Making Lox a picture guide.
I agree with the wild caught sockeye as the protein of choice. I used farm raised Atlantic the first time and while it did take the smoke and it worked okay, I was a bit disappointed. I used wild sockeye the second time and it was 10X better, tasted amazing and it really took in the smoke... -
Traeger Lil Tex vs. Brinkmann pellet smoker

I am going to try this recipe next week. I have a buddy in a deployed location. After I follow this recipe and vacuum seal it, is it safe to send unrefrigerated in the USPS or will it arrive ruined and unfit for consumption??? -
