Tip 01
Chef Pro Tip: 230°F is the perfect smoking temperature - low and slow. (Check every 30 minutes, bearing in mind that every time you open the grill, you lose heat.)
Tip 02
Get to know your local fish market monger or deli. Ask them questions about where the fish comes from and how it was caught.
Tip 03
Use oak and cherry wood for smoking.
