Has anyone used the high mountain brine ? was it any good and what times and temps did you smoke your salmon at ?
This probably isn't going to be much help to you, but I had a packet of High Mountain Alaskan Salmon brine sitting in my cupboard for a couple of years... got it for Christmas one year, but didn't own a smoker at the time. Found it the other week and decided to go get some salmon and try it out. However, when I opened up the packet and mixed it up it smelled really stale, so it sent straight down the drain! I'm 100% sure it had nothing to do with the product, just the fact that it was a couple years old.
Anyway, in the end I used Kummok's recipe (http://www.susanminor.org/forums/showthread.php?t=105) from over on the recipe site.... and am SO glad that High Mountain stuff WAS stale....!!
