Tried this for a different way to serve Tilapia. Made it up from several different recipes I found online. It really turned out really yummy!!! The salty, spicy, sweet combination with the smoke infusion makes the fish really flavorful. Preparation time includes brine time. I took the advice of the review and cut the salt down from 1 cup to 1/2 cup. I agree, made it a better recipe, thanks for the advice.

Steps:
- Dissolve sugar and salt in the water. Stir and dissolve.
- Add the fillets and refrigerate for minimum of 1 hour and up to 4.
- About an hour before marinating is complete start up smoker.
- You are looking for a temperature of about 200 F and no higher than 225°F.
- Use a good hard wood of your choice. I use pecan most of the time. Alder, hickory, mesquite and cherry are all nice.
- Mix up the salt, pepper and cayenne.
- Take out the Fillets, rinse then pat dry.
- Drizzle olive oil on a platter.
- Place fish on the platter and slide em around to oil the bottoms.
- Generously coat the tops only with honey.
- Sprinkle the mixed seasonings on top only.
- Place fillets directly on grate of prepared smoker and smoke for 1 hour.
