Stir together the salt and brown in a small bowl.
Place the salmon filet on a baking sheet and cover both sides of the salmon with the brown sugar and salt mixture.
Cover and refrigerate for 6-8 hours.

Baste the salmon with the honey mixture every 15 minutes.
Remove the salmon from the smoker. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
Then the salmon is ready to serve and enjoy!
