Title: Stovetop Smoking Tuna
Post by: Dogbreath on October 15, 2013, 03:21:15 PM

After brining in a 50/50 sugar/salt mix for 24 hours I soaked the loins in Apple juice for another 24 hr.

Into the stovetop smoker

Finally finished tastes good but not great the stovetop units are a bit of a joke for something as big as these loins.

It does make an incredible tasting Tuna salad.

Note the ragged looking Tuna loins-these aren't ones I cleaned-trimmed them up as best I could but mine ended up with someone else somehow.

In the first picture, I thought you were screwing with us - it looks like hunks of chicken! lol

I've brined and smoked tuna before, but never tried the apple juice.  Do you find that it adds a lot to the flavor?

It adds something a bit different not sure I would do it that way again-No Frills had Apple Juice on sale so I thought WTH.
