Smoking Salmon

Post by bolo »

Smoked the Salmon for a few hours. Sprinkle some fish rub and it turned out great. Also, cooked some chicken w/ cheese sausages and spares.

I know what you mean. Some bbq guys get carried away with their pits. At least mine is small and not too crazy. :D

Smoking Salmon is very easy. You can use a Weber Smokey Mountain or a Weber Kettle. The key is offset the heat and cook the fish at 200-250 degrees. You can add a few wood chunks for wood flavor. For gas grill you can do the same using wood chips. Make sure to soak the wood chips so it does not burn out quickly. Sometimes I use a aluminum tray w/ water and place it underneath the fillet. This prevents the fillet to direct heat and the steam from the water keeps it moist. Usually it takes about 2 hours depending on fillet size and cooking temp.

Nice Mobile Meat wagon Bolo ! :toast:

I used to play softball with a guy who built mobile smoker/grill / kitchens. Every couple of weeks he'd have a new one to "test out" . He would always have a nice tile countertop to work on. He did one for the softball team that had a spot for a keg as well. We were sponsored by a liquor store at the time so there was a pony keg at every game.

I smoked a king fish on my propane grill. It turned out okay. I kept one side of the burner on and the fish on the other used some wood chip in a foil basket over the heat. took around 2 hours as well. First time smoking fish so I thought it was good. but then again I didnt have anything to judge it against.

The thing about smoking fish is trying to get as much smoke flavor possible. This is why I like to smoked the fish as long as possible. I tend to not like charcoal briquettes like Kingsford because it produces a acidity taste. Most people can't tell the difference because they don't know any better. I like a clean smoked flavor so using lump charcoal or seasoned wood is the key. Also, not to over cook the fish. It has to be perfectly cooked so the fish is soft and not hard. When I finished smoking my fish, the fish taste awesome. When I add the fresh ingredients to make the dip it puts it over the top.

In 2010 I will start competing again. So I need to work on my cooking skills. I have a friend who I compete against that wants to join up and compete as a team. He is a private Captain for the owner of Hendricks Motorsports and he owner of 2 Yellowfins.

Palm Beach and Hallandale. No exact dates have been set yet. I usually don't tell people when I compete because most of the time they just get in my way and want free food.

Yeah bragging rights and some titi bar money. You do not make much money competing in BBQ. The meat alone cost just as much as the entry fee. Entry fees are about $300-400 per team.
