Total newbie hear and been reading like crazy. This is a great forum and tons of info for all things smoked. I have an electric Meco which I will use for salmon. I had an issue which I posted about smoking fish and meats on the same smoker. Long story after smoking salmon I cooked a turkey breast and it tasted like salmon, so much for turkey day. Anyway I will use smoker solely for salmon. What is the big taste difference between using 4-1 or 2-1 ratio sugar to salt ? I know some members like the candy type but I'm think more like fish market smoked salmon which I am betting is not using so much sugar. Will the 4-1 ration produce salmon too sweet ? I'm wanting fish that is closer to finger food as opposed to flake like after smoking. I guess from what I have read texture is more temp related ?
Cheers
