  1. Thanks for sharing this recipe! I am surprised how it turned out, especially having the internal meat exposed to the fire. I am having trouble with the use case for this style of cooking salmon. How many people do you usually cook for with this style? I also am wondering if this would taste the same if coooked to 120F (not USDA recommended, but tastes better to my family's palette). It would be interesting if you stuffed it with lemons, dill, and rosemary. I may have to try this but with smaller amount of salmon. More fish video's please!

  2. I live on Puget Island in the middle of the Columbia river. All of the salmon I catch that I am willing to keep have orange to red flesh I don't know about white meat in a bright skinned salmon like that. That being said I will try this method of cooking on a Spring Chinook. It should be incredible with all the fat they have in them.

  3. Since you've been on a health kick, I'm curious about smoking lean meats. I prefer lean meats in general, and I've been curious about the best way to go about smoking something cheap and lean, like a top roast or bottom roast, without adding a bunch of fats during the cooking process. I'm not a bbq connoisseur really. I like bbq, but I'm perfectly fine with like chain bbq. I just would like to be able to cook batches of cheap lean meats for freezing and meal prep. What things can i do to optimize that process without getting wild ?

  4. Jeremy,
    Love that you a finally connected with Frank Cox of SmokerBuilder. The man has been so influential in the bbq world for years, but has not received his just recognition, especially since so many others keep taking his ideas and making money off them. That Super55 smoker has taken years of trial of his other designs and is now the perfect ugly drum smoker!
    Regarding the fish smell, as well as to help with any other clean up in this and other drum smokers, make sure to use Harry Soo’s method of lining the bottom of the barrel with foil. It easily removes with all the debris.
    This cook looks great and is simple! Word to the wise, it does take a while to get those smokers up to 350 and the vents most likely have to be wide open. UDS ideal range is 250 to 275.
    Any chance you can do a simple chicken cook on the Super55. It make great tasting chicken, but I am curious to see how you attempt to make the skin crispy. It seems hard to get crispy skins on a UDS.
    Keep up the great content!👍

  5. It looks delicious, but I like crispy skin salmon in the pan, slice the fillet to slices 1.5 inch wide……salt skin hot pan 4 minutes skin down flip lid on 4 more minutes…..done….serve with mash with spring onion mashed in and salad…..absolute ripper quick dinner
