Pros

  • Large size fits well in bigger grills like a Weber gas grill, perfect for grilling multiple or large portions (such as Costco salmon fillets) at once.
  • Solid, reasonably thick cedar construction offers a fresh and strong aroma that enhances the flavor of grilled fish and chicken.
  • High quality and well made, suitable for grilling large slabs of salmon or similar items with consistent results.
  • Highly recommended for larger portions due to size and durability.
  • Can be reused multiple times (typically around 3 uses per plank), making it a good value for casual grilling.
  • Versatile for different types of food like salmon, chicken, and other barbecue items, imparting a pleasant smoky cedar flavor.
  • Cleaning is generally easy with warm water and mild soap.
  • Soaking for at least an hour is straightforward and helps prevent flame flarps during grilling.
  • The boards are long enough to accommodate a gooized fillet and fit well on standard grills with room for vegetables and smoke circulation.
  • Reliable brand with consistent quality recognized in multiple customer experiences.

Cons

  • Durability is limited compared to previous versions or other cedar plank products, with planks lasting about 3 uses instead of the expected 12.
  • Some users report unexpected flarps even after proper soaking, which can be a grilling hazard.
  • Larger size makes soaking cumbersome—finding a container large enough for full submersion can be challenging, and turning the boards to soak fully is a bit of a hassle.
  • The boards are longer than standard baking pans, which may not fit all grilling setups easily and can complicate storage and soaking.
  • Some planks may have small splinters, requiring a bit of caution during handling.
  • Performs better on gas grills than on charcoal grills like the Weber Kettle, where controlling flarps is tougher.
  • Thinner material than earlier versions or competitors, which contributes to quicker wear and less overall lifespan.
  • No significant flavor difference found when soaking in water versus apple juice or cider, so alternative soaking liquids may not add value.

Bottom Line

The Coastal Cuisine Cedar Grilling/Barbecue Planks Set of 7 is a solid choice if you grill larger items regularly and want a fresh, strong cedar aroma to complement salmon, chicken, or other barbecue fare. Expect good initial value and flavor enhancement, but keep in mind the planks wear out faster than similar products, generally lasting only around three uses. Soaking these longer, thicker boards requires forethought and a large container to avoid flare-ups. If you want longer-lasting cedar planks or easier soaking, you might consider exploring other brands or sizes that emphasize durability and convenience. Still, for grilling sizable portions with a pleasant smoky flavor, this set is highly recommended.
