How to Grill Fish: a Simple Way to Improve Fish Grilling and Barbecue Recipes

This tip is virtually guaranteed to improve any fish grilling recipe and add extra flavor to your cooking.

But before you reasd on, for more valuable advice like this, wise-up and join the Grilling Coach's Newsletter NOW use the orange box on the right - more superb grilling tips delivered right to your inbox. Improve not only your fish recipes but also your meat and vegetable ones too!

For a better grilling experience, try using cedar plank for your grilling fish recipe to add extraordinary taste and flavor to your grilled fish recipes. Making use of these will move your grilling experience to the next level.

Using a wooden plank for grilling fish recipes is fantastic since it allows you to have a great steady surface to hold, whatever food you are grilling, not just fish, and together giving you the smoked flavor that you want for your grilling fish recipe.

First, you will have to have a piece of wood, like an inch thick, which has not been impregnated or treated with chemicals. The food that you are going to grill for your grilling fish recipe should be fitted on the plank totally; make sure that the plank that you are going to use is wide and long enough so that there will be plenty of space and the food will not be overcrowded. Cedar, packed with smoky flavors, is probably the best type of wood for grilling fish recipes but still, you can use other kinds of wood which are also good but not perhaps as great as Cedar. Alder and maple are often used too. Cedar wood planks can be purchased online at online stores that sell grill-ready planks or you can go to your local gourmet grilling store.

Because this kind of wood, Cedar, is not treated, before using it, you must clean and soak it very well or else the fish or other food that you are grilling for your grilling fish recipe could catch fire and get burned and ruin the meal. Before using it, soak the wood plank, for an hour or more, in water to get it thoroughly wet until it is safe to use. There are times when the wood plank you use will catch fire; do not panic, all you have to do is sprinkle a little water until you get the fire out. Or, you can keep a water sprayer beside you in case this happens. In addition, soaking the wood plank before using it will help keep the food that you are grilling to stay tender and juicy.

If ever you see you a plank smoldering and smoking, you do not have to panic, it only means that the wood plank is passing on the additional flavor to the food that you are grilling, fish for instance.

To keep the food from sticking onto to the plank, use a little cooking oil and brush it up and down on the plank. Also, you do not have to flip the food over again and again in order to cook the food well because the heat that the plank produces is indirect. Moreover, you should know that grilling fish using cedar wood plank for your grilling fish recipe will take more time than the usual because of the indirect cooking. Seam the fish with butter or lemon juice to heighten the flavor.

Remove the wood plank from your grill using oven mitts once the fish is ready and place it somewhere safe. To cool the fish a little before serving your fish recipe to your visitors, use a fireproof or sheet serving platter.

So you can see how easy it is to become an accomplished grilling chef by following this tip with your fish, meat or vegetable recipes. Wise backyard grillers know that it makes sense to get these insider's tips for more experienced grillers - so get smart and sign up now for the Grilling Coach newsletter - NOW!

Here's what our members are saying ...


"My wife recently gave me a couple of The Grilling Coach's DVDs - SOUTHERN, SMOKED, GLAZED HAM on the GRILL and REAL SOUTHERN BARBEQUE.  All the recipes are, in a word, outstanding!  The step-by-step instructions are skillfully explained at a pace that's easy to follow and understand.  I've been smoke cooking and making my own sausage for almost 40 years; and, I know my way around the kitchen.  Believe me when I tell you - you'll love these DVDs."
