First of all, welcome to the forum. Of course we're interested in your input, we all have our own special areas of expertise.[:)]

What do you know about smoking haddock? My wife's family tradionally has finnan haddie on Christmas Eve & I want to give it a go. I realize it's not a Norwegian dish, but you're a lot closer to there than Indiana.

Ya think next time I check into a hotel & they ask "Smoking or Non?" they would mind?

Glad you have joined us.  Do you have a Bradley or another type of smoker?  What kinds of things do you enjoy smoking most?  Always interested in hearing about more international dishes...the similarities and the differences in the ways of smoking meat.

Welcome to the forum from Northern California.

Hi Canari,

I know I've already welcomed you in another post, but I told you that lots of folks would want to hear how things are done in Norway!

Hello and thanks for the warm welcom, i Have not seen this topic before now.[:I][:I] I have some recipe i would love to share with you. But i have to translate them first[:)]

I am using an old dobbel fridge as a smoke house and the fireplace is outside connected with a 5 m, 5 inch ventilating pipe, And today i am smoking 30 kg Cod. Normaly i smoke saltwater fish like Cod ,mackerel,herring, haddock, Salmon, trout and some bacon. But now i have a project with a big smoked cured ham ( leg of pork ) 11 kg. This is a long project !!  1 year at least. I am just in the 2 months brine  period . About 3 weeks from now , it`s ready for smoking.

Haddock is a Norwegian dish, we use a lot of Haddock in the Norwegian kitchen. And i smoke Haddock almost weekly. First i fillet the fish and put some dry salt on it ( so the fish brien`s itself ) Normaly for 10 to 12 houres. Afterwards i put the fillet in fresh water for 1/2 to 1 hour. Then you have to dry the fish for 3 to 4 hour. Then it`s ready for smoking. I normaly not smoke it to hard for about 10 to 12 hour.. The Haddock is also very god on the fry pan. And it is also very god to make fishballs/fish kake. But there is one fish ho beat`s them all and that`s the sea scorpion, not smoked but on the grill, marinated on a spit.[:)][:)]
