Smoker/Smoking foods

[JAS_OH1]

Absolutely no idea. I just love the things - for breakfast.

I love hot smoked fish of all kinds--mackerel, salmon, and more. You'll know when you bite into it.

I like cold smoked salmon and bacon.

But cold smoking is potentially riskier than hot smoking, esp with regards to sausages (the casing creates an oxygen barrier which botulism enjoys).

I can only cold smoke in winter at night ..

I like warm/hot smoked mackerel, salmon, trout, chicken, short ribs, ribs and plenty more
(Gotta do them eggs again)

Some good sites about smoking and curing
Meats and Sausages
Making Homemade Sausage Len Poli's Formulations and Recipes
Steven Raichlen has some good smoking recipes (the egg idea came from him)

Smoked Deviled Eggs

I'm a little confused as the recipe for smoked deviled eggs mentions smoked paprika (which I've used before) and topping with smoked meat, but it doesn't mention putting the eggs in the smoker.

Edit: thanks for the clarification!

Joking aside, I thought that kippers were hot smoked.

I know nothing about kippers except to move to another table when someone at the B&B orders them, but Wikipedia says they’re cold-smoked.

The first time I saw someone eat kippers was in a little family-run hotel in Edinburgh in…1993, and I thought, “Look at that poor man, he’s had to make do with whatever that boney thing is.”

Yeah, but I like fish that flakes apart and lox doesn't until it's cooked. It's just as easy to hot smoke it or buy hot smoked if they have it at the grocery stores.

I was attempting to answer.

Why is lox so slimy then?...

My dad used to love them. We went to Scotland in 2001, stayed at Dalhousie castle in Edinburgh and in a boutique hotel on Islay. I think he had kippers for breakfast every single day.

I like kippers

I've never had kippers. I could probably make something similar with mackerel but then it wouldn't be kippers.

Smoked mackerel is divine.

I could enjoy having a whole fish and not those tiny tins!

I think kippers are herring. Probably not easily sourced in small-town Georgia (or Ohio for that matter).

Down here they'd be asking me what I need hair for.

You're right. Not good, mind you, if you're deaf or hard of herring.
