BBQ Salmon on Wet Plank (Old Native Indian Recipe) image

This was done for us by a friend, and it is moist and awesome. We did this for friends in Australia, but it was hard to find the cedar plank for starters, and the fish was very expensive, as it seems most is all exported.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (5 lb) whole salmon, with skin head removed and tail removed, open stomach to spine, but left intact

Plank must be short enough to accommodate the barbecue, yet big enough to accommodate the fish.

  • Baste salmon with butter and salt and pepper.
  • Add chives or freen onions.
