Ingredients
  

  • Mahi Mahi filets
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup paprika All Purpose Rub
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar All Purpose Rub
  • 1/4 cup white sugar All Purpose Rub
  • 1/4 cup garlic powder All Purpose Rub
  • 2 tbsp onion powder All Purpose Rub
  • 2 tbsp salt All Purpose Rub
  • 1 tbsp black pepper All Purpose Rub
  • 1 tbsp chili powder All Purpose Rub
  • 1 tbsp oregano All Purpose Rub
  • 2 tsp cayenne pepper All Purpose Rub

Instructions
 

  • Set up your grill for indirect cooking/smoking and aim for a temperature of 250F. If you are using a Traeger grill then set the grill to 250F and use mild wood pellets such as apple.
  • Place a piece of tin foil on the side without heat. You'll put your fish filet's on the foil.
  • Combine the All Purpose Rub ingredients and mix well to combine.
  • Spread some olive oil across the filet, then sprinkle some all purpose rub.
  • Place the filet on the foil on your grill, away from the heat.
  • Add wood chips/chunks - I used apple and - and smoke for about 30 minutes, until the internal temp is around 145 and the fish flakes easily

Notes

This is a meaty fish that has a mild flavor.  Go easy on the seasoning and the smoke levels so you will be able to taste the fish and not just the rub and smoke.
