hey! can you help me? I smoked mackerel just like you did in the same smoker. it tasted like metho! i lighted the burner with metho. Do you know why this happened? was horrible had to throw out :(
Sorry I am pretty lame at this so far. I just finished my second attempt. It was pretty tasty but was obviously too salty. Did I need to rinse it more or did I salt it too much?
you do have to make sure that you wash off all the salt before smoking it otherwise it will be overpowering. Some types of salt are also just more "saltier" than others. You can adjust the ratio of salt/sugar until it is to your taste. thanks for watching
