      Heat your smoker (mine is my BBQ with Lid) with your favourite Wood I am using Hickery. place salmon on grill and close lid and vents. Lets in "soak in" the smoke for at least 6 hours upto 12. Wrap the Fish in Greaseproof Paper and let it rest in the fridge overnight then thinly slice and Serve your favourite way. I also put in some freezer bags and freeze and use within 2 months - as if it will last that long - YUMMY :P
