Hi, Offset smoker in the summer but indoor smoker in the winter..
Back Bacon being smoked that I prefer portioned ready to vaccu seal later...
I am starting with 1 1/2 hrs. cold smoke to dry them more . Then smoke them hot/cold intermittently that I pre programmed. I am using a mix of maple/hickory/ cherry pellets.

Do you use it in the house or garage? The one review I read said that it would set off a smoke detector. I have an Oster smoker/roaster oven that I impulse bought yrs ago that works well but its definitely an outside rig.

Mine, I researched a lot..Indoor on the counter ... When you want to smoke in bulk, use the offset smoker in the summer. For me, this one is great for smoking about 7 lbs of meat for winter's sake..

It has taken 2.5 hours on the cold/hot smoke and a very small handful of wood pellets ..more or less 1/4 c of it.. Will post results tomorrow..

Very interesting.
 
That setup looks kinda interesting, Louise. I've never seen or heard of one of those before. So please do post some more of your smokes in that gizmo.
I would have thought that you'd get enough chinooks down in Calgary that you'd be able to smoke outside lots of days throughout the winter.
