Woodcraft or farming or 'red-neck' people (whatever you want to call us) brought wood smoking of meats and fish and game to the USA and Canada from Europe. and we learned a bit more from our First Nations people. Personally, I have smoked turkey, ham, streaky bacon, chicken, beef brisket and pork baby back ribs. I have smoked salmon filets. but I usually use the Norwegian 'gravlox' method of salting and herbing and spicing the filets and then curing them in the refrigerator. Traditionally, the treated filets were 'buried' in clean soil for a time: 'gravd' means buried, as in graves. If we are just a bit good at it, the results, when using quality meat, poultry and fish, are equal to a fine specialist purveyor. Plus, we know where things came from and how they were processed and smoked We tend to use something more elaborate than your stove top/fire top smoker and chips box so that we enclose the protein being treated, wrapping it continuously in 'cold' smoke or warm smoke for the entire period.

As an ex-pat I get a good supply of HP original and fruity from the many British food stores online here. This year our local (supermarket) grocery store started a British section in the ethnic food area. They now sell original but, it ain't cheap. Next visitor from UK will not only have marmite and Oxo cubes on their to bring list but, HP original too. As for smoking, we smoke salmon, steel head, tuna bellies, ling cod, halibut, Turkey, chicken, ham, brisket, baby back ribs. Got a couple of smokers so that fish and meat don't mingle. You too will have to come over to the Pacific north west here in southern Oregon and make some fishing and forest videos.

Hello from Oklahoma Great video. When I'm in the woods my favorite meal is a hobo dinner. Basically a good slice of onion, a piece of meat (porkchop my favorite) seasoned, a potato sliced on top of that, a carrot tops that. Its all wrapped in 2 or 3 good layers of tin foil then frozen. Once i get a bed of coals I lay it on the coals. About 15 to 20 minutes later its ready to eat. Also I make my fire pit the diameter of my bow saws length. Makes it easy to keep my firewood the right length. Keep up the good work. What kinda folding saw is that? God Bless

Hi guys from Canada, for a time I thought this Fort Camp was gone, destroyed or other. Felt so sad cause it really is my favorite. I love pan fried trout in butter and herbs on a campfire, as well as a big breakfast of bacon, sausages, eggs, and pan fried potatoes. Percolated Italian Lavazza Rossa Coffee with real cream, and a shot of brandy. Take care and enjoy as much as you can

Here in the USA, folks like me with a farm heritage, smoke baby-back racks of pork ribs, salt-cured and sweet-cured hams, chicken and whole turkeys and, of course, beef briskets. In most cases, our goal is to use cool-smoking techniques to prevent dryness and to aid in preservation. You are smoking mackerel: is that the same idea as Finnan Haddie?

Hiya Pal and thanks for posting, fish looked absolutely amazing, and really interesting about using a smoke box. My favourite meal is tandoori chicken kebabs (homemade sauce and marinade) in flat breads with yoghurt and mint sauce. However, will be having a go at smoking some meat next I think, all the best to you and your Dad, Nick

Beautiful place for peace and tranquility. As a descendant of English blood. Im intending to get to England and explore what the country has to offer as far as nature. I dislike the city and am more at home in the woods, one with nature and God. Keep the videos coming. Stay safe and God Speed to you and your Dad.

I love it when you and your dad get together and do things together in the woods. I have a son probably in the same age bracket and would love to spend more time with him doing like stuff but can't because he works a lot. Thanks again I really enjoy all you two do for folks like me

Hey taoutdoorsLove your videos always great to watch -Got 2 question for you: 1. In the UK how can you find out who the land owners are to obtain permission? 2. Can you list a few places in the UK which don't require permissions? Thanks mate
