What a nice set up and process to do those Fish. We call those Mackeral here on the :texas: Texas Gulf Coast and I have charcoal grilled them before but never smoked. I'll bet they really taste good too. ???WHAT??? do you do when they are finished hanging? Do you keep them whole or remove the meat from the bone for "storage" ??? Also what flavors of smoke, seasoning or brine do you use??

Thanks for posting these for us to enjoy. :tup: :chef: :cheers:

Yes they are tasty, get you a nice slice of full grain bread, spread some butter like in the good days.....add plenty fish and some horseradish ho ho that is really something!
I soak them for 6-8 hours in a brine, water, sugar, salt, bay leaves, soy sauce, black pepper and some lemon juice. Rinse them well and pad them dry. Smoke for 8-10 hours with algarobo wood, just little chips in order to produce cold smoke about 60-80 degrees Celsius.
I’ll keep them whole in the fridge no problems for 10 days mostly they are gone sooner....
Algarobo wood is acording to Google Carob Wood....

Yes, indeed we always fished for the Spanish Mackerel where we went.
They sure are fast in the water after you set the hook. :tup: :cheers:
