Ingredients

  • Salmon 1/3 to 1/2 lb (150-225g) per person (I like left overs)
    1 unit
  • Marinade
    1 unit
  • Worcestershire sauce - a half cup
    1 unit
  • A little garlic powder
    1 unit
  • Lemon pepper
    1 unit
  • A beer
    1 unit

Method

1
Preheat the grill
2
Briefly place the salmon in the marinade
3
Place the salmon on the plank skin side down. It should not hang over.
4
Grill watching carefully. A glass of water or the left over marinade by the grill can be used to partially douse the fire when it gets too hot. As an alternative, a squirt-bottle or mister filled with water can douse any fire that commences on the plank. Individual planks give flexibility in moving to get all done evenly. Don't turn the fish on the plank, just move the plank(s) around, rotate, etc.
5
Remove the plank to onto a baking pan when the fish is cooked to the desired "doneness" and transfer to plates or a serving platter.
