\"Smoked<\/a><\/p>

To date I had only eaten canned Tuna and never gave fresh Tuna much of a thought.\u00a0 After smoking some fresh Tuna I look forward to experiencing this delicacy more often using varied recipes.\u00a0 Found the smoked Tuna to be a tad less moist than smoked Salmon but none the less exquisite!!<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Fresh<\/a><\/p>

Received two thick filets of fresh Tuna from a friend at MAK Grills and decided to smoke the Tuna using a simple time honored recipe which I've used many times for Salmon.\u00a0 Due to it's thickness I chose to slice the filet in half and cut into even sized pieces.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Marinated<\/a><\/p>

Marinated the fresh Tuna in a gallon sized ZipLoc bag using Mr Yoshida's Sweet Teriyaki Original Gourmet Marinade & Cooking Sauce for 4 hours in the refrigerator making sure to rotate the Tuna hourly to ensure even application.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Marinated<\/a><\/p>

Patted the marinaded Tuna dry with a paper towel before drying the Tuna, uncovered, in the refrigerator for at least one hour until the surface of the fish became dry and matte-like to the touch.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Smoked<\/a><\/p>

Preheated the Green Mountain Grill Davy Crockett<\/a> to 180\u00baF using Pacific Pellet Gourmet BBQ Hickory<\/a> wood pellets.\u00a0 Smoked the Tuna at 180\u00ba for an hour and then increased the pit temperature to 250\u00baF until the internal temperature<\/a> of the Tuna reached 145\u00baF.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Smoked<\/a><\/p>

The Money $Shot$ ...\u00a0 Scrumptious - to say the least!!<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
