wsm - cold smoke modifications

[baltic bushman]

my set up to cold smoke bacon, working great so far. I'll post a photo of the end results later

That looks FUN! I've wondered about coldsmoking on WSM. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Nice! I had considered modding the door for mine to take a mailbox mod type duct like that. Haven't been able to find a sacrificial WSM yet and I'm not paying $35 just for a door!

That's awesome . What is the bottom part ?

I just use an A-MAZE-N tray burning pellet dust, but could see where your setup has cleaner smoke. I'm watching this!

Never seen a mod like this for a WSM. i have done cold smoking with my WSM 22 for jerky but i have never tried bacon. i use a small ring of charcoal for a little bit of heat and a AMNPS for smoke. i can cold smoke for 10 hrs at a time with that setup.

Try Good Will. Every once in a while they'll have a large piece of stainless steel (larger than cookie sheet size) or aluminum cookie sheets come in. You can make a door out of them just for cold smoking.

now that my Cajun bandit door is confirmed to work and probably never coming off, maybe i can use my old door for this :D

Use a piece of cardboard, cut to fit everything, and use some foil tape to seal it and hold everything together.

I use the AMNPS tray and pellets for cold smoking. No heat. The pellet tray provides just enough heat to warm the chamber about 15-20 degrees.
