Our Hot-Smoked Wild King salmon is custom smoked for us at a facility here in Seattle. We allocate just-the-right Wild Alaskan King salmon fillets to be portioned and then shipped to our smoker twice a week. The fish will be brined with salt and brown sugar, dried with moving air in a special cooler, and then hot smoked with Alder at low temperatures and for many hours. The high oil content of the King salmon allows the fish to remain moist and the flavor to remain balanced and not overpowered by the smoke. The flavor is pleasantly smoky, buttery, and rich; the texture has a medium flake size, is moist, tender, and decadent. There are a lot of different types of Smoked salmon out there, but nothing compares to a Hot-Smoked Wild King salmon when it comes to flavor and texture.
