Planked Salmon

[Jeff]

I'm only so dumb, dude. I got too crazy on a bike in the 70s and am STILL paying for it.

I get straight to point because that's just me. Liquor + Gunny = jail. Anyone else goes to the ER. Not to mention your brother is unappreciative of me exercising my "drunk n posting" skillset.

If you got sweet tea I'll be fine.

I'd go with you in a second. I'll just be "that" guy behind y'all in the 1 ton red GMC that only the fans of Fast and Furious think is invisible. They fit UNDER my bumper.

Brother come on any way you want, I rode past Wally World tonight and folks are camping there, a sea of Confederate flags, ought to be a fun one.

Here's a cedar planked coho fillet I did camping at O'Connel Lake on Vancouver Island a few years ago, used a cedar board I split from a chunk of firewood and made an aluminum foil tent over the fish to trap the smoke. It was all excellent.

It's 5:44 and I'm starved. I just saw the salmon above me and it looked awesome! But I think we're having some weird looking chicken, I think. I may try salmon this week, or nag the woman to make it.

I've made that recipe, it's good!

I'll give it a try, then.

Last night I smoked wings using the off set method
and used cherry for smoke.

Oh, oh, upside down. I'll have to work on that....

It looks good. I just don't like fish. I've been deep sea fishing probably a hundred times, but I always went with some who would eat it.

The whole idea of the plank thing is intriguing me though. I'll eat haddock and orange roughy (they don't taste like fish). I always put them on foil though.

I think there's a few reasons. Impart some flavor. You have a built-in plate. Delicate fish won't fall apart when flipping.

But I'm with you, I don't eat fish.

I get the flavor and not losing half your fish into the fire part. I just never heard of it. I used to grill fish for my daughter (WAY on the opposite side from my steak).

Hell, if you can't smoke a brisket with real wood by the time you're 10 where I'm from, you probably need to be taken out behind the shed and get a "talkin' to". That's as big a sin as not being able to saddle a horse.

It IS funny watching yankees try though. Horses are smarter than dogs. If you're afraid, they know it and your ass ain't going to be sitting in that saddle long.

Anyways, we just don't grill a lot of fish in South Texas. The Mexicans might. Bu they eat cabrito (goat). They do like shark. Us paranoid, God-fearing, gun-owning, Bible reading white folk clinging to our confederate battle ensign eat cows n chickens.

Yup, so very true. I have been in the south 20 plus years but horses scare the sheot out of me, last time I had to saddle one ( or was talked into it ) I whispered in that bitches ear " if you be nice I wont pull the 45 out of my effing pocket and put one in that extra large forehead of yours " I think he understood because we got through it.

I cook salmon in tin foil, skin side down, covered with pepper, onion slices and lemon...seal it up and cook it till it's done. It's amazing. I've had planked salmon, and it's good (and it was cedar, served in a restaurant). Almost if not all plants and trees have toxins..they vary from plant to plant and reactions vary person to person. A couple of years ago I was smoking like crazy in my little grill....coals on one side, a pan of water on the other, the meat over the water, and wood chips in the charcoal for flavored smoke. I made some amazing boston butts and chickens.
