Teriyaki Pike on the smoker

[1bigboomstick]

Hey guys

I'm a smoking newby and thought I would take a stab at doing up som fish this week. First was a small rainbow, then today I did some scraps from a couple pike. Both times I let them soak in a teriyaki brine overnight in the fridge, washed them off, let them dry, then popped them in the Bradley to let the magic begin. I do like a good fish fry but wow this stuff came out like some tastey jerky. It will make a good snack for tomorrow's day out on the ice. Forgive the butchering job, I'm not the best at deboning and I was trying to keep similar thickness pieces on each rack.

Sure thing fellas; I pieced this one together from a few recipes that I found online:

6 tablespoons cold water
6 tablespoons of soy sauce
3 heaping tablespoons of brown sugar (Demerara sugar)
3 tablespoons ketchup
3 tablespoons salt (table or pickling)
1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
A couple shakes of ginger*
A couple shakes of garlic powder

I have a few trout in the freezer I would like to try out. How long did you smoke it for? How much fish can this brine cover do you think?

When I did the trout, 4 hrs.
The pike was 2 1/2 hours for the thinner pieces and 3 hours for the thicker ones.
The internal temp was about 163 deg.

As far as how far the brine will go, I could have done another rack worth of meat there. I had them soaking in a dish with a closed lid so that I could shake them up every few hours.

Do you think you could just add liquid smoke and do this in the dehydrator? Love to try that!
