Keta Returning Adult Registered: 03/05/00 Posts: 272	IMHO halibut is too low fat content for good smoking fish. Black cod is much better smoked than halibut, maybe better than salmon. Sometimes I put halibut or rockfish in the elecrtic smoker and burn one pan of chips. Then I put it in the oven and broil it with a little butter on it. Serve with jojos and beer.

JRfishing Returning Adult Registered: 12/06/01 Posts: 285 Loc: Mill Creek	this is a nice sweet brine for the hali. 1 cup brown sugar, 1cup cane sugar, 1/4 to 1/2 cup non-iodized salt. Mix together and cover the hali for 4-6 hours, rise and let glazed or dry for a couple hours. Smoke till done. nice mild sweet brine. $\:D$ _________________________ JRsCustomRods.com

Actually, I should say we have it done for us ... processors we work with in AK always help us out $\:\)$ Sweeter brines seem to work best ... we have a batch of honey smoked that is AWESOME! _________________________ Seen ... on a drive to Stam's house:
