    Ok. Question. You wrap the fattie in plastic first and then put into fridge before the weave. How long in the fridge? Just until the weave is ready? Also why wrap in plastic again and back in the fridge after the weave and for how long?

    Tube smoker

    Good idea. This tube smoker is going to increase the smoky flavor in my meats and cheeses now. As mentioned chips are ok but they don't smoke that long. Tube smoker will change that
