Something Ive come up with, tin foil packet, leave the top open, salt, sugar, slice of orange with a little of the leftover orange juice, and honey drizzled over everything. Awesome.

i think you have just about got it.

we use tinfoil, lemon juice, salt (dash of brown sugar) and....

in my teens i was a fishing guide up on the norther coast of BC and spent most of my youth salmon and trout fishing the northern coast.

however you missed the key ingredient, which is real maple syrup (not aunt jamina but the actual stuff) instead of honey....you don't need a whole lot if the salmon is fresh.

actually, i just smoked up approximately 30 pounds of salmon caught on my dad's boat. we covered in in a salt brine mixture for 48 hours before-hand to draw out the water. then smoked it for approx an hour with some special wood mixtures. wow is this [censored] tender.

cheers,

ps. also, i would definately recommend keeping the skin on whenever possible when cooking salmon. it keeps it moist and improves the flavour. whereas, white meat fish, such as cod fare quit well as true filets.
