Where can I find out about board cooking?
I saw a bit on the tele about cooking fish on a cedar-wood board.
It was done on a barbeque with a cover. The wood actually burnt to give the fish flavour.
Can this method of cooking be done in a conventional oven?
(Not the burning bit obviously)
If it can, where can I find recipes?
I don't see how this would add any flavour to the fish, by simply changing the method of cookery to cooking on a board. But i think it would change the flavour if on this cooking show, the person was smoking the fish. But if you're correct, the board would not have been usable afterwards would it have been? If not then yes it is definitely for smoking food.
Im pretty sure what you are after, if there is such a thing, or if it is for smoking food, you would buy it from a bbq store. You use wood chips, and they burn inside the bbq with the lid shut. I live in Australia and know you can buy wood chips from there... Also may have what you're after if i am wrong.
Now if you don't have a bbq then there are other methods to smoke food in an oven.
You need foil, a couple of different deep trays, and woodchips or earl grey tea bags (opened up)
The tray on top has the food content in it, and tray on bottom with the ingredients for smoking. (These trays need to have 2cm gap room for the content to burn on the bottom. The shallow tray on top should be a female tray, which has holes in it. (This is how the smoke flavour seeps into food) Next you seal the trays shut using alfoil. Use an open flame to heat up bottom tray for about a minute or so. No longer. Then take off flame and put in the oven until finished cooking. It will not continue to smoke, will not have smoke in the kitchen. It was only smoking while it was lit on the stove, and has trapped the flavour inside if it was sealed shut! 
It is confusing but it is the only way i know of that i use.. There are definitely many other ways you could probably do this on the internet. The best thing about my method is you can add what ever spices and herbs you want to burn, and just combine them all in the bottom of the tray.
I hope i am right and have helped you. But as i said, i think you should go into a bbq shop or a kitchen shop and ask.
EDIT: bellow comments are interesting, didn't know that, thanks
