This is great idea. I was getting a little tired of my cup o' salt, cup o' sugar, 2 qts o' water brine recipe.

Bruce, I tried your brine recipe and its great, thanks. I was a little reluctant when I read the 2-3 days of brining but the end product was not at all too salty and the seasoning came through very very well. I'll also have to admit that 2 days of brining fit in with my schedule. I put a late summer steelhead in the brine on Friday, spent the weekend fishing, and smoked the fish Sunday afternoon. Great smoked fish and you can spread things out as well.

45's OJ and honey recipe sounds intriguing as well; I'll probably try this one sometime this season.

Thanks again, guys
