Where There's Smoke, There's...Whiskey, Fish, and Barbecue!

We are at the Boston Smoked Fish Headquarters, and a huge rack of maybe a dozen trays of gorgeous golden brown smoked salmon just rolled by.

Matt Bauman (0:11)

I came out of the smoker just about an hour ago. So we're about 2,500 square feet of fish processing space here. And we're smoking five to six times a week, so you're always going to smell this wonderful aromas of the cherry and pecan woods that we use.

The pecan wood really gives kind of a nice unctuous bacony flavor to the fish. And then at the end, we finished it off with cherry, which has a really nice sweet floral bouquet.

Nicola Twilley (0:41)

Oh, God, I love smoked fish. Please tell me this is an episode all about smoked fish, where all we do is eat smoked fish.
