Smoked the steelhead. Wife thinks she brined for too long. I thought she put it in this morning, she put it in the brine before going to bed last night. So it was in the brine all night and most of the day. Smoked in the bradley for 2.5 hours till an IT of 140F. IT was 25F outside where the smoker was. Temp in the smoker stayed really close to the 170F mark for the entire time. The first pic is after brine and prior to going in the smoker.
The second pic is after it came out of the smoker.
 
I've never heard them called steelhead, but I usually grill em up. I've never even thought of smoking or brining them.
 
we have smoked salmon and trout in the past. Steelhead start to run this time of year and if you ggogle them you will find them everywhere. We live in Idaho.
 
No pics but would love to see them when you get them posted... For those of you who have never seen or heard of one, here you go...
