1
Prepare the Halibut
Rinse the wild caught Alaskan halibut under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
2
Marinate the Halibut
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Brush this mixture evenly over the halibut to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
3
Prepare the Smoker
Soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes. This will help create smoke when cooking. Drain the chips and place them in the smoker.
4
Smoke the Halibut
Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Once heated, place the marinated halibut on the smoker rack. Close the lid and smoke for about 30-40 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
5
Serve
Remove the halibut from the smoker and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve warm with additional lemon wedges if desired.
