“How well I remember my first encounter with The Devil's Brew. I happened to stumble across a case of bourbon -- and went right on stumbling for several days thereafter.”

Joey! I don't know where you've been, but, there you are! I hope life has been good to you.
Bourbon Salmon never fails to get my attention. And I don't even drink. But, at last, I get to see your food photos (I love them, as much as photos of your magical garden).
Speaking of magic, why can't MI., winters come with a 'Pause' button?
Hugs to you.
Joey, hi! Please enlighten me. Is it possible to use a cedar plank in the oven? How? Thank you, dear friend! Kathryn xoxo
Yes, dear Kathryn. This is where we purchased our oven cedar plank that also has them for outside grill. http://www.chinookplanks.com, I personally prefer subtle indoor cedar to outside (too intense flavor for me). Hope they are still in business ... the smell of cedar plank/and flavor of salmon is memorable!
Hello dear Marysol Running circles around myself, just saw this! Wrote you an email to catch up ... hope all is well, dear friend. Would love to catch up!
