LOL---I'll get this one Meateater!

Somebody we all know well has neighbors who keep squealing on him for smoking on the balcony.

His Landlady has read him the riot act & warned his smokin' butt, I think, a couple times.

He actually went out and got a watt burner, but I'm not sure what he's been using lately, or where he's been using it.

I told him he could come to my house & smoke with anything he wants, but he seems to have acquired a taste for bread & water.   

Hope that covers it,

Bear

Ah, I understand all that apartment jazz. I recently got a notice that I couldn't have a charcoal pit (my original lease says nothing about this) and was told I had to remove it from the property. So I called and asked if I could mount a propane tank on my pit and keep it. They said "yes and thanks for working with us on this issue". So I added a bottom plate of ply wood and a side plate, stained them to match the redwood handles and mounted a tank under there. The tank isn't plumbed in, doesn't do anything other than sit there, but it looks like a propane grill. Even got a letter from management thanking me for compliance......

Propane Brinkmann.

Good job!

I think in the case I mentioned, there was discussion of running an electric cord to his UDS, because they said he could have a watt burner.   

Maybe he will comment on that???

Well since I live 2 blocks from the chesapeake bay and have an abundance of blue crabs, I decided to give this a try. I removed shell, broke them in half and then rinsed all the "mustard" out. Put them in the smoker  @225 for 40 minutes using alder wood chips. Came out delicious and tasted like black forest ham...sort of. Next time I will smoke a little longer and try hickory instead. Thanks for the idea.
