Wow, very cool. That spawn  looks interesting. This is way out of my league. I know nothing of preparing fresh fish. Looking forward to following this.

Dried the fish off with paper towels, cut spits in the sides, brushed with peanut oil, Himalayan salt and some seafood rub


Set up the Performer to smoke using the snake method. A couple of handfuls of lump fired up in the chimney and tossed on the beginning part of the fuse. Foil under the fish on the charcoal grate. looking to smoke around 250 degrees.

That will bring some visitors down to the dock
Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

One hour in the spawn was ready.  Incredible.  Creamy.  Smokey.  Sort Of like a smoked poached egg yolk.

That looks great and yummy. Glad to see more fish around here. Just grilled some local salmon  that my friend  caught the other day. Forgot to ask what type  of salmon but it was good.  I didn't smoke the roe though. Just added salt n pepper and wrapped it in foil.
