At least I don't fillet salmon with an inch left on the meat and then throw the skeleton into the water, sneering, "That's just crab bait," like guys I've seen do. I keep it all, smoke it all, EAT it all. I don't care how pretty or not it is.

  • I like smoked salmon. You got a great deal on that smoker. I have a Cookshack smoker oven that cost quite a bit more than you paid. I'l bet your smoked salmon is just as good as mine though. Nice video!

  • @AnotherAmateur Thanks! Right now I'm using an old washer tub and a stop sign, some old 'fridge racks on concrete blocks to smoke (the old smoker kinda died after much use). And discovered a new (old?) way to smoke: Take clean, dry straw or grass, make wads about the size of a football, soak; make coals of (preferably) beach wood in the tub. Throw on soaking-wet grass, put salmon on racks, cover, lotsa smoke! When grass finally ignites, flip salmon to sear both sides. Fast,yummy!

  • @AnotherAmateur Check out my blog - look for CLALLAMATBAY on blogspot, August 2011, for lotsa smoking pictures with the grass method.

  • A lot of meat wasted. When filleting the meat (1) use specialized knife that has a very sharp edge; (2) take your time and be precise and meticulous as if you are a Dentist and working on someone's mouth, or a precision wood carver. This way the knife is able to be used very close to the bones and very little meat is wasted.

  • @Search4diabetescure It is NOT wasted; every scrap of this fish was smoked, head, backbone, the lot. I'm not the silly people who fillet and throw the backbone in the water, claiming -- with a sneer, in front of a child -- that a part of a salmon's body is merely "crab bait." Oh, yeah, I heard and saw a guy do that.

  • @Rummelhart - I think I am in love!

  • @Search4diabetescure With the fish and the cats, I hope.

  • @Rummelhart Totally true.

  • @Elva89 If we leave it to men they keep all the good parts for themselves and beat up the flesh. Better to have the fish without the middlemen and all the ego and attitude that fish are enemy soldiers, rather than creatures that gave their lives so we could live.

  • @Rummelhart True leave that stinky stuff for the men.
