Posting the recipe first. Gotta go see if i can get some good salmon for this.

Honeyed Salmon Jerky

1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup Dark Rum ;D
5 crushed allspice berries or 1 tsp ground
1 Tbs lemon juice
5 crushed peppercorns (any color)
5 whole cloves
1 bay leaf
1 tsp salt
1 pound of salmon strips
1/4 tsp liquid smoke (opt for dehydrator)

Note.

This is for a dehydrator. If you plan on putting smoke to it remember your cure #1. 1 pound you will need just a tad under 1/4 tsp.
If you do more than 1 pound make adjustments to the recipe.

Mix all the above ingredients together (except salmon) and let sit and come together for 30 mins. Put salmon in a container and cover with the marinade for a min of 1 hour. The longer the marinade time the better.

You can Reveo this under vac seal only. Dont tumble it or you will have salmon paste.

Off to the store

Well Ok then, going to roll some smoke over it.
