Note: Cedar planks specifically designed for barbecuing can be purchased in the meat department of large grocery stores. Or use an untreated western red cedar plank found in building supply stores. Never use a treated cedar plank. Planks should be about 16 x 6 x 1/2 inches (40 x 15 x 1.2 cm) and are good for 1 use each.
