More Salmon

[Toby Keil]

Salmon was on sale at our local market so I bought large piece and cut it up into smaller portions and tosssed some into the smoker. This time I used a soy sauce type brine as I wanted to try something different. The color is very nice and I cant wait to try it.

Nice job Toby, how long did you smoke them and did you taste them yet?

They tasted great! In fact, I’m going to smoke more this weekend but I’m going to use brown sugar in the brine instead of white. I didn’t want to fire up one of my big smokers so I used a Little Chief smoker I bought on Craigslist for $25 bucks. The heating element in the smoker is weak so I let them cook for 9hrs using hickory and some apple. I’m going to modify the smoker at some point with a lager heat source and a thermometer.

Glad to hear they tasted great I was a bit worried they may have been over done, just from the color, but tasting is everything, and they do look great.
