    I'll be smoking a 7.5 lb. leg of lamb and a 6.8 lb. pork loin (cut in half) today. I will be pulling them both off at the medium-rare state at about 140 degrees F. I will be using my Maverick remote thermometer and double checking with my Thermapen to determine doneness. Smoker will be kept...

    Salmon Smoking Time - Jeff's Latest Recipe

    Hmmmm. Sorry, no more pictures - I was too hungry! Just finished my salmon. Took it out of smoker at about 3:45 PM at 133°F internal temp. The salmon was real good. I wouldn't do backflips over it - but it was quite good. I don't know that it was any better than a good grilled piece of salmon -...

    Salmon Smoking Time - Jeff's Latest Recipe

    That really doesn't make a whole lot of sense because even if you cook at 200°F or higher - if you are only cooking the fish to an internal temperature of 130 or 140°F, you'd still have the same risk of no effectively killing any pathogens - whether the CC temp is 150°F or 250°F. I do suppose...

    Salmon Smoking Time - Jeff's Latest Recipe

    After reading Jeff's recipe for the eight time, I now do see that right up there at the start he suggests a 4+ hour cooking time. But that is for a filet that is 2 to 3 pounds. Mine is only just over a single pound, so it is going to be much thinner and thus cook faster. I'm going to plan on...

    Salmon Smoking Time - Jeff's Latest Recipe

    I'm curious what you thoughts are on the temp. Jeff's recipe states to keep smoker at 160 F. Last time I smoked salmon, I also did it at about 220  F and it sure was good - but the white juice did indeed seep out. I think Jeff's recommended 160 F tends to minimize that. Any thoughts?
