Total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) is most frequently used along with a serum iron test to evaluate people suspected of having either iron deficiency or iron overload. These two tests are used to calculate the transferrin saturation, a more useful indicator of iron status than just iron or TIBC alone.
As cedar plank cooking is becoming more and more popular I am often asked if you can you reuse cedar planks? The correct answer is both yes and no. All TrueFireÂ® cedar planks are meant made to be one time use only â we have optimized the thickness of our planks to infuse the best flavor into the food without increasing the cook time. The general rule of thumb is the thicker the plank the longer the cook time.
You get one use out of each plank. If using a gas grill, try to get the plank off the grill quickly because you don't want a lot of ash falling into the grill. If you are using a charcoal grill you can just let it burn off and clear out the ashes later. Plank grilling really is a convenient and easy way to grill.
