    Mrs B wouldn't touch anything cooked in a manky smoker so if I could present it to be cooked in the oven looking like the stuff we buy she MIGHT just try it

    I didn't know cold smoking takes 5-8 hours, £10.50 for a large fillet is sounding cheaper.

    The fillet I bought from Taylors yesterday hasn't been dyed orange, I'm told it tastes exactly the same, the boss isn't convinced but we'll find out at tea time. I just know she's gonna complain

        Ah right, so you cold smoke it and then cook it. Seems way to long a process. hot smoke in 30mins.

        Are you suggesting my hot smoker is manky Keith!?

                    Very interesting and informative post. What I am interested in is the preserving of fish by smoking rather then the taste.

                    Does anyone know how long fish keep once smoked? and how they store them when done? I'm assuming cold smoking might be better and wondered if something like an old fridge in an outhouse might be suitable for storage?
