Recipe: Cedar Plank Salmon

Submitter: Chef Jason  Morse, Ace Hardware Grill Expert

“Cedar plank cooking is such a great way to add aromatic flavors to everyday cooking,” Chef Jason says. “In this recipe we start with some wild caught Alaskan Salmon, then add some oil, Rub-A-Dub and Fishy Fishy.  Next, we grill it on the Traeger and add wood fired fun to that cedar aroma.”
