Title: Y'all should get a gas powered smoker.
Post by: dennisK on July 02, 2008, 09:49:45 AM

I've been using a gas powered smoker now for about two years (paid about $300 for Smokey Mountain Series gas smoker)...

The best things about it is consistent heat, huge space (30 pounds of salmon no problemo) and versatility.

 I used to only smoke salmon in it but now have branched out to other meats/veggies (you can get it up to 500 degrees cooking temperature if you want)....

I did a chicken in it this weekend with root vegetables...and all i have to say is wow...chicken tasted like ham.

Consider a gas powered smoker...I'm very pleased with the results...

Seriously consider getting a small battery operated fan at the bottom to swirl the smoke and act as a "convection" mechanism plus a probe thermometer for measuring the meat temperature.  Otherwise, it's just like this one:

90 mins at 350...put in the bird first and then the veggies for under an hour...

also which is great is I use one of those standup things for the chicken so it fit in no problem since it is too high sometimes for an oven...

Nothing beats the Bradley Digital Smoker. I love mine. Set it and leave it.
