Smoked Tailor

[samsteele115]

Still have some tailor in the freezer from two weeks ago's good fishing. Since then I have been choosing the Spanish mackerel in the freezer over the tailor for obvious reasons. 

In a timely fashion, my neighbour gave me a fish smoker! 

Just had a go for lunch and it's quick and simple with delicious results.

YUM!!! I don't have a smoker any more as my last one rusted out. 

I'd be interested to see if anyone had recommended ones?

It looks so yummy:)
My tailor recipe is very dependent on what ingredients are available at the time due to what part of Qld I find myself in.

Step 1 fillet tailor and slice fillets in half-length ways.
Step 2 (this is where it becomes very area dependent) insert 2 x ganged 7/0s attached to the line and drop over the side of the boat. If Brisbane based pull-up snapper if further north pulls up coral trout.
Step 3 fillet snapper or trout cover in egg and panko bread crumbs and shallow fry in a hot pan.

 Usually, I used the Stovetop smoker in the oven. I read the description, and reviews at https://thebarbec.com/. There are a lot of accessories and recipe content in it. I love this fish meat came out extremely juicy and smoky. My only problem is it’s a little small for a family of 3. Which is totally my fault. Thinking about getting another one or a larger one same brand. I hate grilling outside so this is perfect for me.
