Try this delicious cedar planked Camembert at your next party. It is a great appetizer. Cheese is exceptional at taking on the flavors of smoke. Cedar is delicious, but try maple and cherry planks too! Keep a variety of crackers ready. Beware, this is extra tantalizing and will go fast.

Total Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients:

  • 7×7″ Cedar Plank
  • 1 round of Camembert
  • 1/4 cup Pomegranate seeds
  • 3 sprigs fresh Thyme
  • Crackers/Bread

Chef's Tip

It is really important to keep
the rind of the cheese fully in
tact (no sneaking a slice before grilling).
The rind encases the cheese and
protects it from melting all over your grill!

Directions:

  1. Soak Cedar Plank in warm water for 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven or grill to 400°F.
  3. Set Camembert on plank, garnish with pomegranate and thyme. Place loaded plank on grill and close lid.
  4. Have a spray bottle of water handy for flare-ups.
  5. Remove from grill when cheese is lightly browned and bubbling.
  6. Serve with crackers or bread. Enjoy!
