Wanted to have some smoked salmon around for the xmas holiday.
I basically followed Naked Whiz's recipe here http://www.nakedwhiz.com/smokedsalmon.htm
* Started w/ two center cut filets of Atlantic salmon (farm raised as recommended) approx 1.75 lbs each.
* Brined overnight in brine of brown sugar, salt, soy sauce, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, hot sauce, and wine.
* Dried in the fridge uncovered for 12 hours.
* Setup LBGE for indirect w/ some soaked cherry chips… targeted temp of 180 - 200 for approx six hours.
* It was challenging to keep temp at/or below 200… it jumped to 225 - 250 several times.
Overall it is very good and should be a tasty little snack for the next few days. See pics.
up next… rack of lamb, quiche, and beef tenderloin.

What was the internal temp of the salmon when finished?
Rather warm in So Fl this year, thus the difficulty in getting the BGE to burn at a low temp.
