She Who Must Be Obeyed told me she had picked up a nice piece of wild sockeye salmon and that I was smoking it. I was busy (SWMBO suggested it was more like lazy) and didn't want to futz a lot so I tried making a simple rub and just smoking it a relatively low temperature.
The salmon fillet weighed about 500 grams (1 pound).
I mixed:
5 ml (1 teaspoon) brown sugar
1 ml (1/4 teaspoon) salt
1 ml (1/4 teaspoon) ground pepper
1 ml (1/4 teaspoon) ground ginger
1 ml (1/4 teaspoon) dry mustard
I rubbed it over the surface of the salmon.
I cooked it in a 190 F smoker for 1 hour 20 minutes to an internal temperature of 145 F.
The final result:
I also did a video of it but it was so easy I'm not sure why I bothered. I wouldn't watch it unless you are suffering from insomnia.
The Verdict
Easy is good! It had a touch of spice, a touch of sweet and a nice hit of smoke. She Who Must Be Obeyed still thinks I'm lazy but she liked the result.
