Aloha, I love to cook salmon on a cedar or alder plank. I soak the plank and put the fillet skin side down. I like to put Lilikoi butter, passion fruit, on as a glaze and let it carmalize on the fish. I sprinkle on some crushed mac nuts and it is awesome. The copper river is the best because it already has a nutty flavor to it. Fun to grill and smoke fish. Mems.
