Nature's Cuisine NC006 Cedar/Alder Combo Outdoor Grilling Planks, Set of 4

The planks are reusable as long as they are not too charred or cracked, in which case they can be crumbled into the grill for adding a smoky flavor or into a fireplace for a woodsy smell. To extend the life of the planks, they can be heated and just used for serving. Each plank is made in Canada of untreated, slightly rough wood and measures 15 by 7 by 3/8 inch, long enough to hold shish kabobs and large fillets of fish. In order to differentiate the two types, the cedar planks are made with rounded corners and the alder planks with square corners. Cedar is also lighter and less dense than either alder or maple. To reuse, scrub gently with warm soapy water and rinse clean. The planks are gift-wrapped with attractive color photographs, and recipes are included. --Ann Bieri
