Our New Smoker

[Ryrin]

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.

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!

[Ryrin]

Yes! You smoke the meat.

[Guest]

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?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

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!

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

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

[Ryrin]

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.

[Ryrin]

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

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.

[Guest]

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

[Rhea]

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!

[Ryrin]

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.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

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

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

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.

[Rhea]

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

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

I'd be happy with an electric one

[Ryrin]

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.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

You get similar results but less satisfaction I think.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

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

[Rhea]

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