Dry cured a side of salmon to hot smoke.

The tail end.

Put in some local organic (that's what the booth claimed) marigolds opposite my scallions.

Had the medium and mini going when a very impressive storm came through. Had to wait an hour.

So I made a drink.
Local peaches, ice, local vodka (that I added vanilla beans to months ago), and some nice spicy cinnamon.

Ground brisket juicy lucy. Thanks Adam.

Salmon rinsed, patted and hung in the fridge a few hours.

Getting there.

2 hours, tail end.

Fun to cook all day and get some things done around here.
Have a great week all!!

Streams were running the streets for an hour. Cooled things off nice though.

Nicely done Molly. I want some cured and smoked salmon. Great finger food.

I do have a question. What is the brown stuff in your back yard?

NibbleMeThis · July 2011

It all looks great, Molly, and you adjusted so well to the nice :pinch: weather! Way to save the day.

cookn biker · July 2011

Thanks. That is the right side of my huge backyard. The left is green. Come on over and help this situation Tim :whistle:

cookn biker · July 2011

Gotta roll with it Chris! Thanks.

2Fategghead · July 2011

Love to. We need a get away.

I have this sprayer and I can mix some green paint in it and spray your whole yard. :laugh: :woohoo: :silly:

Looks like a great day !

At what temp did you smoke the salmon? What wood and how long?

Cold-smoked salmon is on my list once the outside temps get cool enough to do it - maybe late fall.

:whistle: :lol:

cookn biker · July 2011

This it the one and only recipe I will do. It is so dang terrific Clark!!

Did you follow it pretty much according to Wayne's instructions?
