Topic: Spicing up Salmon . . . . From: Tom,
Subject: Re: BBQ/Smoking fish?

Enjoy the newsletter tremendously. Any readers out there have tips, rubs, marinades, etc. for use with saltwater fish, salmon, etc.? Red Alder sawdust is avilable here and cheap from some saw mills. Large paper bag lasts for years.

I have had some success by mopping salmon with soy sauce, liquid smoke and a few other ingredients but am looking for something more exotic (if we ever catch another salmon in Oregon). Would enjoy hearing from anyone interested.

Regards,
Tom Darrow

Hi Tom,

Can't imagine anyone not overflowing with salmon to put soy sauce or liquid smoke onto such a naturally delicous fish.

Lemon and butter are my favorite baste for salmon and most salt water fish. Garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, ground bay, rosemary, dill, parsley, coriander, juniper berries, allspice, mace, cloves are all legitimate additions for the jaded or adventurous palate. Mix and mingle until you find a taste that you like.

Have fun,
Smoky
