What people have said....
On Saturday I had the pleasure of using your Cedar Roasting Plank to cook a piece of salmon. I used wine, water and lime in which to soak the plank for 24 hours. I placed the salmon skin side up on a bed of dill and placed it in the oven to cook. The aromas produced were to die for and made anticipation of eating the salmon that much greater. The salmon was very succulent on eating, the plank giving a very subtle flavour to it. The plank probably provided the best medium for cooking fish. I would certainly use the plank again and look forward to doing so.
Kind regards

We met you on Saturday and today at Garson's in Titchfield . I have just finished eating a lovely dinner cooked on top of a couple of your planks on our gas BBQ.
The steak was very juicy, our field mushrooms topped with goats cheese were fab and, if we hadn't spoken to you for over 30 mins on Saturday, we would never of thought of cooking Advocado and Kiwi Fruit on the BBQ, both of which were to die for.
We did pig out tonight and had Salmon and Prawns with the Advocado as well - all of the food was juicy and tasted so much better than normal. Hope to see you at the New Forest Show.
So glad we bumped into you on Saturday - next purchase will be a roasting plank for the oven.
With kind regards

I was surprised when presented with a wooden roasting plank – it seemed a daft idea to put wood in an oven.
Amazingly it works! Fish and meat cooks evenly and without drying out. There is a hint of oak flavour which is
delicious. I have been won over.

"I doubt you will remember but we came to your stall at the Wimborne Food Festival on sunday. My parents bought an oven roasting plank and two of the BBQ ones (my mum was the one being very critical but then bought you a coffee). Anyway thank you very much for the wood papers. We just tried them for the first time tonight with some mackerel fillets, green pepper and chili and did the same thing in the cedar wood paper and also wrapped in foil.
The difference was amazing. The one in the wood not only had a nicer texture but also had a lot more flavour. It also retained all the
moisture within the fish which was great when compared to the fish cooked in the foil, where there was a lot of liquid left around the
fish.
I think we are trying the oven plank soon with a lamb shoulder and am sure it will be great, the BBQ ones might take a bit longer to try!!
Well we just wanted to send you a note to say thank you for introducing us to your way of cooking and we're sure that we will
continue to use it"

I loved cooking with the plank – it’s extremely easy to use, it looks great, and the difference in the meat produced by the plank is so distinct: how tender and moist the meat is, with a wood-smoked quality that will have you salivating. And, if like me, you think that the meat is the star of whichever dish it appears in, you won’t be able to resist the chance to do something different with the flavour."
A definite Chilli and Chocolate recommendation for The Roasting Plank.
Bought a Cedar Roasting Plank from you at Sturminster Cheese show and were so pleased with it re cooking our fish , we bought an oak roasting plank at Shaftesbury Xmas market. One good attempt with fish- just plain white fish fillet cooked on the plank on a bed of sundried tomatoes preserved in olive oil , came out very succulent
Thanks for being at the right place at the right time and introducing this style of cooking to us.

Staff at John Browns Garden Centre at Three Legged Cross are going mad over BBQ cooking using planks of wood !
news release from Golden Acres Group
Centre Manager Jeremy Green and garden centre assistant Glynn Whittington are so excited about the new flavours and moistness they achieve from cooking on BBQ planks that they are both cooking their fish and meat on them for their families. Jeremy said " The flavours are wonderful. We started trying the planks when we began selling them alongside our BBQs late last year and now we're getting hooked"
