Cedar Plank Shrimp with Cheese Grits

[tropics]

Haven't made these in a while so to start soak your plank for 30 min. up to 2 hrs
Have a spray bottle handy in case of flare ups,bottle on far right

Get your Shrimp ready (no pic)
I decided to make these with a Basil Pesto

Dry your plank then put a light coat of Olive Oil (top side only)
Arrange your shrimp while the grill is getting hot

Grill was set to 400°F

Prepared the grits used Cheddar Jack

Grilled & ready to serve took 15 minutes

Dinner is done came out better then I thought it would

Thanks for looking

Yup, I think I have seen them at lowes. May be a seasonal thing there.

I'd definitely try that. Love pesto, but froze out already.

Nice meal. Never tried shrimp on the plank. Do you taste the cedar flavor?

Hmmm...PC? Interesting.

I used cedar from the lumber yard. From the information i gathered is not treated. So i just cut it and let it rip.

I also bought a few sets (6 or something lile that in a pack) from costco: inxepensive. They are also stamped with a fish figure. Makes for a good effect. They are good as serving boards as well.

You get a little taste I think next time I will put the plank first so it smokes more.
