Trying Out Something New - Feedback Requested

[rennea]

Has anyone used these yet?? I don't know what to think of them yet. I would like to try them and would like any feed back from anybody who has used them.
Thanks

I haven't used them yet but at my cluster meeting we figured that they were over $3 each with shipping for a disposible plank... we have a contest going to see who can sell any!

I'm kind of think that it's a little pricey for disposable planks but would make a nice special Father's day gift maybe done up with some of our oil and rubs!

I think that they will be last year's equivalent to the tiles paper napkins.......I don't see them selling very well.

I think that'd be a good selling point! Probably the only real selling point.

A friend had a party and I ask her if I could add the napkins to her order that way I would get the 20% off and minus commission. I use them in my display and people seem to really like them. I think the key is to use them somehow when you set up. Don't know, works for me

I got excited when I first saw the planks then I saw the recommended usage combined with the cost and thought the same as above... I'm sure somewhere though they will sell! I do like my salmon on the grill in the summer...

I have never used grilling planks so I thought that they were a little pricy....who knows...maybe i'll give them a shot and fall in love with them.

I thought the same when I first saw them! One of my favorite restaurants has a specialty = Planked Whitefish...love it! However, anywhere that sells grills and grilling supplies also sells planks - at about $3-4 each, and are reusable...so I'm not sure how to market these - I'd still like to hear from someone who has actually used them. (Mine should be here any day now - but we have 3 feet of snow on our deck, so won't be grilling for awhile!)

Funny, I bought some planks from maybe William Sonoma for a Father's day gift a few years ago too but even those I think were cheaper? I wonder how well they will sell??

How exactly do you use the planks?

They have a little demo on CC...I think you wet it first, then season your fish, put it on the plank & grill it.....

So they can be used with a gas grill? I'll have to go to CC and check it out. Thanks

I think they can be used anywhere but indoors....HTH
