Ladies & Gents, this is a brine we use for smoking Salmon but can also be used for other types of fish/seafood.
Ingredients:
5 quarts water
2 cups kosher salt
2 cups salt
2 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1 cup honey
3 drops tabasco sauce (to taste)
1 dash allspice (to taste)
1 dash lemon juice (to taste)
1 dash black pepper (to taste)
8 -10 lbs salmon
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients well. We use a 5 gallon bucket.
2. Place Salmon in the bucket, cover, and marinade overnight (no more than 24 hours).
3. We smoke our Salmon with apple chips on an electric smoker set for 180-200 degrees and takes anywhere from 4-6 hours to complete the process depending on how many pounds of fish are getting smoked.
4. With 15 minutes to go, you can brush with Grand Marnier (optional). ENJOY!
