Place the salmon, skin side up, in a non-reactive dish and cover with brining liquid. Allow fish to brine for 2 hours.
Rinse the salmon in fresh water and pat dry with papertowels.
Place salmon on a drying rack (or grill rack that you will use to smoke the salmon on) and allow to air dry for about 1 hour.
Smoke salmon skin side down for about 1 1/2 hours, keeping temperature at 160 degrees farenheit..[/size][/#000000][/font][font "Helv"][#000000][size 2][/size][/#000000][/font][size 1] [/size]
