Step 1

How to Smoke Salmon on the Grill in Four Simple Steps.

Step 2

Prepare fish . Have your butcher remove pin bones from fresh salmon and section into portioned fillets. If you’re using salmon from the freezer, let it thaw the night before by placing it in the fridge. This will allow the salmon to thaw at a cool temperature for food safety.

Step 3

Season . There are lots of great options for layering flavour into your piece of smoked fish. This recipe uses brown sugar, pickling salt, and crab-boil seasoning to make a spicy slurry. Brines, marinades, and dry rubs also work great with smoked salmon.

Step 4

Preheat grill . You want to set up for indirect grilling, so heat one side of the grill to medium heat, about 100°C and place a smoker box of wood chips directly on the hot grill grates. We suggest using a smoking wood flavour of sweet taste like cherry or apple.

Step 5

Smoke . Close the grill lid and let salmon cook for about 1 hour. Use a digital thermometer to check the temperature of the fish. If it has reached 65°C, it’s perfectly smoked and ready to eat. If not yet that warm, let the salmon continue cooking until it reaches the target temperature. Instructions.

Step 6

Rinse the salmon fillet under cold running water and pat dry with paper towel.

Step 7

Combine brown sugar, pickling salt and contents of crab boil bag into bowl and dry mix together.

Step 8

Add enough water to these dry ingredients to make into semi-dry wet slurry – just beyond the texture of wet paste.

Step 9

Place salmon fillet in large 2-inch deep dish or largest size sealable plastic food bag and coat the flesh with the slurry.

Step 10

Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap or seal the bag and place in the refrigerator overnight 8+ hours. 2 hours before you are ready to smoke the fish, remove from refrigerator.

Step 11

Place salmon fillet flesh side up on baking sheet and pat dry. Do not rinse.

Step 12

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat 120°C and add wood chips. Place fillets on grates and let smoke for about 2 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 70°C. Remove from grill.

Step 13

Place in refrigerator to hold until ready to serve with dark breads, sliced red onions, cream cheese, lemon wedges, capers, etc.
