The Art of Planking is a new book from master chef and King of the "BBQ", Ted Reader. Don't let that wild eyed and wild-hair fool ya! (He really does dress that way too), this man is truly a master at the fine art of cooking on the grill and noted on Canadian TV as well as other cable shows here in the US. Until now, his six (yes, SIX!) cookbooks have not been available in US bookstores– and the Art of Plank grilling is hitting shelves.
In The Art of Plank Grilling, Ted Reader, helps home grillers master the art of barbecuing with cedar plank. Plank-grilling infuses food with unique flavor and allows food to cook slowly in natural juices. Traditionally used for salmon and other fish, plank grilling is now becoming a popular method for grilling a variety of foods. As Ted says, "You can cook anything on the grill."
Being a huge fan of cedar plank grilling (and it can be done in the oven too), his cookbook provides an array of dishes that have you thinking about firing up the grill and working on something spectacular- but even the simplest meals take on an exotic flavor once they hit a plank. Besides it's almost Memorial Day, you are going to be doing something that weekend that will require a grill!
