Collection: Fathers Day

The newest addition to our BC Coastal line-up is our all-natural cedar grill scrapers. These are hand crafted on Vancouver Island and are a nontoxic, sustainable way to clean your BBQ, stove top or oven grill.

We highly recommend the use of a cedar grill scraper over the common wire brush scrapers as these wires have been known to break off and can cause serious and possibly lethal damage if ingested by humans or pets.

The heat from the grill forms the groove to become a custom scraper designed for each individual BBQ. This product is designed to form with time and use and the cedar means it is extremely durable and will last for years.

We offer two different sizes of the grill scraper (12” and 18”). The size you choose depends on what size of BBQ you use; a bigger BBQ will need a longer scraper in order to reach across the grill. Both sizes have a bevelled edge for aesthetics and comfort in the hand of the user.

Our scrapers have a jute string and informational Hang Tag with Barcoding for display and handy for the customer as it can be conveniently hung on the BBQ.

Directions for use

Prep or seasoning is not needed before using your grill scraper.
In order to start the process of forming the scraper press the grill scraper firmly on your grill (branded side up) and apply even pressure to it.
Move it back and forth over the grate’s multiple times. This action will cause the grooves to form and remove any charred debris from the top and sides of the grill.
You can also season your Grill by dipping the end of the scraper into Cooking Oil and apply by moving your Grill Scraper back and forth over the grills.
Clean your grill scraper after each use by simply wiping any charred debris from the end. At the end of your Grilling season, you can wash your grill scraper in the dishwasher.

Note: Private Labelling, Custom Logo Branding for Promotional Gifts is available on all Grill Scrapers.  

About BC Coastal Grilling Planks

B.C. Coastal is a wood manufacturing company specializing in the production of sustainable “Value-added” Western Red Cedar (Thuja Plicata) cooking products. Operations are based on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada located within the Coastal Forest Region, the primary source of Western Red Cedar tree species in the world.

The Company is owned and managed by the (Livelton-Moore) family whose three generations of forest industry involvement and understanding ensures a stable wood supply and quality end product.

“Releasing the Flavours of the West Coast Rain Forest”

Cooking using Western Red Cedar (Thuja Plicata) wood is a tradition handed down throughout the years from the First Nations people where it was found that the wood easily split with primitive tools, soaked up water to prevent burning and in addition, imparted a slightly sweet, smoky flavour to the food source being cooked. The most common type of food to cook on a WRC Plank is Salmon, however many other types of fish, seafoods, meat, poultry, and vegetables work well, too!

About The Product

The WRC wood used is sourced primarily from the Coastal Forest Region and purchased in Rough Green Lumber form, the wood is first kiln or air dried to remove most of the moisture in the wood. Then planed on all 4 sides through a moulder and chamfered or rounded on the top 2 edges to reduce the chance of obtaining slivers. It is then sanded to round the corners and chamfered on the ends for appearance. Each Plank is then Logo Branded, wrapped, labelled, ready for delivery to you the Consumer.

Having been Kiln or Air Dried that removes the moisture in the Cells of wood, the Plank(s) when soaked in any liquid (predominantly water), will soak the liquid back into the cells.

Can all be used in the oven as well as the barbeque.

The planks are 9/16” (14mm) thick, which is great for any type of food, but necessary for thicker cuts of seafood, poultry, and meats. Each plank can withstand 2-3 uses on a BBQ, and multiple uses in an oven when directions are followed correctly.

Directions for Use

The first step in creating a memorable West Coast meal is to soak; this means to completely submerge the grilling plank in water or any liquid of your choosing. Soak for 2-6 hours or, ideally, overnight, if you plan ahead. The next step is to prepare the food. If using BC Coastal Grilling Rubs: measure out 1-2 Tablespoons of oil to make a paste. Slather the food with the rub and set aside.
While preheating the BBQ on High for 5-10 minutes, wipe excess water from the plank and place the food skin-side down (if seafood).
Turn one side of the BBQ down to Low and place plank on this side. Leave the other burner(s) on Med-Low and close the lid. You will hear popping and see smoke start to come from the BBQ – this is good! Check the plank frequently for flare-ups, which will occur because of the drips from the food. Use a water spray bottle to stop any flare-ups. Ideally, the plank should be smoldering, not flaring. Smoldering creates the smoke that gives the food a wonderful smoky flavour.
It is unnecessary to flip or turn seafood or veggies when plank cooking. Meats and poultry must be flipped at the halfway point in order to be cooked through.
Remember that the liquid in the plank will steam the food; this means the food will be nice and moist and might not appear to be done. Do the flake test with seafood, and check meats and poultry as you would on a regular BBQ (using a food thermometer is a great idea). Generally, cooking time will be doubled because of the indirect cooking method. Usual cooking times for seafood will be 5-6 minutes per inch of thickness.
If grill marks are wanted for appearance, a quick searing is suggested just before plating. This works well for steak, pork, and poultry, but isn’t recommended with seafood.

Other Tips:
- Can all be used in the oven as well as the barbeque.
- Placing tin foil underneath the plank during cooking will help increase the lifespan of it.
- Another way to keep the longevity of your plank is to turn the burner(s) directly underneath the plank off, and just use adjacent burners as form of indirect cooking.
- Always use care when handling hot grilling planks. If serving directly to the table, placing them on a baking sheet or appropriate tray is suggested Grilling planks

The hottest of Tofino Hot Sauces' line of sauces - this beauty brings some heat. This sauce is like none you have ever had before.

