Grill paper is a new way to add flavor to barbecued food, made from aromatic wood and soaked in water before use. It can be wrapped around food to seal in flavor and is available in packs of ten for around $15-20 USD. Recipes and variety can be found online.

Paper grilling is a relatively new way to add flavor to your barbecued foods. Some people use grill boards, which are large boards made from different types of aromatic wood that can significantly improve the taste of food. These are reusable and look like cutting boards. Grilling paper tends to work on the same principles, except it’s thinner and lighter and can only be used once. It looks like plywood and is made from the same types of wood used to grill the planks. Some popular choices are alder, oak and cedar.

The benefit of using grill paper, which usually comes in 6-by-6-12-inch sheets, is that it can be wrapped around the food to seal the taste. Since it is paper and can catch fire, it must be soaked in water before being used on the grill. Some people add more flavor by dipping the paper in juice, spirits like whiskey or vinegar. If you soak the paper with alcohol you need to be careful as it can make the paper more flammable.

Grilling paper may not always wrap securely. If you have trouble keeping it tightly wrapped around your food, you can use braided wire to braid it. It can really make wonderful and different dishes from your barbecue, as it allows food to be partially steamed and grilled under direct heat.

You’ll find grill paper typically sold in packs of ten since you can only use it once. The price ranges from around $15-20 US Dollars (USD) for a pack of ten, depending on the size of the card. You can check barbecue supply stores for paper grill, but it may be difficult to find much variety. Specialty food stores are also a good place to look for it. When these don’t provide you with enough selection, the internet is probably the best source, which will offer you a large variety of wood types.

You can also find many recipes online that use this paper and grill planks. Foods that have never worked on a barbecue before, like cheese, are accessible. You can try steamed smoked vegetables with cheese sauce, smoked steak with wine soaked mushrooms or a variety of other creative dishes to tempt the appetites of your family and guests. You can even add flavor to bread or baked potatoes using grill paper, which can complement main dishes.
