It’s a simple recipe that’s just perfect for entertaining. Creamy mozzarella is topped with sweet preserves for a restaurant quality nibble that will have your guests asking for more!
Cedar wood conducts heat much more slowly than if you were to put the cheese in a pan, so you get just the right gooey consistency without burning your dish.
It’s made in minutes, with just two ingredients! A little bit flash, yet so simple!

You’ll need:
- A large mozzarella ball, as fresh as you can get. Buffalo mozzarella is best!
- 3 tablespoons of apricot, cherry or strawberry chutney
Step 1:
Soak a cedar gourmet grilling plank in water for an hour at least. This will keep it from burning.
Step 2:
Preheat your grill to medium high.
Step 3:
Place your cheese on the plank and add preserves on top. Place plank on top of the grate.
Step 4:
Grill for 10 minutes with lid closed or until it appears to almost burst at the sides.
You can mix it up a little with these variations:
- Use Brie instead of Mozzarella
- Top it with honey
- Sprinkle chopped nuts on top
- Drizzle with balsamic glaze
Some serving suggestions:
- Crostini
- Crackers
- Flatbread
- Thick Tomato Slices
