I did not end up cedar-planking them. Something about not soaking the plank early enough... So I broiled them, dotted with a little butter and lemon pepper.

They were good! I grew up eating scallops which were harvested earlier that day and these are not those -- they don't have the sweetness that ultrafresh scallops have. But they had an appropriate flavor and a good texture. I would buy them again.

I would recommend patting them dry before you cook them, however, so they brown more than steam.
