Instructions
- Submerge the wood planks underwater for at least one hour. Once done, pull out and dry off.

- Lather your salmon in dijon mustard and season thoroughly.
- Lay down slices of lemon on the wood plank and add salmon filets on top until all are on the planks.
- Preheat your charcoal for indirect medium-high temperature (around 375F) using the two zone method.
- Once the fire is ready, add your salmon to the cool side of the grill and cover the pit or grill.
- Let cook for about 10 minutes before rotating the wood planks around. This will help for even cooking.
- The salmon is done when it reaches 145F internal and is caramel brownish-red on the outside. Pull it off once done and let rest for 2 minutes to cool.

- Top the salmon with the cream sauce and fresh dill. Enjoy!
