My husband kept rambling on about a custom smoker he ordered but now I'm most pleased with both the tri-tip and Beer Can Chicken (and the smoker.)  Salmon is coming.

 

My only thought when I read that last line...

What is it? Something to make food in?

Was I wondering too ... lol ... I thought you meant someone had taken up smoking cigarettes! :P

I was thinking the exact same thing at first!

Yes! You smoke the meat.

Where do you put the meat in? Is it held in the middle somehow? Is there a fire at the bottom? What is the tap for?

Appears to be made of a beer keg or oil drum and I'm guessing it's propane?

 

I want an electric one but we don't have a good spot for it :(

 

I've used a regular little kettle grill to smoke but we have no place for that, either, and it's a bit of a pain.

 

Oy such a beautiful smoker and it shall never know bacon...

 

But brisket is teh bomb smoked!

I think the spiggots control air and temp, and possibly the gas.

No propane. Wood and a special kind of charcoal. I'll post pics of the inside later. My husband's friend has multiple welding certificates.

I'll post pics tomorrow. My internet is hinky tonight. Looks like a storm is coming in.

........My brain went to the Mistborn world........

It most certainly is. :)

I'm glad I'm not the only one who had no idea what this was. How creative! I imagine it's good for people who live in townships or cities.

I agree! It really is a nice idea when you can't have a bbq (for example).

OMG!!! My husband cannot see that!!!! He will faint. 

 

I'm going to have to get him one! How???? Did his friend make it for him?

 

Must

 

Have

 

It!

Yes, his friend made it for him. We have a nice BBQ as well. Smoked meat tastes different than the grill. I don't live in a city.

A smoker is like what people with barbecues lust after the most

It's what you make ham and bacon and smoked salmon and smoked brisket smoked turkey and a million true smoked barbecue delicacies in.

 

It is among the finest of cooking equipment and I want it.

Man...I want him to make one for my hubby! 49ers and all!!!

I'd be happy with an electric one

Rhea, mailing the thing might be hard.

 

Cindy, do you know if you get the same results in the meat from an electric one?

 

The 2 tri-tips we brought to the SCA BBQ and swim party were great. My friend gave us this really cool meat slicer too.

You get similar results but less satisfaction I think.

They have quite a few smokers of all types on Amazon with free shipping for prime.

Im going to have to find someone here to make him one!
