I know each of these shoots requires a great deal of logistics and planning, but the both of you manage to consistently convey the essential joy that motivates your work. Yeah, we come for the cooking tips, but we stay for the joy. And the dogs. As my Papaw used to say, “If you cain’t teach a man to fish, feed him your catch and he’ll eat for today.”

Brother Kent, just wanted to tell you that I gave a bunch of your Cowboy Relish/Chutney to relatives at Christmas that I only get to talk to once a year. As soon as they found out you made it, almost every one of them became excited and said they had followed your videos(especially the cast iron videos), and haven't heard a single complaint from them. In this day and age, it's hard to please people, but you have a way of pleasing/appeasing even the most hardened of hearts. I've also followed some of your recipes to cook for my elderly parents over the last few years, and they absolutely loved it. We're talking about some very picky eaters. Thanks for all that you do and have done. You are making a difference in this screwed up world, even in the lives of people you will never meet until we get to the other side. Just wanted to encourage you and say thanks for all that you do.

No way! I'm about to throw a salmon on the smoker for my parents today! Late Christmas present, they were stuck out of town and we're celebrating with them soon. I did the vodka brine version, but any way you do it, it's going to be tastier and way cheaper than the store bought stuff, and it's the easiest thing to smoke. Mixing it up with some cream cheese and green onions etc. on a toasted everything bagel is the best! Cheers!

@arcticmorning Жыл бұрын

the only problem with cured salmon is that is very firm and almost chewy when its finished in the smoking process.. if u add just salt at the same time u put your salmon in the smoker with a temp around 125 degrees .. Dont cook the meat u will down grade your smoked salmon. smoke it on or around that temp for about 5 hours and when u take it off the smoker put pieces in a zip lock back and refrigerate over night U wont believe how good it will be.. make sure u use maple or hickory with apple wood if u can get any... cheers

My friend lives in the mountains around here in a place called Hatchers Pass. He goes and cuts a bunch alder switches and uses that for smoking salmon. He makes a marinade of miso paste, brown sugar and jalapeno which is then cold smoked for many hours. I'm very blessed to get a few packages of it every season!!
