Some smelt that I smoked at the same time.

One half of the salmon, after brining and drying. Ready for the smoker.

The other half of the salmon, with a copius amount of freshly cracked pepper (our favorite).

The smelt and salmon, loaded on the kamado.

Finished smelt make great snacks, but these were a little too big, making the bones hard to chew up.

The finished salmon. Wonderful!
