Smoked catfish fillet: Slice the garlic into thin pieces, crush the bay leaves, and mix with salt and pepper.
Rinse the fish, pat it dry, and rub it with the seasoning. Leave in the refrigerator for 12 hours.
Prepare the Kamado BONO grill for indirect cooking. Light the charcoal with a starter, add smoking chunks, place the stainless steel grate, and wait until the temperature reaches 90°C.
Partially close the top and bottom vents to maintain an even temperature. Place the fish on the grate, skin side down. Smoke for 85 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 72°C.
