Tour Scotland Photograph Arbroath Smokies Shop

Tour Scotland photograph of an Arbroath Smokies Shop in Arbroath, Scotland. Arbroath Smokies, for which Arbroath is well known nationally and internationally, are made solely in Arbroath. Smokies are made from haddock using traditional methods dating back to the late 1800s where the fish are first salted overnight to preserve them, before being left tied in pairs to dry. Next, the dried fish are hung in a special barrel containing a hardwood fire and covered with a lid. After around an hour of smoking, the fish are golden brown and ready to eat. The preparation of Smokies remains a cottage industry in Arbroath, centred almost exclusively at the harbour area, though one larger processor, RR Spink, supplies Arbroath Smokies to HM Queen Elizabeth II for which the company holds a Royal Warrant.
