I got a side fillet and put a little olive oil in the skillet and
cooked until brown, but the other side still had the skin on it, so
after flipping it and letting the skin side cook a couple minutes, I
peeled the skin off easily then cooked at it for about anothe 4
minutes.


It turned out OK, I thought. It was flakey and tender. a bit of lemon
juice and pepper helped out. I'm staying away from salt.


I'm sure there are *better ways to skillet fry salmon then what I did.

What should I do next time around?


Smoked!

"A diet high in smoked and salted foods, such as smoked fish, meat, and
pickled vegetables, has been shown to increase a person's chances of
developing stomach cancer. High consumption of red meat also raises this
risk. Conversely, eating a diet high in fruits and vegetables
(particularly those high in beta-carotene and vitamin C) can decrease
this risk."

I love it on a smoker. I've got one of these:

Put the salmon on there for an hour with some mesquite chips and it's
done. Very good.


Daaaaayyyyemmmm. I got to put up some pictures of my smoker so you and
loogie can see what a real smoker looks like. Not a "big box" BBQ;)


I needed one I could take to Germany and Korea with me. This bugger
has done just fine, I'll have you know.


No problem BBQ boy! ;) I guess you get a pass for that one.

I have to make a new smoker barrel, I haven't decided if I want to make
it from wood, or two 55 gallon barrels cut and welded like old one.

Make a mixture of soy sauce, dry mustard (1 teaspoon) and chopped garlic.
Marinade a filet in the mixture for 10 - 15 minutes.

Lay filet on a piece of tin foil with the edges of the tin foil folded up to
catch the juice, poor some of the marinade on the filet. Lay bacon strips on
top of the filet then sliced lemon on top of the bacon.

BBQ till flaky...

Good eats,
JT

Some time (when it's warm!) I'll take some pictures of my stuff,
including my whole hog pit. Real southern BBQ!

That sounds like a keeper. I'll give it a try in a couple days.

Thanks.

Cedar plank on the grill. Squeeze some lemon on it.
