Thumbs up New Candy Salmon Recipe

Always experimenting it seems.
So, even though I have several tried & true methods for candy, I decided to experiment yet again.

Brine:
8 - 10 liters White Cranberry Juice
1.5 cups coarse salt
3 bags Demerra Sugar
1 full bottle Roasted Garlic & Red Pepper Spice
1 Liter Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
1/4 cup soy sauce.

Simple. Brined to 48 hours, dried for 8, then slow smoked for 12 hours (low heat).

Results:
Marvelous candy flavour with a distinctly tangy after-taste.
A new WINNER!



Cheers,
Nog

I like the sounds of this. How big of bags of sugar? What kind of roasted garlic and pepper spice mix? How much fish is this good for?

I Kg Bags of Sugar

Club House 140 gram roasted garlic & red pepper spice

This run was 18 full sides. Salmon were 9 lb average (gutted & gilled) before filleting.

What temp was your smoker? Assuming warmer than cold smoking?
I have some salmon that needs to be done to and may just try this recipe.

Thank you

Looks like a real winner there, I like the sounds of it. Have you ever tried putting a favorite whisky in? My uncle used to do that on occasion, was quite good.

Didn't run the PIP or thermostat this time. Simply set the machine to low and let it go. Guessing around 145 degrees give or take 5 or so... thus the lengthy run time.

This was a first run experiment, so nope.
I am dwelling on what kind of flavor would go good with this eventual taste though...
Use RUM for a fair amount of my other recipes, and it offers a very nice touch indeed!
