You can prepare your food with Seasoned Planks in just 5 easy steps:

1. If you are using an outdoor grill, soak the bottom (non-seasoned) half of plank

   in ¼ inch of water for 30-60 minutes without getting the seasoned portion wet. This will prevent charring.

   If you are using an oven, preheat the oven based on what you are cooking.

2. Place food on the center of the plank, placing the presentation side face down

   to start. If you are cooking a fish fillet with the skin on, start with the skin side up. If you have several pieces of food to cook on the plank, spread them across the most seasoned areas of the plank.

3. Cook your food until it is about halfway done. If you’re using a grill, use low

   heat/flame, cook with the cover down, and check occasionally.

   If you are using an oven, place the plank on a baking sheet or foil for easy clean-up. Place on the center rack in the preheated oven for best results.

4. Turn the food on the plank over.  If preparing a fish fillet with the skin on,

   gently remove and discard skin before flipping. Try to return the food to the place it originally occupied so you get the best flavor. Cook until done.

5. Serve and Enjoy!

   You can leave food on the plank to serve, if you like. The plank will retain heat from cooking for a few minutes.

Keep in Mind:

As with any wood products, be careful of occasional splinters.

Foodservice and Catering:

Planks are also available for caterers and foodservice companies. At this time, we are working on a plank that will allow food preparation to happen well in advance without flash freezing. Until then, however, please follow the instructions above.
