Title: Cedar Plank Salmon and Mashed potatoes
Post by: Bearded on September 15, 2020, 03:06:58 PM

Tonight: Cedar Plank Salmon and Potatoes with asparagus

- Sweet and Spicy Norwegian Salmon with a Spicy Maple glaze
- Mashed potatoes with a fresh homemade garlic herb butter
- Italian marinade asparagus

This was pretty good IMO. First time grilling salmon and first time using a plank

Thanks. It's based on Cooking with Ry's video. 

1 cup brown sugar
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp chili powder

Drizzle soy sauce on salmon and then cake it in the "dry brine" and put in fridge covered over night.

Next day when ready to cook brush off extra brine, no need to rinse since the salt ratio is so low.

Potatoes I made up as I normally would and kept them a bit thicker so they would hold their shape on the cedar board.

Herb butter was 1/4 cup butter softened and about 2 heaping tablespoons of basil and tarragon leaves cut up and stirred in with a few cracks of black pepper and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Rolled in parchment paper and put in fridge to set back up.

3/4 chimney of charcoal and let the vents fully open.

Soaked cedar board for 1 hour. Put on grill for 3 minutes and then pulled off and arranged food on the charred side.

Put cedar back in kettle for 15 minutes and checked temp. Once it hit 140° I applied the glaze.

Glaze was 1/3 cup maple syrup and about 2 tbsp of cholula hot sauce.

Another 5 minutes or so and pulled them off

Asparagus was marinated in olive garden dressing with some grated parmesan for 30 minutes then put on the grill in a basket for about 20 minutes.

Here is the link to Ry's video with more details.
