Time 4h55m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
½ cup finely chopped fresh mint leaves
¼ cup brandy, or to taste
1 (4 pound) salmon side, bones removed with pliers
2 cups alder wood chips, soaked in water, or as needed

Steps:

  • In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, salt, crushed red pepper flakes, mint leaves, and brandy to make a paste. Rub the paste all over the salmon, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Place soaked alder chips in a small disposable aluminum pie pan or piece of aluminum foil at the back of the grill, under the grate. Allow the wood chips to begin smoking, then turn the heat to the lowest setting, position the salmon on the grate, and close the lid. Cook and smoke the salmon until it has turned a red-brown color and flakes easily, about 45 minutes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salmon didn't turn out right. It was tough and didn't have much flavor.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I ended up overcooking the salmon and it was dry. I think I'll stick to my old smoked salmon recipe.

I'm not a big fan of smoked salmon, but this recipe changed my mind. The fire and ice method really mellows out the smoky flavor and makes the salmon more palatable. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone who is on the fence about smoked
