Directions

  1. Soak wood planks in desired liquids with salt overnight. (Salt helps the plank to not burn on grill, just remember to reduce salt in any recipe to adjust taste).
  2. Remove from water, wrap in plastic wrap individually and place in ziplock bags and freeze.
  3. Remove individually wrapped planks as needed.
  4. No need to thaw, unwrap and use for grilling as recipe directs.
