Question about Windy Day Smoking

[bigronhuntalot]

I was planning on smoking some rainbow trout but the wind is blowing here at about 20mph plus. Will it effect the quality of the smoking session? I will be using a Bradley Electric Smoker.

Thanks

If you can set up some sort of windbreak around the smoker so it will block it? this will help to keep a more consistant temp in the smoker. Search windbreak/redneck windbreak and you will see some that others have done!!!!!!!!!!Good Luck...

You can toss a blanket over the unit too. Make sure it's not a synthetic cloth tho... that could get REAL messy. I use a chunk of natural sisal fiber carpet.

But up a wind break or if you can move the smoker to an area out of the wind that is sheltered..........

wind will really mess with ya

Wind can suck the heat out of a smoker even quicker then cold can. Windbreask works great and you can build one out of a couple spare pieces of plywood and some hinges.
