Smoked salmon is a staple of Western healthy cuisine, brunch platters and light salads. The low and stable temperature control of a kamado ceramic grill enables gentle cold smoking to lock in the tender, flaky texture of salmon without overcooking the delicate fish flesh.
Dry-brine the thick salmon fillet with fine sea salt in the fridge for 1 hour, rinse off excess salt and air-dry the surface completely to form a pellicle, which holds smoke flavor better.
Set the kamado grill to indirect low heat at 65–70°C, load apple wood chips for mild fruity smoke. Smoke the salmon fillet for 1.5 hours slowly. Brush a thin layer of pure maple syrup on top, scatter fresh dill leaves, then put back for another 20 minutes to set the sweet glaze.
Chill the finished smoked salmon before slicing thin pieces. Serve with bagels, cream cheese sauce or fresh green salad. This seafood recipe expands the application scenarios of your kamado grill beyond traditional red meat BBQ, attracting health-conscious consumers.
