Dry Brine for Salmon & Trout

Ingredients:

  • 1 bag of Dark Brown Sugar
  • 1 Cup of salt
  • 2 TBSP of Garlic Salt

Directions:

Mix all ingredients together. Rub the mixture on the fillet or pieces.  Place in a glass or plastic bowl.  Cover bowl with plastic wrap and set in refrigerator for 24 hours.

Remove fish from container and rinse under cold water. Place fish skin side down on paper towels and dab flesh side of fish with paper towel to dry.

When fish flesh is glazed sprinkle with pepper than place in smoker.

Usually you only need to load your smoker 4 times with wood chips which will be plenty of smoke for flavor.  I like alder the best.  Continue drying fish in smoker until fish is dry to your desired texture.
