Here is a tip for you Sammy instead of taking the fillets off. Leave the head on and split the whole fish including the head from the top, cut threw the rib cage but leave the belly as a hinge, open the fish like a book and leave the backbone in place. Take the gut and gills out then. After its smoked, the head and the meat left on the backbone are definitely worth a pick including the belly of the fish and don't forget to give those eye a suck.

Nice to see an Aussie embracing smoking it’s how we grew up eating fish in New Zealand , but I could never understand why it was not more common here , your process was faultless 👌🏻

Jamie D mate I have no idea! It’s not that much extra effort and the results are out of this world!! Would love a few spotties or a Spanish to smoke up! They will be the next targets

Well done mate I have been using banksia cones for over twenty years, If it is ever going to go wrong it will be from over salting I have done it once. I dont do a brine I salt and sugar leave in the fridge for six hrs then rinse off and dry. I was taught to make a mix of molasses and brown sugar paint and back in the fridge, I now use maple syrup. and then cold smoke.

The little fish pieces I had on the alfoil when I put the first tray of fish in was maple glazed tailor. Not too shabby at all, but I need to fine tune my recipe a bit!

I love smoking tailor, I leave scales on and fillet, dust with salt and cracked pepper, a good layer of brown sugar, sit in the fridge for an hour, then hot smoke them for 40 minutes in a box smoker, bloody delicious. The only thing I think you could have done better, smoke the roe too next time, that is the good stuff.

@SammyHitzkeFishing 5 жыл бұрын

jonnywaselectric yeah I haven’t tried the roe to be honest. My old man would go nuts for it but I haven’t taken the leap of faith yet. Have you smoked mackerel or any other fish yet?

@jonnywaselectric 5 жыл бұрын

@@SammyHitzkeFishing I've smoked prawns, bream, mullet, tailor, aussie salmon. Prawns are good but I should have peeled them first as the shell is a bastard to get off afterwards. I will eat anything so I'd definitely smoke any fish, oily fish are by far the best to do. Mullet, salmon and tailor hands down are the best fish to smoke. Have a crack at doing the roe, don't worry about brining it just dust it with a little salt and pepper and chuck it in.
