Might just have to take ya up on the information for fishing sometime. Would love to go with my dad sometime. Will definitely stay in touch about that. Anyways about the break. Just use a fork to gently pull at a natural separation of the meat. When pulls or "breaks" apart cleanly and...

I know a lot of people around here pickle pike also. I've just never cared much for pickled anything. I have a serious aversion to vinegar. Try smoking some, and you may another favorite way to prepare the snarled toothed lake snakes.

Oh how I envy you. I have always wanted to fish Walleye on Erie. It's on my bucket list for sure. Now that the jealousy has settled some, we have a ton of Walleye here in SD also. Actually it is our state fish. Most of the walleye I catch get either baked or deep fried. I have not...

Welcome to the forums. Definitely show us your build for the cold smoker when you get it going.

No problem. Happy fishing and smoking. Let me know if it works out for ya, or if ya have any other questions.

I just knock the whole fillet off either side of the fish, bones and all. The brine does not disolve the bones at all. After the filets are smoked, the chunks of meat between the bones will break cleanly from the bones. It is very easy to separate the two with a fork. My rule of thumb is...

You are very welcome. Hope ya like it.

Congratulations on the 47th Anniversary. My wife has been wanting to try a prime rib at home, in the oven. I've never thought about doing one on the smoker, but will definitely be giving this a try after seeing your post. Thanks for the inspiration, in both the meat and marriage.

Thank you. Was a fire medic myself for a lot of years. Looking forward to "chatting" with many like minded folks that enjoy the smoking fun. Have fun and stay safe on the fire grounds.

Thank you. Really happy to be here officially. With our extremely cold winters here in SD, I won't be building the smokehouse until spring. Leaves me some great planning and supply gathering time. I will definitely post once the build starts. I might also put my recipe for my fish brine on...

Hello all. I am a flight paramedic in Sioux Falls, SD. I currently use a simple electric water smoker, and it has served me well for several years now. I got into smoking while at my last job at a fire department, where most of my shift did it, and I learned from them. I have been...
