This fish looks so delicious! Thank you for the tip on soaking them and saltiness and also the perfect cooked temperature. Your smoker is awesome too. 🌼🌷😊

[@Armadillopepper]

Thanks you Alyena. We appreciate you stopping by and taking the time to comment.

[@douglasally6405]

Thank you for taking time to make this video! Great video. Not too long and straight to the point. Love it and am marinating my fish right now. Most Appreciated!!!

[@Armadillopepper]

Thanks Douglas!

[@johnkelley3980]

I am going to give this a try! Hopefully I will be able to use fish that I catch. Thank you for the recipe Jeff. I always love watching your videos!

[@Armadillopepper]

Thanks John. I need some fresh caught fish!

[@Lightly_Salted35]

Ive done this several times and it always comes out perfect thank you for the video

[@Armadillopepper]

Thanks for letting us know. Appreciate the feedback!

[@desmotanker]

That smile at the end says all, I'm trying this during this weekend. I got about 1.2 pounds of rainbow trout filets and a pound of walleye filets (just for my first try experiment on a pellet smoker). Thank you for the good information about brining, that was a step I looked over.

[@Armadillopepper]

Let me know how it turns out

[@desmotanker]

@@Armadillopepper it was amazing my dude, I added in a salmon filet, same brine for all but different rubs for each. Over some rice with asparagus! Can't wait to do it again

Thank you Lasse. Next time I'll put some spray oil on the grates.

Nice recipe Jeff. Love me some smoked fish!!

[@Armadillopepper]

Thanks Jim. We used to buy smoked whiting when I would go to Canada each year as a kid.

[@peteratkin6151]

I'm not big on fish, except for pike, but my folks and partner love it. We had a winner with your fatty and armadillo eggs, so I'm gonna try this for them. I can always have a steak. Another great idea. Thanks

[@Armadillopepper]

Thanks Peter. I prefer walleye over pike, but if it's fresh caught I'll eat either!

[@craigbovard1180]

Thanks for sharing! Our brown trout turned out great! Now I need to figure out a good way to get all the pin bones out.

[@Armadillopepper]

Glad it worked for ya!

[@iangoodisDMX]

Big like, sir. I love fish. Used to fish and fillet as a kid. We have fish taco stuff for tonight. Awesome video. I need to smoke some fish for sure. You always have great advice and tips. 🔥🔥

[@Armadillopepper]

Thanks Ian. I grew up fishing as well. My son is going fishing in the morning.

[@iangoodisDMX]

@@Armadillopepper very cool. I remember waking up right at sun up and riding with my grandpa to McDonalds and he got coffee, and of all things asks for a container of pickles to eat. So funny.... great memories. I loved the catfish, blue gill, bass mix we had that day.

[@PicklesBBQandCooking]

I really like smoking fish and trout works great, plenty of it here. Really nice color from the cherry wood as well, perfect with fish. I need to do this soon, you got me hungry hah. Have a great weekend Jeff!

[@Armadillopepper]

Hey Charley, Thanks so much. Is it cooling off your way?

[@PicklesBBQandCooking]

Armadillo Pepper BBQ Definitely overnight but 80s during the day, not bad at all.

Thanks Travis. I messed up on the oil, but the trout still tasted good. 😀

[@mikecha1957]

Man Jeff that looks really good. I definitely need to break out my Bradley and smoke some fish. It is getting to be that time of year.

[@handcannon1388]

I should try that. I do have a trout in the freezer, but I think I'd try salmon fillets. Thanks to your reminder, I'll do my best to oil the rack. Now I just need to have more time off work so that I can plan to do anything.

@@handcannon1388 I owned a chocolate company a few years back where we made high end chocolates. The hardest part of that biz was getting people who would actually work.

We did. We made a Mayan truffle which had cinnamon and cayenne.

[@sparlin88]

How do you filet the trout like that ? Looks great . Thanks

I purchased them at the seafood market already fileted.

[@421rants2]

@@Armadillopepper looks good Jeff. I think that I'm going to stick with the rainbow trout recipe this time, but I will be using the sauce from the catfish recipe. That just looked perfect. = )

[@421rants2]

Okay...on the Bradley, with pecan wood. Turned out very nice. Flaky, not oily,(which surprised me because catfish is a lot more oily than rainbow trout), and the pecan smoke worked very nicely...... The sauce from Jeff's smoked catfish recipe is required. That really kicked it over the top. I didn't have any habanero sauce, so I used the Tabasco scorpion sauce......... Careful with that one it's extremely dangerous/fun, (2,000,000 on the scoville scale, Tami will like it). I took a bite, and did a little dance just like Jeff does it was so good......= )

[@domesticengineerlifecoach6938]

Question..is master built the brand/name of the smoker you used?

Yes

I've had two of these. First one was 40". This is 30"

You cooked them i smoke at 150-160 to pasturize them i dont want to cook them mine take about six hours

How often do you add chips?

At the beginning and then once again about 40 minutes later

[@weege001]

when i brine, i add everything in the pantry. lol..when i brine pork butts/shoulders, i usually brine them for five days.. fish, obviously not so much.. ill have to give this a shot.. thanks.. speaking of shots.. we need Weekend Bartender to make an appearance.
