    Keeping smoked salmon questions

    Hey all - I'm planning on doing some smoked salmon tomorrow. Have it in a 4/1 dry brine right now. How long will it keep in the fridge after I smoke it before going bad? Also can I vacuum pack and freeze some for later? If so, how long will that keep for? Thanks

    Fat side up or down?

    I haven't tried cold smoking yet. I'm kinda limited on time and to my understanding, cold smoking takes alot longer? I did a test run a couple weeks ago, smoking at 200 to 150 IT and it came out incredible. Not sure how it could get even better. With that said, I have 20 pounds of belly in the...

    Fat side up or down?

    I have some bacon that came out of an 8 day brine last night and has been forming the pellicle all day today. I plan on smoking it tonight at 200 to an IT of 150. Should I do the fat side up down when I smoke it? Thanks!

    MES 30 rolling cart

    After alot of searching around, I decided on this rolling cart for my MES 30. It's a great fit, gets the smoker off the ground 20 inches and very easy to roll around now on my patio. Also had a nice storage shelf below it. Can be purchased here:

    Final Smoked Salmon with recipe, instructions, and Qview

    Did this recipe over the weekend and it came out great using Alderwood pellets with the AMNPS. I think I over judged the size of the pieces and left them in the brine a little too long because they were a bit saltier and dryer than I prefer, but still tasted amazing. Next time around, I will...

    Final Smoked Salmon with recipe, instructions, and Qview

    Thanks for the info guys, I appreciate it. I did the brine yesterday evening. I pulled the fish out after 5-6 hours depending on the size of the pieces, washed them with fresh water and then dried with a paper towel. They have been sitting on racks in the fridge for 8 hours now, but no pellicle...

    Final Smoked Salmon with recipe, instructions, and Qview

    So stoked to find this recipe. I have some fillets fillets defrosting as we speak that my cousin gave me from his recent Alaska trip. I'll be sure to post pictures when I'm done. Question: After it's done, is vacuum packing and freezing required? Or is this if you just want to store it long...

    I like your idea. 5 more days to go then. My fridge smells smokey still, even after everything has been vacuumed packed. It's teasing me every time I open it.
