So I set up my little harbor freight shed to use as my outdoor kitchen for the winter and decided to do a chuck roast over the weekend for some chili. I keep the front of it wide open and then pull open the cover at the rear peak for a little extra exhaust spot for the smoke. I noticed the roof was sagging a little too much over the stack, so I took some twine and stretched it across the posts for support. The twine just happened to cross directly over the top of the stack.
A few hours into the cook, I was standing in the tent, staring at my new smoke stain on the ceiling and noticed it was damp. and then I looked over and saw some dripping coming from the lower end of the twine. I probably stood there and stared at it with a blank look on my face for five good minutes before it finally clicked what was going on. I ran into the house and set the glass on the ground and started collecting!
I don't use liquid smoke very often, but there is definitely a time and place for it. This had a really nice scent to it, and even had a touch of the rub that I used on the chucky.
Before you say anything, the heat coming out of that stack isn't even close to being hot enough to melt anything.
