It's a perfect storm!
It's cold today high 47F
Found good looking fresh ( farm raised) salmon on sale
I gave up red meat for Lent!
Two pieces in the brine 1/4 cup kosher salt, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tsp "seafood rub"
Two pieces to grill tonite.
Using my CB-500 as smoke chamber & a 6 in sawdust maze with sugar maple as smoke generator.
The ones for grilling get 30 min smoke & then seared.
The cold smoked get 8 hrs, then vacuum sealed & frozen.
