Prepare the Tilapia for Smoking

Spread the tilapia filets out on a baking sheet. Brush the bottoms of the filets with a thin layer of cooking oil so they do not stick ot the grill grates on the smoker.

Brush a little bit of warmed honey onto each filet. You do not need too much.

Sprinkle the Black Magic Spice rub or your favorite BBQ seasoning on the filets.

Add any additonal salt and pepper as needed.

Set up the Grill or Smoker

Light or turn on your smoker and set up the temperature to 275°F. If using a grill, set up the burners or charcoal for indirect cooking

Brush the grill grates with oil to keep the fish from sticking.

Add your wood chunks directly to the firebox of a smoker, or use chips in a smoker box, or pellets in a tube smoker on a gas grill.

Smoking the Tilapia

Once smoke is being produced, put your tilapia filets in the smoker with the seasoned honey side UP.

Continue cooking the tilapia in the smoker until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F using an instant read thermometer.

Remove from the smoker and serve immediately.
