The bigger mullet taste better, gotta brush the black out, makes them bitter.

i sample with different stuff each time. i usually brush on something wet and tasty, you pick. then sprinkle some seasoning salt, lightly. there are a million different ways to coat the fish, but "marinating" them is not necessary. since they can take up to 3 hours or more at 150-175, the flavor has time to soak in. i wouldnt recommend soaking them in anything. just brush it on right before and add your favorite seasoning. actually, no marinade and just some lemon pepper tastes great too!! you will always get the basice smoked flavor, you'll just want to use some seasoning to sweeten the meat up a bit. smoking w/o seasoning tends to make them bitter. and the most important part, clean clean clean the rib area and throroughly rinse off the blood, fat, slime etc.... i dont skin or scale my fillets, makes them easier to handle and adds some flavor too, some like it that way, some dont. and i never never never use lighter fluid to start my coals or wood. ever.

yeah, cant wait till they start getting big and fat. went out last saturday and a few were jarheads starting to develop roe sacs. smoked yellow roe is real tasty too.

for rammerjammer, brushing the black out means getting that black lining out of the rib area, if you dont, then.

also for a more pleasant eating experience, i make sure all the dorsal fins and the leading little bones to the fins are sliced out/off. i only leave the rib bones in cause to cut them out would mean cutting out the belly, too good to waste.

Yeah, I noticed that you didn't cut the rib cage out.  Thanks for the tips!

it just might change your mind about what your favorite fish is. white meat fish like snapper and grouper smoke up ok, but it is the oily fish like mullet, salmon, mackeral, pompano that smoke up the best.
