Gold Medal Cedar Planked Salmon

We love grilling salmon on our Big Green Egg, and this Gold Medal Cedar Planked Salmon is just amazing!

Ingredients

1 salmon filet
2 tbsp Big Green Egg Citrus & Herb Seasoning or seasoning of your choice
1 tbsp lemon zest
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 blood orange or other citrus fruit, cut into rounds
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley for garnish
1 Cedar Grilling Plank

Instructions

Set the EGG for direct cooking without a convEGGtor at 400°F/204°C.

Soak the plank in water for at least 30 minutes. Cover the salmon in the seasoning, lemon zest, and brown sugar; arrange the orange slices on top. Remove the plank from the water and place salmon onto the plank, then directly onto the cooking grid; close the EGG and cook for 15 minutes or until salmon reaches an internal temperature of 125°F for medium. Remove from the EGG and sprinkle fresh parsley to garnish.
