KIPPERED?
What is the difference between smoked and kippered? And what is the process. A number of us are stumped when asked,,, so I throw this one to “The Board”
Thanks,
Sam,,,

Hi Heres what I have found!
These are different processes from Scotch smoking which is cold smoking- the fish remains raw. Kippering and barbecuing are hot smoke processes where the fish is cooked. In barbecuing you have no control
over the heat; the smoke is hot only. The fish is placed in a pre-heated smoke oven and kept there until cooked. The only control
is smoke on or off during prolonged cooking. In kippering you gradually bring up the heat to condition the fish before final hot smoking and cooking.
This is from the article on "Smoking Salmon And Trout Part VII" and you can get the rest at the following location!

Good Luck!
