Anyone portion it out and vacuum seal it for freezing? How did it defrost and cook? Thanks.

I usually just use it thawed from the store when I buy it but sometimes I'll freeze a filet or two to cold smoke at a later date and that works out fine for me.

I will dry brine it first to remove some of the moisture and add some flavor before cold smoking it. When done, I'll slice it razor thin and eat it with crackers or add some chopped up in Philly Cream Cheese with some fresh herbs from the garden added in to spread on a bagel.
