    Converting Smoker to Electric

    I had good luck using the replacement element and adjustable thermostat  for an electric "Old Smokey" on my Bradley. I think it was through a third party on Amazon and was around $66 for both pieces.  The parts came with a metal plate for holding a wood chunk that rests on the element. Search...

    New Electric Smoker For Me

    Thanks Mike, I will try that. I ended up slicing it real thin and it made good sandwiches  for all of us.  I am eager to try a butt next time. I love that smoker  and think I will have to leave it to someone in my will, The only way that sturdy thing won't be around is if  a tornado gets it- and...

    my smoked chicken is tasteless and chalky

    New Electric Smoker For Me

     I have had an electric refrigerator style smoker for many years. It generated heat by a 500 w halogen bulb and   a bit of heat from a puck burner that generated the smoke. After the  expensive smoke generator broke the second time and grease had ruined the controls, which were on the bottom of...
