It almost didn't make me feel cold while watching it. ;-) === Yes. However some of those areas in south eastern Alaska I believe are actually warmer than Boston. They get a lot of drizzle and fog though. Wonder what he was frying the salmon in - bacon grease? Looked good. Whale blubber I've never tried fried salmon. Might have to bread it and fry it next time I get some. -- Ban idiots, not guns! I grew up with fried salmon. Probably why I do not care for salmon. Salmon steaks, over fried in bacon grease. Maybe because it still had bloodline and skin. We usually eat it smoked with apple chips. But something different sounds good. Might have to try it tomorrow. I've got the bacon grease. Did your mom bread it at all, or just throw it in the pan? -- Ban idiots, not guns! Dad streaked it and fried it in a cast iron pan. I did not really care for it. But we got lots of salmon, as my dad did a lot of the machining for the commercial boats as well as we had a 23' dual outboard cabin cruiser. Smoke it with alder. Does well with fish. Haven't seen alder around here. Oak does pretty well. I bought some cedar planks the other day to try on the grill. Have to give those a shot too. -- Ban idiots, not guns! Apple or cherry are nice and mild. Oak will be stronger. Forget hickory for any fish. |

I cook it hot and right on the edge of burning. You cook it fast so the juices are sealed in. Get it off the heat before it is really done inside and let the carry over heat to the rest. I prefer it fresh but frozen will work if that is all I can get. Be sure it is thawed and room temperature before you start cooking so it cooks fast. |

I tried it on the gas grill last night with the cedar planks underneath. Didn't taste nearly as good as on the smoker. Might use the cedar planks as firewood. -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

Did you do it correctly? Soak the planks in water for an hour. Toast the planks on the cooking side for a couple of minutes. Flip over, place the fish, then move to an unheated part of the grill (use indirect heat to cook). You can use them many times. It's not the same as the smoker, but it's good in a different way. |

I like to "season" the planks by slightly charring them on the fish side before using. My grill has three burners, so I can turn off the center one and leave the outside burners on. It makes the planks last longer since there's no direct heat on them to burn em' up, and allows the fish to cook a bit slower which I believe allows more time for the cedar flavor to develop. Your single burner grill is probably more of a challenge. But smoked is always good! |

I never leave the skin on fish except for Chinese style whole fish. I like to remove the dark portion off the sides, as they screw up the taste. Chinese style, I sear in a wok with oil and garlic, and then steam with some soy, and wine, and add green onions near the end. I use rock cod, a white meat fish, and remove the head, and scales and guts. And the fish is maybe 10" long when it hits the wok. |
