This refreshing salsa packs a hit of both heat, sweet, and cherry smoke. You can genuinely taste the fruit in cherry wood smoke. Just like any salsa this one gets better as it chills and the flavors mingle.

Method
- Preheat a grill or oven to 500˚ F, soak the planks in hot water for at least 15 minutes.
