I'm not sure I would smoke tuna. Altho Hot Tuna does smoke. I would slice
it in 1 inch steaks and marinate in soy, ginger, garlic, sherry, and chile
of choice, and a little seasame (sp) oil, then grill over direct heat 'till
mid rare to medium. I think tuna would dry out if smoked for too long of a
time. I've been known to smoke about anything, 'ceptin tuna.
