Smoked Salmon Recipe | Weber Smokey Mountain Cooker | Tuffy Stone

Salmon is a perfect fish for grilling because of the high fat content, which provides moisture in cooking. Because it’s not a fragile fish, it stands up to the heat of the grill well. We’ve got our Grill Ambassador Tuffy Stone showing you how to make the best Smoked Salmon recipe on the Weber Smokey Mountain!

4 (6-ounce) fillets salmon

¾ cup yogurt
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon lemon juice
¼ teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon granulated sugar or simple syrup
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

Salmon Recipe:
About 30 minutes before smoking the salmon, dust each evenly on all sides with 1 tablespoon Dill Rub.
When you are ready to cook, heat the smoker to 300 degrees F.
Spray the grill grates with pan spray and place the salmon portions directly on the grates. Close the smoker lid, and cook about 20 minutes or until done.
Serve each portion with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the Cucumber Yogurt Sauce and pass the remaining sauce around the table.
