I made it for the first time in my life. Big problems with the Weber cold smoke generator, my attention was needed every half an hour, but the result was awesome. I tried to keep the temperature max 25 Celsius sometimes it went up to 30 cause to re burning the wood chips. Finally I smoked for four hours one day and five hours the following day. Anyways the ratio of salt to brown sugar (in my case) is right on. I recommend this with five stars. Next time I will try the maple syrup just for fun as being supportive Canadian. Thank You for the good recipe.

Pit master, you may be aware that years ago salting sides of salmon in barrels was the only way to preserve it. This "mild cure" salmon was freshened in water then cold smoked hanging in a smoke room for weeks until quite dry. This was SOP in the Scandinavian towns on the lower Columbia river. There is only one cold smoker left in Astoria that I know of.

A question: Can I cold smoke a Salmon in an electric smoker Masterbuilt, using the fruit wood chips or it has to be a sawdust? I tried once and I wasn't successful. Have anybody had some luck with an electrical smoker - to cold smoke a fish? Looks like it's too hard to control the temperature, keep it at 75F and create the small amount of cold smoke at the same time...!

@Rehdman6444 8 жыл бұрын

+Erick Richardson I have a 40" Masterbuilt smoker, but I have not tried cold smoking fish., so I purchased the Masterbuilt accessory cold smoking kit. The cold smoking unit is rated to work in the 100-140F temperature range, but adding a three-inch clothes dyer exhaust tube between the main smoker box and the cold smoker might lower the temperature a bit. If this doesn't work, I'll be in the market to purchase the unit described in this video. According to my research, this seems to be a highly rated gadget. When the weather warms up in the spring here in Wisconsin, I'll send you a hands on report.
