    Thawing and smoking fish

    Thanks Earl not only for the compliment but for the help in getting the pic up and tips for the prep. I used a basic brine of 1 lb. of salt to 1 gallon of water. I then added a bit of brown sugar and some maple syrup as well. I then soaked it overnight then padded it off and let it dry for a...

    Thawing and smoking fish

    Is there a negative effect on thawing a frozen Lake trout and smoking it? The fish will only be frozen for a couple of days with the skin on. My worry is having the final product be soggy. Thanksl Gary

    Hi. Randy. I can't tell you much about a gas smoker. However on refreezing meet I worked at a couple of european deli's back in the day and refreezing was a common practice but still a last resort. AS you may know the thing about freezing and thawing is that during that process there is a...

    Corned Venison

    This worked out really well. I started with some venison roasts 6 to be exact. I first injected them with a salt and curing mixture. I then let that sit for 2 days in the same brine. I then netted the roasts and tied loops to hang. I hung them in the smokehouse for 8 hours at 200 degrees. I...

    Venison Jerky

    Just a description of my first batch of venison jerky. I started with breaking the deer down into roasts. Some I pumped for corned venison with the others I cut them into 1/4 inch strips. I then covered them in a premixed Marinade and let them sit overnight. My smoke house food chamber is 54...

    Hello from smoksignlr

    I will post pictures soon, as you can see I am still learning the forum. I had originally planned to have a burner inside the food chamber with a tray for sawdust or woodchips on top of the burner. Recently I had just decided to get it smokin. What I have done is buried a steel drum outside of...

    Hello from smoksignlr

    Thanks for moving me Dutch. I was just out checkin on my stuff. I am marinating my stuff out in the garage. Some say to put jerky into plastic ziploc bags while marinating. If I leave my pieces layered in a plastic tray and mix them occassionally, they should be fine right?