*Note: for anyone who is a “tough guy” hot sauce eater. While this is the hottest of our product line, it is still well within a ‘consumable’ limit of heat. Tofino Hot Sauce Co's focus is on flavor, not intensity*

A sauce that is hot, bold and not for the feint of heart. Use it in cocktails, as a marinade for BBQ or for a “Tuff enough” hot sauce competition.

Allergen Statement: This product is not made in an allergen free certified facility.  There are no nuts or other allergens used or on site during the production. Product does contain night-shades and alliums which can be an allergen to some people

About Tofino Hot Sauce Co.

While sitting around the pub table in Nova Scotia enjoying some of Nova Scotia's iconic 'Dave's World Famous Wing Sauce' the idea for Tofino Hot Sauce was formed. Tofino - the perfect place for an iconic hot sauce, did not yet have one; so creator and flavor-maker, Lise Richard, decided it was up to her to create one.

Since her mother was a school teacher for her career and loves plays on words she said "...and you can call it 'Hot Tuff' because you think you're hot stuff" to which Lise replied, "just for you Ma, I will.". Each flavor contains a unique three chile pepper blend with each chile relating back to a surf adventure or food experience had by Lise. A sweet-vegetable blend is the base to these intensely flavorful sauces that will elevate your tastebuds; not burn your palate.

Spicy Lovers, like the name suggests, is a handmade salsa for those who love all things spicy. Spicy Lovers is a blend of dry chilli and spices giving you just the right touch of spicy flavour to your plates. 

Spicy Lovers is free of preservatives, gluten, dairy, artificial flavours and colours, has no added sugar or MSG. 

Ingredients

Dry Chili Peppers, Jalapeño Peppers, Carrots, Canola Oil, Fresh Onion, Garlic, Cilantro, Vinegar, Spices and Sea Salt.

About Islanders Authentic Mexican Salsa

I am Lily Rechon-Reguet, I am a Canadian citizen with a Mexican background. I moved from Mexico to Vancouver in 2006 at 24 years old. In Vancouver, I studied as a Web Designer and System Developer at BCIT and worked in the food industry. Married to a lovely French guy Thierry, I had the opportunity to live and work in the food industry in France for three years, where I learned new food processing techniques.

In Mexico, I went to the University of Industrial Engineering. I had the opportunity to work for 6 years in a candy factory; which involved the development of new products, also the production and sales department as part of the team.

When I returned from France, I discovered that many people had a desire for Mexican food. Then I decided to make my line of fresh Mexican salsas that allows people to create their dishes with a Mexican taste. At this moment Islanders Fresh Authentic Mexican Sauce was born. Our family business is based on making and selling fresh, traditional salsas, using authentic traditional Mexican recipes with fresh whole food and local ingredients. Keeping the salsas free of chemicals, gluten, dairy, artificial flavours and colours, MSG, and with no added sugar. Giving you a healthy, 100% authentic and unique Mexican taste.

If you can't visit Mexico now, I invite you to have a little piece of Mexico on your plate. Enjoy!

About Mr. Cooper's Pies

THE ORIGINAL / OUR FOUNDER
Mr. Norman Cooper as born in Coventry, England in 1914. He travelled to London at the age of 18, where he worked in the food markets. He obtained work with the British Lever Brothers & soon after was sent to Nigeria (British West Africa) where we spent the next twenty years living, marrying & working as a District Trading Officer. Norman then served as a commissioned officer with the British Armed Forces where he “trained and secured his territory for the crown” These were the most wonderful and happiest times of his life – he often regaled his audiences with colorful & entertaining tales of Africa.

YOUR MEAT PIE EXPERTS / OUR HISTORY
This is where Mr. Cooper worked developing a distribution system for the food division of Maple Leaf services (forerunner to the Canadian Armed Forces exchange system) for a number of years. After working as a business consultant in Ottawa for a few years, Norman moved his family to Edmonton where he was employed with developing IGA. That is where he would later come out of retirement to begin Mr. Cooper’s Pie – a chain of restaurants with Mr. Brian Cooper in 1982, at 68 years old. Mr. Cooper’s Pies quickly grew a following for their scrumptious pies around Calgary – successfully expanding to 11 chain restaurants. It was there they sold fresh baked daily quiches, sweet pies, sausage rolls and of course English Meat Pies! Unfortunately, due to the economic crash in Calgary Mr. Cooper’s Pies closed but the timeless recipes lived on through our family – all these years. Brian continued to bake & make pies throughout his children's lives – raising them up on these classic pies!

FAST FORWARD TO TODAY
In March of 2020 when the global Covid-19 pandemic hit – our family, like many others, struggled with the closing of their small businesses. It was at this time that Mr. Brian Cooper teamed up with local community member Shane Dagan, of the Steveston Seafood House. Brian owned a Bed & Breakfast in Richmond for over 20 years and Shane found himself in a similar situation with his restaurant, open since 1978, being closed as well. That is when the family decided to pivot and the resurgence of Mr. Cooper’s Pies began. Mr. Cooper started producing pies out of the Steveston Seafood House. With Shane’s savvy business and community involvement combined with Mr. Cooper’s timeless English Pie recipes – it didn’t take long to amass a loyal local following. They began distributing to local butchers & retailers throughout the lower mainland. Now with over 50 retail accounts – Mr. Cooper’s Pies proudly provides local, handmade pies throughout the Lower Mainland and Victoria! They also recently won “Best Mid-Sized Business of the Year” by the Richmond Chamber of Commerce for 2021. We strongly believe that it was our family’s ability to pivot during these difficult times that secured Steveston Seafood House this prestigious award and we look forward to continuing our expansion throughout the Lower Mainland, British Columbia and beyond!
