Smoked Tilapia Tacos
« on: July 17, 2017, 07:56:32 PM »
i am really enjoying smoking tilapia.. this is the second time i've smoked it
it's so easy and fast. set smoker to 225 wait for it to start showing smoke then put in the fish filets in a high sided cookie sheet so the liquid stays with them actually seems to work out very well rather than letting the juices drip away... and smoke them for 1 hour over some sugar maple

my wife made some nice saffron rice and we just put the fish the rice and some guacamole on the soft flour tortillas.. all the flavors really shine through.. very simple very good

the only hard part is pushing away from the table.

Sounds good.  Did you put anything on them before the smoke?

yeah i forgot to mention for a short while a couple hours or less maybe my wife made a mild soy sauce based marinade .. not sure what was in it and she's not here right now.. but she kept it pretty week since the fish is so mild .. so as to not overpower it..

the previous time i made them i just made them plain .. no marinade nothing on them at all.. they came out great both times..
