Can be used as measuring spoon for the sawdust: one spoonful is enough to smoke a whole side of salmon.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Preparing the smoker<\/h3>\n<p>To prepare your smoker, cover the bottom of the smoker with aluminium foil, shiny side up. On this you sprinkle the sawdust (woodchips work better in a cold smoker or on the bbq). Now you put in the dripping tray, and one or both of the greased grids. The food that is to be smoked you place on the grid. Close the smoker and put it on the burner or the stove. Use a large burner on the stove. First turn the heat on high until the sawdust starts to smoke (couple of minutes), then lower the heat.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2321 size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Cured fish before smoking\" src=\"https:\/\/coquinaria.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/gerzalmfe020623.kl_.jpg\" alt=\"Cured fish before smoking\" width=\"227\" height=\"170\" \/>Two layers of salmon trout, cured and dried but not yet smoked.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2327 size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Smoker on the stove\" src=\"https:\/\/coquinaria.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/rookoventje1.kl_.jpg\" alt=\"Smoker on the stove\" width=\"227\" height=\"170\" \/>The closed smoker on the stove.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2328 size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Sawdust before smoking\" src=\"https:\/\/coquinaria.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/rookoventje3.kl_.jpg\" alt=\"Sawdust before smoking\" width=\"227\" height=\"170\" \/>The sawdust before smoking.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2329 size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Sawdust after smoking\" src=\"https:\/\/coquinaria.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/rookoventje4.kl_.jpg\" alt=\"Sawdust after smoking\" width=\"227\" height=\"170\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The sawdust after smoking.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>2.

Sprinkle the sawdust on the foil. Using something to create some distance (little empty cans of tomato pur\u00e9e) place a plate as dripping tray. Use a fitting grid or something like bamboo skewers which have been steeped in water for half an hour. Place the food on the grid or skewers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2331 size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Pan for smoking on the stove\" src=\"https:\/\/coquinaria.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/rookpan2.kl_.jpg\" alt=\"Pan for smoking on the stove\" width=\"227\" height=\"170\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Cover the pan.
