This recipe came from a cook book Plank Cooking Plank cooking creates a nice smoky flavor and is a moist way of barbecuing. Ingredients:
4 baking potatoes |
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine |
2/3 cup milk |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1 tablespoon bacon bits |
salt and pepper |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional) |
1/4 cup cut fresh chives or 1/4 cup green onion |
Directions:
1. Plank must be presoaked for a minimum of 1 hour up to 24 hours. Plank can be cedar, maple, alder or oak.
2. Pierce potatoes to a allow steam to escape, and bake in microwave for 16 minutes on high.
3. When cool enough to handle, cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out cooked potato, being careful not to damage the skin, which is now the filling shell.
4. In a bowl mix well: scooped potato, butter or margarine, milk, cheese, cut chives or onions, garlic, bacon bits, and salt and pepper.
5. Fill potato shells with this mixture.
6. Now place on a wet plank in preheated BBQ. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Believe it or not, this can also be baked in the kitchen oven at 375°F also on a wet plank. Excellent with plank cooked salmon.
