cooked
steaks on it. You have to soak the wood for a day or so and keep it
wet/moist while cooking. Really makes the steaks taste great.

Should be okay. Make sure you baste it in Cuprinol whilst cooking.

Personally, I have never planked a salmon...but there is this cute
sheep...alas, I have said too much.

Better go trolling for that fish first, then come back and ask the

I would think the nasty fungicides/chemicals in pressure treated lumber
precludes its use in food preparation.

If it's a Chinook Salmon caught in Lake Erie the PTL may help neutralize
the chemicals the salmon pick up from the lake.
