Smoke the eels in the box

1. For smoking, first hang the gutted and washed eels on the metal rod positioned in the box.
2. You then have to tape the cut-out flap shut.
3. After taping the box, you have to put the smoking meal in a disposable grill tray and light it. Read the instructions on the package to find out how much smoking flour you will need. The amount varies depending on how many eels you want to smoke at one time.
4. Now you have to put the eels approx. Smoke for 90 minutes in your homemade smoker. When the eels are golden yellow, they are finished smoking and can be taken out of the smoker.

You can now serve the eels whole, for example, or cut them into small pieces for a buffet.
