    Is it just me, and is it wrong

    I used high temp silicone in several places on my smoker and so far so good.  It is rated to 450 degrees if I remember correctly, but I've only had it up to 300.  It was silver but now it is all stained a beautiful deep brown, I even used it to make my own door gasket.  Good luck with the build!

    What to Do?

    That is quite a find and I definitely see lot of potential there.  Getting out all the rubber and plastic will probably be a chore.  I was surprised how much there was even in the 1950's fridge I converted.  If you have an interest in cold smoking, slap on a smoke generator and shelving or dowel...

    First ribs in my converted refrigerator

    I had some family visiting so I decided to fire up the old Frigidaire.  I made two racks of spare ribs and two racks of baby backs.  Smoked for 3 hours at 210 with pecan wood basting with apple juice, then rapped in foil and held at 170 for two more hours.  Everyone loved them and not a single...

    Just the beginning of my fridge smoker project

    Well I still want to paint the outside and finish a few minor details, but that is going to have to wait until this winter probably.  I have ran the smoker three times now with no problems.  The PID controller works like a charm and the little Smoke Daddy puffs away with whatever I fill it with...

    My father's day alder smoked chicken (with queview)

    Thanks.  It is an electric strip heater for the heat source with a PID controller I built myself.  You can check out the whole build here if you are interested.  http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/forum/thread/91229/just-the-beginning-of-my-fridge-smoker-project I think alder is neutral enough...

    My father's day alder smoked chicken (with queview)

    Here is the smoked chicken I did for father's day.  The whole chickens were rubbed with olive oil and three different seasonings.  One Cajun, one Greek and the third is barbeque.   They were smoked for three hours at 250 with alder wood, then ramped up to 325 for 30 minutes to crisp the skin. ...
