Jolly II, you're gonna have a blast. Wayne Co. was my first ProAm last year and I'm still smilin about it. Lots of fun and great people. A lot of work goes into these ProAms & the volunteers do a fantastic job. Have fun with it & hope to see you there. Stop by the site for a cool one if you're in the area.
PS: You can have one of Ray's beers. :shock:
I'd love to, but I already promised the g/f a weekend of camping and I have to finish getting the camper ready. Can I have a raincheck? Next week sometime?
Here ya go chowder. This is a pretty basic recipe that I made my first batch out of. Give it a try & if you like it I've got others made with a variation of the basic recipe. Good luck & let me know how it came out.
I fillet the fish and also remove the skin and any bones (use needle nose pliers).
Then take:
2 quarts of water
1 cup Pickling salt
1 cup of brown sugar
1 cup of white sugar
Soak in a plastic container for at least 12 hours in the fridge. (DO NOT USE A METAL CONTAINER)
Before putting in the smoker:
Rinse thoroughly , I completely rinse the fish at least 3 times.
Then let the fish air dry for at least an hour before putting them in the smoker. A shiny film will appear on the fish. Then they are ready to smoke. Don't smoke them till they are dry with the shiny film.
I use apple wood, and hickory wood at the same time.
I have an electric smoker and check the fish after 2hours and when the fish is some what smaller then when I started I baste them with with REAL maple syrup.
