Here's my go-to entree for a warm-weather cookout. The salmon has a rich, grilled taste that's enhanced by the savory blackberry sauce. It's a nice balance of sweet, smoky and spicy. -Stephanie Matthews, Tempe, AZ

Not a fan of the cedar plank. I found that it gave the salmon a bit of a burnt flavor.

This cedar plank salmon was the best I've ever had! I've cooked a lot of salmon before but this method was definitely my favorite. The salmon turned out so moist and flavorful, and the blackberry sauce was the perfect complement.
