smoking fish

burntbrisket · May 2012

I'm thinking about smoking some salmon in the egg but was concerned about the lingering fish smell. I have used other smokers in the past and after smoking fish in them everything else tastes like fish. Any thoughts?

I never find it a problem, but then I hot smoke rather than cold smoking.

I hot somke (around 180-210*F) salmon (takes an hour +/-) then will smoke something else with no issues since I'm already in the process . Just make sure your grate is clean when done with the fish.

I also hot smoke salmon about once a week. My egg smells like smoke, not fish. Enjoy.

You are good to go. No left over fish smell. Lots of different wood is probably ok but I prefer alder wood for salmon if you can get it. nothing like smoked salmon in the BGE.
