Margarita Smoked Salmon Recipe - Cooking Index
If you enjoy the flavor and texture of smoked fish, but are not quite sure how to go about making it, this is a great way to start. The smoked fish is incredibly moist and delicious and you and your friends may have a little fun during the smoking process, that is, if you like margaritas. If you like your salmon more dry than moist, lower the heat to about 150 degrees and add an hour or two of smoking time.
