Cooking salmon on a BGE

I am not a seafood person at all and my experience cooking it is shrimps on a skewer.
Having my dad over this weekend for dinner and my wife wants us to cook out for it and recommended we use cedar planks that came with my BGE to cook salmon.
Any words of wisdom on how to do this successfully? I know I can google it or go on naked whiz but wanted to hear what you guys thought.

I remember when I first got my BGE and researching different recipes, they say Alder is the wood to use for seafood. Beyond that, I have nothing. Never done any seafood on my BGE.

Easy to do. You want to make sure that you cook at a hot enough temp (at least medium) to get a char on the plank. DO NOT OVERCOOK. I repeat. DO NOT OVERCOOK.
ETA: I love it with soy, ginger, garlic, onion - when I do it on the plank. I've been criticized for that, but NEVER by someone who has actually tried it.

I'm a low and slow fan when it comes to cooking salmon. It's moist and buttery that way. I haven't done it on the BGE, but in the oven it's divine.

I cook cedar planked salmon on my BGE about once a week.
Heat grill to 400 dome temp and place cedar planks on grate directly over fire. as soon as they start to smoke I'll put the Salmon on and cook to 145 internal. perfect every time.
