Well I burned the smoker in for 6 hours will be testing it out tomorrow, for my first batch of smoked salmon. Guess I have to figure out what I like as far as brine, etc.... Oh well, will let you know how the first batch came out... Will be sending a filet to my mother in New Mexico.

Went simple with the first batch, brown sugar, seafood seasoning, salt, tobasco, garlic salt, will use beer and water in the smoker, hope it turns out well.
