SMOKED FISH ( BRINE RECIPE AND SMOKING DIRECTIONS)
This is a long time family recipe that was recently shared with me. Looking for something different to do with fish? This is it! We usually plate this and allow everyone to serve themselves. Wonderful fresh off the smoker as well as COLD from the refrigerator as you would smoked salmon, regardless of they type of fish used. After smoking this will keep for about a week in the refrigerator. I do not care for oily types of fish done this way but many prefer them. I like to smoke whitefish, salmon, perch, or trout. Feel free to use any fish you prefer. Plan AHEAD! Need to brine for about 12 hours and smoke for about 6-8.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients very well until sugar is disolved.
- Split the fish into halves and soak them for about 12 hours (more or less) in the refrigerator.
- Prepare your fire using charcoal and a mix of old birch (with bark removed) or apple wood or you can use just charcoal.
- Place fish in smoker and allow to smoke for about 6-8 hours for smoking, depending on the outside temperature and how hot your smoker gets of course.

SMOKED FISH
I learned this up in Kenai, Alaska from an old guy named Swede, who had spent 30-some summers up there salmon fishing (and smoking). It is great for salmon or any other fairly strong, oily fish! I've used it on salmon, tuna, and swordfish. Prep time include setting (drying) time. Double the recipe if budget and smoker size permits.

Steps:
- Mix all brine ingredients thoroughly.
- Cut fish in 1-2" pieces, leaving skin on.
- If fish is fresh, soak for 1-1/2 hours; if it has been frozen, soak for 45-60 minutes.
- Remove fish from marinade and place on smoker-racks skin-side down.
- Allow to glaze at room temperature for at least 4 hours, and preferably overnight.
- I usually set a fan to blow across the fish and help them get dry to the touch and look very glazed.
- Cold-smoke (at 120-140 degrees F) for 8-12 hours to obtain desired flavor.
- Then hot smoke (at 180-200 degrees F) for 1-2 hours or finish in a 300 degree F oven for 30-45 minutes to get desired texture.
- I do not like a mushy fish, so I cook it until it firms up, though it's hard to tell, though, until after it has cooled down.
- Cool to room temperature, freeze on cookie sheets, package, and store in freezer.
- Best with stronger flavored, oily fish such as salmon, tuna, or swordfish; in general, mild fish smoke poorly.
- Notes: I use a Brinkmann Smokn Pit water-smoker.
- The water helps to keep the temperature low, and the steam in the smoke keeps meat more moist during long cooking.
- My smoker is intended for charcoal smoking, but for fish, I place soaked wood chips in a metal (not foil, foil will burn through, use real metal) sitting on top of a cheap hot plate (with a rheostat control, not just an on-off switch), which sits on a brick so the pan is up under the bottom of the smoker, where the charcoal pan normally sets.
- Adjust temperature by adjusting hot plate up or down (usually somewhere between low and medium), and throw another handful of wet wood chips into the pie plate every 30-40 minutes, when the smoke stops generating.
- Depending on my mood, and what kind of wood chips are available, I usually smoke fish with alder, cherry, oak, maple, orange or lemon wood (on the rare occasion I can find orange or lemon) Alder and cherry are usually the easiest to find, and they both work beautifully for fish.
- Do not use hickory or mesquite; they are just too strong and completely overwhelm fish!
- I usually double or triple this recipe; I have rigged my double-size smoker to take up to 4 racks to handle the larger amounts.
- Since this whole process takes a lot of time, the little extra effort is worth while, and the smoked fish freezes well, lasting a couple years with only a little deterioration in flavor or texture.
- SAFETY NOTE: Needless to say, DO THIS OUTDOORS!
- Cabon monoxide KILLS!
SMOKED FISH DIP
Steps:
- Combine the cream cheese, jalapeno, celery, onion, Worcestershire and hot sauce in a food processor and mix until smooth. Break up the fish into the processor and process again until just mixed but not mushy. Thin the mixture with sour cream to a spreading consistency.
- Chill for 1 hour before serving. Serve with crackers or fresh raw vegetables.

