Hey all, thanks for the add. I am fairly new to smoking and most of my experience has been using lil chief's in AK for salmon and and meat.
Now I'm learning about cold smoking, and desire to build one. I have multiple old fridges/freezers that I often refer to as my "family of classics"
The one I have in mind is from the 50-60's its a Gibson much like one that has been built on here actually.
A couple of questions for ya'll
I will verify but at that vintage, it should be fiberglass not foam, will this be ok for cold smoking?
is the plastic inside of the fridge ok for this?
I am still working out what I want to use as the smoke generator. might build a small aluminum box similarly to the mail box. but I want something a tad more subtle on the styling department.
thought about using a electric smoker like the lil chief and just plumbing it into the fridge, would they be the easiest way?
what kind of length of "hose" should I attempt to keep from the hot box to the cook box?
thanks in advance I'll be searching like a madman for the next few days.
