Smoking Mahi

[Norcal Novice]

I have a friend who just returned from a trip to Baja, and he's going to lay some Mahi Mahi on me.  I was thinking of treating it like Trout or Salmon, but wonder if it has enough oil in it to stand up like either of those.  If it does, I'd do Boutch's cure and alder smoke it.

Anybody done Mahi before?

I have done mahi mahi, usually just hit it with about 20-40 minutes of smoke and then throw on the grill to finish!

Mahi has a little bit of a fishy taste, so to get rid of the fish taste, cut out the red meat, soak in milk etc... overnight and smoke like I did the Red Snapper .

I think you will be very please with the results you will get from using Boutch's brine. That's good stuff, and I believe the cognac will complement Mahi Mahi very well.

Now I'm thinking of smoking some trout.

I have some Mahi in the freezer and may smoke some next time,
and post the photos soon!
