Hi Macca,
Now you've got me salivating, love smoked mussels. I've got one of those smokers but never thought of smoking them myself.
Can you tell me the details of how to smoke them please. I don't want to go through the trial and error stage and ruin them.
Cheers mate.

Once you have some mussels! these were a kilo of live blue mussels from SA. Get an old expert to shuck them LOL.

Set up smoker as you normally do but not much fuel as there is not a lot to cook compared to a whole fish or chicken, I have the bottom of 4 beer cans and fill to the top of the "dome".

Sprinkle your saw dust over the base as usual. A light sprinkle of salt is all that is done to season the mussel, these were really sweet so doesnt need sugar.

Light it up then when finished eat straight from the smoker as dad is. Of course a Carlton Draft in a NP.com cooler is optional (as in the pic).

Enjoy
