    Going to try cold smoking belly bacon: suggestions

    I think he's referring to oversmoking. Like when I smoked a pork butt, i probably only got 2-3 hours of good smoke. The rest of the time was just low cooking basically. Over smoking can lead to bitterness, but maybe thats not the case for bacon??

    I do the same thing, no need for the "cord hanger". I think the cover is a must have if you keep your unit outside at all times like i do.

    Just received my 6x8 AMNS today. I also ordered 4# of the pitmasters blend. I received oak. Not a big deal at all, i realized it was probably a mistake. I contacted them through email and received a reply in just a few short minutes from the owner telling me that he would be sending me 5#s of...

    I've actually done full baby backs without having to cut it half, it was tight, but possible.

    First Cheese Cold Smoke

    Was able to cold smoke some swiss, mozz, muenster, and cheddar today. I used a combo of hickory and cherry wood. I did about 2-3 hours of smoke using the cold smoke plate that I bought for the Smokin-It Model 1. It prompted me to purchase and AMNS as even in 30 degree weather the temps crept up...

    Ive got the number 1 and it has plenty of room for a small get together. You could easily fit a decent sized shoulder and a few racks of ribs in there. Maybe I wish i got the 2 for "just in case" moments, but im very happy with the #1. Im going to be purchasing the amazen dust smoker for cold...
