Cold Smoke Generator for Food Smoking, Long-lasting Cold Smoker, Maze Smoker for Cold Smoking, Outdoor Smokers for any BBQ or Cabinet, Small

Works witch pellets (grinded). Just get magic bullet, or magic bullet like blender and a hudge bag of pellets- cheap. My favourite was always mequito (in some cases mixed with hickory). Grind them, but dont put too much into a container, as may damage the engine. I usually use about half of long coctail glass at one time. To fill it up, need to grind about one glass. Pellets (grinded), will burn out a the twice of the speed of sawdust, but thats just great for me. I also never light it up using candle. Just use small blowtorch, or get one corner over stove fire for few minutes. Amazing smoked cheese on cobb bbq. As I like it a bit more melted inside, with skin quite hard and nicely coloured, have to give it abit of temperature going. Got tiny metal net conteiner (round one, with the chain) from local korean supermarket. I think, its to be used while cooking a soup, to put stuff in, close it and chain it to the edge of the pot. What I do, is to put cheese pieces on the cobb bbq roasting rack and get grinded pelets going unbeneath for few ours (all covered with lid). Than I fill up round container with ungrinded pellets, close it, start it on stove and place it cobb bbq burning basket (just under still working smoke generator, with plenty to burn). Pellets burn quickly allowing hot air flow to speed up generator- what means, I have to keep oppening cobb and placing cheese on other side each 5-8 minutes, before smoked skin breakes and melted cheese form inside would get out (creating a mess). Its all about timing and checking temperature incide cobb bbq, but during last hour cheese is bombarded by smoke and temperature, what gives amazing effects.

super easy to use, have now smoked cheese, chillies, garlic, and salmon, works a treat

This little cold smoker is an absolute must for anyone considering smoking food, or even for old hands at food smoking.Size wise, it's 15x15x4cm. It's made of metal mesh securely attached to a solid metal frame. At the outside corner there is a little ramped area where a tea-light candle is inserted for a minute or so to start the smoke dust off smouldering. Smoke dust is filled along the mesh spiral, and once lit it slowly spirals into the centre, smouldering as it goes. Once lit the filled smoker will smoulder away evenly for about ten hours or so (give or take).I use a Bradley Smoker and the smoke Bisquettes (their spelling, not mine) get quite expensive if the recipe calls for long cold smoking or even longish warm/hot smoking. This little cold smoke generator fits in the bottom of my Bradley quite easily and will smoke for ten hours at a fraction of the cost of doing it with Bradley Bisquettes.... Lets do a simple cost comparison to show you how much more economically this smoker works: The cheapest Bradley Bisquettes I can find cost around £20 for 48 Bisquettes. These burn at the rate of 20 minutes per Bisquette, meaning they cost around £1.25 an hour. This Cold smoke generator takes about 80g of smoke dust to fill, and burns for ten hours. I buy smoke dust online from smokedust.co.uk at £3.99 per 450g, which means it costs around 7p per hour. Quite a significant saving if you are smoking overnight, for example, or even over a period of days.I haven't just used it in my Bradley, I've used it in my small kettle BBQ (The cheap garden type you get from DIY shops) and even in a small wooden tool-shed set up as a small smokehouse, and it gives great results every time.The smoker gives off virtually no heat so you have to worry less about the temperature of your smoke chamber/smokehouse when cold smoking... not entirely forget about temps, of course, but definitely fret less... certainly less than if you were using wood chips. It has also never gone out on me yet, meaning even less hassle. It imparts just the right amount of smoky flavour to the foods too, making it entirely fit for purpose... a rarity in many products these days, I'm sure you'll agree.In summary then, this Cold Smoke Generator is an "on off the charts amazing" little gem, and a practical must for anyone even considering doing some home cold smoking... With a little jiggery pokery and imagination it can also be used in a hot smoke set up too (if the chamber is heated electrically or with gas). 5 STARS!

I should have been more patient and waited for the bigger version but the small version works really well. The sawdust sent with the generator was excellent, my oak sawdust is not as fine which is probably why I have to top up regularly. The generator has helped create some excellent smoked trout.

This exceeded my expectations. I mean the reviews were good but I thought it would chew through the smoking ‘dust’ relatively quickly. I filled up the first straight and a half, which did take quite a bit of powder but it created smoke for 2.5 hours. Maybe it’s just me but I thought that was pretty good. While filling the whole thing will take a lot it clearly will burn for the 12 hours. Smoke intensity is good and I got great results in my box smoker with some duck breast. Will be doing fish next but very confident that it will work well. Great addition to the barbecue tools and easy enough for the beginner

This is simple and effective. Ideal for a small smoking box (even a cardboard box with care). I have a larger BBQ and so it doesn't really fill it with lots of smoke - the volume is too large. I cheated and just lit both ends (double the smoke, shorter burn time) and that was perfect. I'm therefore going to get the larger one.The tealight starting mechanism is fine but the downside is waiting and then removing the tea light and the accretion of black waxy soot that gets all over your fingers. I have gas bars in my BBQ so I just place the smoker there, fire it up and then turn off the flame once it's caught. In future I would suggest a small gas blowtorch to get things going.That just leaves a maze-like run and a mesh bottom. Perfect. Does its job, but be ready to flex how you use it based on your own setup.

Yes all good thanks
