I thank you for your kind words but was not my intention to belittle the hard work you have done on your smoker as it looks great. I spent way to many hours on it , but now that's it's complete and working great, I'm glad I spent the time. Thanks for your reply and smoke on!!
 
Absolutely no belittling on your part....You did superb workmanship job....When I said you put me back in to my place it was in absolutely positive way... looking forward to hear how it works...
 
Great looking smokehouse, and by the looks of the salmon it works really well.

Not that it matters to me, but i find it funny what most people are drawn to , maybe it's more relevant to what there doing? Thanks for your comments, appreciate them!
 
Oh...wow!

I am really out of compliments. If i lived another life i couldnt make that.

I would put that in my dinning room - would call it dinerware/stemware/liquor cabinet. My wife would fall for it, especially after seeing the live edge piece.

Beautiful.

Thanks, you might be stretching it with the wife comment , lol but thanks!
 
What is the purpose of the live edge board?
It's a fold out tray so to speak, I can place a rack on it if I'm rotating the racks in the smoker , to place glaze and utensils, just a place to set things down when playing inside smoker . I thought the live edge would look cool. I have access to a lot of different wood as my friend that lives close by has a saw mill at his place. We trade off with different things and I get lumber.
 
Any chance to write a short story how do you smoke fish in that beauty of smoker... temperature, smoking time lenght, type of wood... etc...
I have to start by apologizing for not seeing your comments, I thought I would log in as I have not do so in some time. Im actually checking smoker as I'm doing a hot smoke with a fresh not previously frozen fish I caught the other day. It was a 16 lb spring, great size and super fight especially for this time of year. I would pass along my details of a cold smoke and a hot smoke , however I can't do until a smoke salmon contest that I'm going to enter has being completed. The contest is in July in Sooke BC on Vancouver island. Same gentleman has won I believe the last 2 or 3 years since it started. Not that he would ever care about my method but possibly others. I will provide details after contest and depending on the out come you can decide if my product is worth looking at . Appreciate comments!

Thing of beauty!
Thanks for comment, I was smoking continuously for about two months there and have slowed down now, but smoker still looks great inside, racks have preformed excellent, have had no damage to any of them, clean up is super easy. I have done numerous runs of hot and cold smoke salmon and yellowfin tuna for friends and there comments of finished product is , best they ever had. Very pleased about how smoker is working. Enjoy!
