Steps:
- In a bowl, mix together salt, sugar, brown sugar and peppercorns. Spread extra-wide aluminum foil a little longer than the length of the fish and top with an equally long layer of plastic wrap. Sprinkle 1/3 of the rub onto the plastic. Lay 1 side of the fish skin down onto the rub. Sprinkle 1/3 of the rub onto the flesh of the salmon. Place second side of salmon, flesh down onto the first side. Use the remaining rub to cover the skin on the top piece. Fold plastic over to cover then close edges of foil together and crimp tightly around the fish. Place wrapped fish onto a plank or sheet pan and top with another plank or pan. Weigh with a heavy phone book or a brick or two and refrigerate for 12 hours. Flip the fish over and refrigerate another 12 hours. Some juice will leak out during the process so make sure there's a place for the runoff to gather. Unwrap fish and rinse off the cure with cold water. Pat salmon with paper towels then place in a cool, dry place (not the refrigerator) until the surface of the fish is dry and matte-like, 1 to 3 hours depending on humidity. A fan may be used to speed the process. Smoke fish (see Note) over smoldering hardwood chips or sawdust, keeping the temperature inside the smoker between 150 degrees F and 160 degrees F until the thickest part of the fish registers 150 degrees. Serve immediately or cool to room temperature, wrap tightly and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Cook's Note: Trout, mackerel, and bluefish also smoke well.

Steps:
- Mix 1 cup brown sugar and kosher salt together in a small bowl.
- Spread a thin layer of the brown sugar mixture in the bottom of a 9-inch baking pan. Arrange 2 to 3 salmon fillets on top; cover with some of the brown sugar mixture. Repeat layers until all the salmon fillets are coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
- Preheat a smoker to 195 degrees F (91 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Rinse brown sugar mixture off salmon fillets. Brush fillets lightly with honey and sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar on top.
- Pour cola-flavored beverage into the smoker's water pan; add water to within 1 inch of the top. Place half of the wood chips around the perimeter of the hot charcoal. Place salmon on the cooking racks.
- Cook salmon, adding more wood chips if needed, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 2 hours. Cool before serving, at least 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Cut salmon into 1/2-inch strips.
- Prepare dry brine: Combine sugar, 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sea salt, garlic, orange zest, ginger, black pepper, cayenne, and chile flakes in a bowl. Put 1/2 inch of brine on the bottom of a large dish. Layer salmon strips on top and cover with remaining brine. Cover and refrigerate for 8 to 12 hours.
- Take salmon out of the brine and place on wire racks; discard brine. Dry in front of a fan for at least 24 hours; the longer you dry the better texture the salmon will be.
- When ready to smoke the salmon, preheat a smoker to 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
- At the same time, combine brown sugar, honey, red wine, rum, cayenne, and black pepper for glaze in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until thick, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Brush salmon with glaze and put in the preheated smoker. Smoke, brushing with glaze every hour, until salmon is dry to the touch, 4 to 5 hours.

STOVE TOP SMOKER BRINED SALMON
This is not a difficult recipe to make, but it does require some advanced planning. You may wish to brine the fish the night before serving, setting it out to dry just before bed, and smoke it upon awakening. Brining and drying the fish prior to cooking creates a protective "skin" (or pellicle) on the outer surface of the fish. This film helps to hold in the moisture and provides a concentration of flavors from the brine. The brine basically consists of 4 cups liquid, usually water; a generous quantity of salt, usually some form of sugar, and additional ingredients to flavor the brine. If you have a larger quantity of fish, just make additional brine. Throw brine away after use. Select your brine, or make up your own, using the proportions suggested

Steps:
- Dissolve the salt and sugar in the boiling water. Combine remaining ingredients. Cool to room temperature. Pour into a baggie large enough to accommodate both the brine and the fish. Be sure fish is completely immersed in brine. Soak 1-4 hours.
- Gently rinse the fish under slow running water, removing some of the brine. Remove the lid from your smoker. Tilt the rack into the smoker, using the legs of the rack to rest against the lip of the smoker. Lay your fillet, skin side down, on the rack. Place rack in a cool, well ventilated place, such as a cool oven with the door propped open. Place a small fan blowing into the oven if possible. Allow to rest until a glossy film, or pellicle forms, that feels tacky-dry to the touch, about 4-8 hours.
- Prepare your smoker using the chips of your choice, about 1/4-1/3 cup total. Start smoker on high, and when light wisps of white smoke begin to rise, turn heat down to low and cover. Smoke over very low heat. This may take 1.5-2 hours. Check occasionally. Fish should appear opaque and lighter in color.
- This may be served warm or cold, or at room temperature. If you cool it prior to serving, the skin is easily removed.
- Easy Green Mayonnaise: 1 cup mayonnaise, 5 ounces chopped frozen spinach, cooked, squeezed dry, and cooled.
- 1/4 cup fresh herb of your choice (dill, tarragon, etc.) -- Combine the ingredients in a blender or food processor, process until well blended. Serve with smoked salmon.

Steps:
- To make the dry cure, combine all the ingredients. This will make about one cup. The mixture may be kept, covered, for six months or more. For this recipe, you will need four tablespoons.
- Rub each salmon fillet on both sides with two tablespoons of the dry cure and place in a glass baking dish. Refrigerate for six hours, or overnight.
- Remove fillets from the dish and rinse quickly under running water, just to remove excess cure. Place fillets on a raised grid surface to allow air to circulate around them. Leave to dry for three hours, or until the surface is dry and shiny.
- Forty-five minutes before cooking, light the charcoal fire.
- When ready to cook, throw a handful of wood chips on the coals. Add hot water to the water pan of the smoker, or an improvised smoker (see note). Place the fillets on the grid over the water pan. Cover with the lid and leave the fish for at least 45 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Check periodically and replenish the fuel or chips if necessary. The smoker temperature should not exceed 190 degrees (use an oven thermometer). The fish is done when the flesh is firm to the touch.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the olive oil, lemon juice and pepper to blend.
- Remove the fish from the grill and cut crosswise into serving pieces. Serve the fish immediately on its own with the vinaigrette, or on a bed of greens dressed with the vinaigrette.

- Combine all of the Dry Brine ingredients together in a bowl and mix well. I broke the bay leaves up so they were more evenly distributed.
- After 6-8 hours, remove the salmon from the dry brine mixture and rinse it extremely well. This is critically important. I have made the mistake of not rinsing it thoroughly and the end product was way too salty.
- Finally, it is time to smoke the salmon. Set up your grill for indirect heat at 200-225 degrees. Add a few blocks of hardwood (I used Hickory)
- If you want a sweeter salmon, baste it every 30-45 minutes with either pure honey or maple syrup. The honey will liquify very quickly and drip down the sides, so make sure you have a drip pan underneath otherwise you will get an unpleasant smoky flavor.
