Thanks all!  Going to give it another go this weekend and try a water brine.  the last one turned out great was just a little salty, so im going to try liquid and rinse better.  Also going to smoke a pork loin deal with it (not sure what it is, wife bout it).  Im guessing it will take longer, and need to be hotter.  Should i start the pork first then try to cool it off after a bit and throw on salmon, or throw them on together then turn up the heat when the salmon finishes?  any suggestions?
