Cold smoked meats are or should always be cured with a sodium nitrite or sodium nitrate cure. Depending on the method of curing, some products can be kept safely for months or even years without refrigeration. Ham, bacon, salami, summer sausage, and smoked sausage are some examples of cold smoked meats. Cold smoked meats may be smoked for up to several hours or even days and are almost always smoked at temperatures between 90Â° F and 120Â° F., well within the Temperature Danger Zone.
Hot-smoked salmon is cooked in the process of smoking, whereas cold-smoked salmon (like Lox) is cold-smoked, with the product never exceeding 85Â° F. Hot-smoking accomplishes two ends: (1) flavoring and preserving the fish with smoke, and (2) cooking it just until the flesh is denatured, or opaque.ot-smoked salmon is cooked in the process of smoking, whereas cold-smoked salmon (like Lox) is cold-smoked, with the product never exceeding 85Â° F.
