I cold smoked some shibi (small yellowfin or big eye) about a month ago. I did the 4x brown sugar- 1x kosher salt dry brine. I then lit up my amnts and smoked for three hours in my mini.
Last week at the fish market we had a 180 lb big eye come in but because it was Xmas eve and I had to work that night I didn't grab the belly off of it.
Worked pretty well got a little dry, not much be smoke flavor, but it might have been doomed from the start, found in freezer, which is why I decided to smoke help kill any bacteriera.
