"I came across this recipe online when I was looking for ways to cook meat (other than fish) with cedar planks. I enjoyed this recipe, but to be honest, it would have been good without the cedar planks too."

  1. This recipe was great. We did make some changes though. We didn't use the cedar planks b/c we didn't have any, and we used the marinade on a london broil instead of individual steaks. But in general, it came out wonderfully. The meat was very moist and full of flavor, but not overly spiced. Would definitely make this again.
