Freezing smoked fish ?

[gaddy]

I have been told not to freeze it. Never had enough to worry about as it gets eaten pretty fast. I am wanting to smoke up some before the cold sets in and the Little Chief gets put away for winter, gonna happen pretty quick I think. What I have been told was that if you froze it, It will break down during the thaw and turn to crap due to the brine and smoke ? I vacuum pack so I don't think it should be a big deal. Your thought or experiences ?

Freeze it, i do it all the time and it thaws just fine in the fridge.
I just thawed some a week ago and made smoked salmon cream cheese dip with half and just ate the rest.

I have 2+ year old smoked salmon vacuum packed in the freezer. I won't say it's as good as the day I smoked it, but it's definitely good.

Thanks !! Got a dip recipe the wife likes and I just like having the stuff to snack on. First year that I have had any extra to put away. Thanks again

Freeze away, I freeze chunked smoked salmon in 1 gallon ziplocks. Always had one in the fridge to use in anything you wish, and between 5 and 10 in the freezer.

I freeze lots of it. I wrap the smoked  fish in saran wrap and then vaccume pack it. Lasts for years and you cant tell the difference once you pull it out.

vac pack and freeze it.  Never noticed any decline, stays awesome and thaws out quickly

Like others are saying, freeze it.  I vac pack mine and it is perfectly fine when thawed.  I always try to have some on hand for salmon dip as well.

break down due to brine and smoke ?  Thats stops it from going to crap lol, lets it cool, vacuum pack it and freeze it

Thanks all !! As you can tell, I'm pretty new at this. Smoking some up tomorrow.
