Mmm, deer venison smoked sounds really good. I have yet to try it, sticking with salmon so far. Made friends with a hunter/fisher that says he'll likely get me some deer meat next season for putting him on some fish. Let us know how it turns out and more importantly the recipe Figure the basic smoked salmon brine with teriyaki added might work. I like the little bit of apple flavor from using 1/2 apple juice with a wet brine. Spicing up the deer might be fun too. Have fun with it! And life in general of course...
PS- that's another beautiful salmon you are holding there.