SMOKED FISH PLATTER
Elegant whitefish salad is presented in its skin, nestled beside delicious smoked salmon and garnished with olives, lemon, and dill. Don't be overwhelmed by its lovely appearance: Using store-bought smoked fish allows you a little more time to spend on the presentation.

Steps:
- Remove flesh from fish, leaving skin in one piece, reserving skin. Discard bones. Coarsely chop flesh (you should have about 4 cups). Transfer to a medium bowl. Add celery, onion, and mayonnaise. Mix gently to combine.
- Line a large platter with lettuce. Open reserved skin and place on platter, scale-side down. Mound salad onto one half of skin, using the skin as a template. Fold the remaining half of skin over salad, and gently press to form salad into the shape of the fish. Using scissors, cut top half of skin off, and discard. Using the edge of a spatula, gently score the salad to resemble the bones of the fish.
- Arrange the smoked fish around the whitefish salad. Garnish with salmon roe, caperberries, olives, lemon slices, and herbs. Serve with bread and cream cheese, on the side.
SMOKED FISH CHOWDER
Steps:
- In a heavy kettle (at least 5 quarts) cook bacon over moderate heat, stirring, until crisp. Add onions and cook, stirring, until softened. Peel potatoes and cut into 3/4-inch cubes. Add potatoes, celery, broth, and water and simmer, covered, 10 minutes. Add lima beans and corn and simmer, covered, 5 minutes.
- In a small bowl dissolve cornstarch in half-and-half or milk and stir into simmering soup with Worcestershire sauce. Bring soup to a boil, stirring, and add fish. (If using smoked trout, no further cooking is necessary; if using finnan haddie or fresh fish, simmer, covered, 5 minutes, or until it just flakes.) Stir in parsley or dill. Soup may be made 2 days ahead (cool uncovered before chilling covered.) Reheat gently.
HOW TO SMOKE FISH
Where there's smoke, there's flavor. Smoking fish at home may sound intimidating, but it's no more complicated than grilling. Just add aromatic wood to a charcoal grill and let the fragrant, flavorful smoke do its work.

Steps:
- Make the brine: Combine water, sugar, and 1/2 cup salt. Place fish in a nonreactive dish; cover with brine. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Heat charcoal grill to medium, piling coals on 1 side to set up direct and indirect heat zones. Set a drip pan under the grill grate in the indirect heat zone.
- Soak wood trimmings in water for 30 minutes. Drain (if smoking whole trout or char, leave 1/2 cup wood in water); add to coals.
- Smoke the fish: Once smoke develops, place fish in a lightly oiled grill basket. Transfer to grill rack, and set over drip pan. Open lid vent, and position over fish. (This will direct smoke to impart maximum smokiness.) For the trout fillets: Smoke fish until cooked through but not dry, 12 to 15 minutes.For the whole trout: Smoke for 10 minutes. Flip basket. Drain remaining 1/2 cup wood; add to coals. Smoke fish until cooked through but not dry, 8 to 10 minutes more.For the side of arctic char: Smoke for 10 minutes. Drain remaining 1/2 cup wood; add to coals. Smoke fish until cooked through but not dry, 13 to 15 minutes more.

- Cullen Skink. Cullen is a small town in Northeast of Scotland and the home of one of Scotland’s most famous dishes, cullen skink. It is a hearty soup and traditionally made with Finnan haddock (smoked haddock), potatoes, and onions.
- Smoked Mackerel Fishcakes. Nutritious, tasty, and cheap to make, smoked mackerel fishcakes are an ideal dish. Mackerel is not only an economical fish to cook and eat, but since it is an oily fish it is also very healthy.

- Smoked Haddock Chowder. Smoked haddock chowder is not dissimilar to a cullen skink, except flour and cream are used for thickening the soup instead of mashed potato.
- Smoked Salmon With Dill Sauce. What's an easier or more delicious starter than a plate of Scottish or Irish smoked salmon with a creamy dill sauce? Smoked salmon with dill sauce can be served as a lighter appetizer, or for the main course with boiled new potatoes.
- Creamed Leeks and Smoked Haddock. This comforting dish creamed leeks and smoked haddock can be made in two different ways—spooned over toast or baked as a casserole, where you simply layer ingredients in a baking dish, cover with breadcrumbs and butter, and bake until bubbling and golden brown.
