First time advice wanted
Posted: Sat Sep 18, 2004 8:23 amAs a first time "smoker", having just acquired a Rollergrill cold smoker, I'm looking for help and advice from the experts to get me started on the right lines. Does anyone else use this machine?
I would like to start with smoking salmon. There seems to be a million different recipes for smoking salmon, ranging from simple salting + smoking, right through to complicated dry cure + wet cure + drying + smoking etc. I would plan to use simple salmon sides from the supermarket, so would really appreciate advice from anyone who has done this.
Next I would like to try smoking bacon. I've bought some traditional dry cure from Franco, and again would appreciate practical advice from those who make smoked bacon, from either belly or loin.
