Firing Up The Smoker ...

For Smoked Kokanee
 

We have talked about getting a Smoker ...
for quite some time now ...
so ... finally last week ...
we purchased one ...
since it's going to be time to take the boat out ...
and go fishing ...
I took out a few packages of Kokanee from the freezer ...
put them in a brine solution over night ...
and in the morning ...
placed them on the racks ...
to be put in the smoker ..
