Alder Planked Halibut with Horseradish Crumb Topping

Wild Halibut Season it here!  Let's plank some! I'm thinking Alder would be a nice paring for Halibut- it's a mild fish and alder smoke is delicate and subtle.

Alder Planked Halibut w/ Horseradish Crumb Topping

Ingredients:

1 Outdoor Gourmet Alder Grilling Plank
1 Wild Halibut Fillet, Fresh
4 Tablespoons Parsley, chopped
1 ½ cups Bread Crumbs
2 Tablespoons Butter
3 Tablespoons horseradish, peeled + chopped

First: Soak Outdoor Gourmet Alder Grilling Plank in water for at least an hour, but longer is better.

Chop parsley and peel Horseradish root- for this step I highly recommend some sort of eye protection and possibly something to cover your nose and mouth… I used goggles and a bandana.

Then: Turn on the broiler. While it’s heating up, whir bread crumbs, butter, parsley, and horseradish together in a food processor.

**I wore my goggles for this step too. Raw horseradish is strong!! Not to worry though- some of the sharpness calms down when horseradish is cooked.

Place your halibut fillet on the soaked Alder plank, then cover the exposed part of the plank with foil to protect it from the broiler.

Next: Pack your horseradish breadcrumb mixture atop the halibut fillet and place under boiler for 2 minute to brown the crumbs.

Preheat: Grill for 350-400°. Remove halibut from under broiler, discard foil and place plank and halibut with pre-browned crumbs onto grill and close the lid.

Allow the plank to smoke and smolder until the fish is down to your liking. Cooking times with vary depending on the sizes of your halibut fillet.

Finally: Carefully remove from grill, serve with a springy salad and enjoy!

Maple Planked Whiting with White Truffle Balsamic Glaze Grill

Outdoor Gourmet - Maple Planked Whiting with White Truffle Balsamic Glaze

Well, the last of our Outdoor Gourmet 100 Percent Natural Wood Planks has given up the ghost.  But it was a tasty, tasty, ghost!  After a trying Monday at work, I had to get the grillin’ groove on.  So, I stopped by the grocery and picked up a few Whiting fillets, some broccolini, and a white truffle balsamic glaze made by an Italian company called Colavita.

Outdoor Gourmet - Maple Planked Whiting with White Truffle Balsamic Glaze

This cook was a bit different, as I only had one plank left.  Luckily, it was a maple grilling plank, which we have found we like quite a bit.  While the maple doesn’t give off the spicy smoke flavor that we get from the cedar grilling planks, it does impart a subtle mellow smoke flavor that serves as a nice backdrop for the fish and whatever sauce or spice mixture we use.

The other serving I made went inside two of the Outdoor Gourmet Cedar Grilling Wraps I put together and tied using the natural fiber thread that comes in the wrap packs.

Outdoor Gourmet - Maple Planked Whiting with White Truffle Balsamic Glaze Prep

Whiting fillets are a bit ‘skinny,’ so I put two on the maple grilling plank and two in the cedar wraps.  The spice mixture on the fish consisted of sea salt, fresh cracked pepper, a little chili pepper, and some herbes de provence. The broccolini I coated with some light olive oil and then tossed with sea salt and more of the cracked pepper.

I grilled the fish on high for a few minutes to get the grilling plank to smoke a little, and then turned the burners down to medium to let it finish up.  Mid way through I put on the broccolini, which wilted up nicely with a touch of charring.  Good stuff.

If you’ve not used grilling planks, I suggest you give it a try.  I know I’ve been doing a lot of fish with it lately, but this is what happens when a meat eater loves a vegetarian!  I promise to do some land animal very soon, or at least as soon as we renew our stock of Outdoor Gourmet Wood Grilling Planks!

Cedar Plank Grilled Orange Roughy with Fresh Tarragon

Cedar Plank Grilled Orange Roughy with Fresh Tarragon

If you read this blog with any regularity, you know that I’m a huge fan of the Outdoor Gourmet company.  In fact, I’m quickly running through my supply of 100 percent  natural and sustainably  produced Cherry, Maple, and Cedar Grilling Planks  and will soon have to place another order! 


Tonight’s contribution to my  shrinking wood plank supply – Plank Grilled Orange Roughy with Fresh  Tarragon  - was perhaps one of the tastiest efforts in cedar plank grilled  fish I’ve attempted.  Ever.  Yes, folks.  It was that good.

Cedar Plank Grilled Orange Roughy

Seriously.  I thought my last effort with Cherry Plank Grilled Salmon with Amber Agave Nectar Rub was good.  And then there was the Cedar Skewered Gulf Shrimp with Chimichurri Flank Steak,  which was off the hook!  But tonight’s meal just worked.  I’ve had my  disasters, and as Larry over at the BBQ Grail can tell you, it ain’t no  fun when food plans run aground. Of course, the special joy of tonight’s  meal was that I got to share it with the woman I love.   It was but a  small gesture to try and show her how much I appreciate her putting up  with me for the past six years.  Trust me, she deserves a medal!

If you haven’t tried grilling with wood grilling  planks, you should give it a go.  Beware the “pre-packaged” fish on a  plank packs you can find now in your grocer’s freezer section.   It’s  just not right.  Especially when you can select top quality fish from  nearly every corner of the country these days.  Also, all planks are not created equal.  You want to be sure the wood grilling planks you use  are 100 percent natural, produced in the USA.  You wouldn’t spritz your grillables with  pesticide would you?  Well of course you wouldn’t.  So don’t grill on  something that might have the stuff “built in!”  Plus, companies like  Outdoor Gourmet not only source 100 percent untreated Western Red Cedar Grilling Planks, they also do it in a sustainable manner. Know what you eat.  Eat what you love. Welcome to your weekend.
