Smoking Salmon And Trout Part 10 – Smoking Small Trout

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Unboned: Make an 80 deg sal brine with 8.5 oz salt per quart water, score
skin and brine 1 hr. Spit them through the eyes with a heavy wire [a
welding rod works well here]and hold the belly open with small match stick
sized sticks. Dry at 90 deg F for 30 min [forced draft] or 1 hr or more
[natural draft]. Then smoke at 160 deg F for 1 1/2 hrs [forced] or 3 hrs or
more [natural].
Boned: Make an 80 deg sal brine and brine 8 min stirring often. Depending
on the shape desired and the boning method used, spit through the eyes and
prop open with match stick sized wood, or hang over a dowel, or rolled and
skewered. Drying and smoking temps and times are the same as for unboned.
