Will someone please give me some direction on smoking a small quantity of Cobia fillets. I have a Weber kettle and plenty of pecan wood.
I want to try Eddie Joe's fish dip receipt.

OK Ken hereya go:
Get a large glass or plastic bowl:
add:
3/4 cup kosher or other non iodized salt
dissolve in one quart water
add
2.5 T sugar
2 T lemon juice
1.5t onion powder
1t garlic powder
0.5t old bay
cut fish into serving size pieces and submerge in salt solution. Use plates to hold the fish in the water if necessary. Leave in for about 3 hours.
Remove fish, dry off.
Prepare the cooker by making a charcoal fire and letting it burn to a white ash or so. Move charcoal to one side, and add hickory chips that have been soaked to the charcoal. put fish on cool side of grill on greased grid. Smoke slowly for about three hours, adding hickory about every half hour to keep it smoking. Make sure it doesn't get too hot.
Remove fish, enjoy.
