Soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes.
Finely chop the dill and cut the lemon in half.
Squeeze the juice from one-half of a lemon then season with salt, pepper and the chopped dill.
At the barbecue
Prepare the barbecue for indirect heat, approx. 170 °C. If using a 57cm charcoal barbecue, you will need 1/2 chimney starter of lit Weber briquettes.
Drain the wood chips then place them directly on the lit briquettes. If using a gas barbecue you can putt the wood chips in a smoke box.
When you see smoke start to come out of the barbecue vents you can place the fish on the barbecue, over indirect heat.
Close the lid and let it smoke for approx. 15 minutes or until the core temperature reaches 55°C.
When the fish is ready remove from the barbecue and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Tips
You can also use pines or herbs for smoking to get a different smoke flavour.
