<br>Next time youre looking to smoke some fish, give this recipe a try, you wont be disappointed!
<br>
<br>Ingredients:
<br>4 C Dark Brown Sugar
<br>1 C Pickling Salt
<br>Garlic Powder (to taste)
<br>Cracked Black Pepper (to taste)
<br>
<br>Begin with skinless salmon or trout fillets. Cut the fillets into manageable sized pieces being sure to remove any bones.
<br>
<br>Mix ingredients. Generously cover each piece of salmon in a glass baking dish. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours. Flip the fish around once or twice throughout this time to be sure each piece is evenly covered in seasoning.
<br>
<br>The brine will have become a soupy mess after the salt has done its job of pulling the moisture from the fish.
<br>
<br>Rinse each piece and set it out to air dry on your smoker racks for a few hours until a pellicle forms - the tacky (not wet) layer covering the fish. I like to apply pepper at this point as well.
<br>
<br>Now simply smoke for your desired time! Thats it. Plain, simple, and quite delicious!
