Hi Guys,
This is what it is all about for me, using my allotment in every way. I love cooking so the smoker was just another thing I wanted to include. Within time when everything is growing, I can have the meat in the smoker and prepare the salad whilst I wait!

I do what I do because I've got so much love for it; gardening, being handy, working with everything from compost and seeds, to timber and trees I enjoy it all, regardless of the weather, any day spent gardening is a good day.

@angelay1925 5 лет назад

As long as youve started your charcoal well before putting it in the smoker you don't need extra ventilation at the bottom of it, there is enough of a gap to give it a really slow burn for long slow smoking. Enjoy 😊

@user-2uf2kr2c 2 года назад

you're suppose to have a smaller grill to put the charcoal on. it needs to be elevated so oxygen can get in from the bottom. the aluminumfoil for the bottompart is a great idea though. regards

@phillipegen8471 3 года назад

Looks yum. Well done mate

@iwmorgan05 4 года назад

Wow, looks exactly like the same smoker I also just bought for under £40. I first used it last Sunday and did a BBQ first just over the hot charcoal and with only the bottom piece to have some quick food, that was great :-) I then added more charcoal, and whisky chips that I had soaked for a day but wrapped in an aluminium tin, leaving it open at the top and placed directly on the charcoal. I then added the water bowl and that contained soaked mixed pickling herbs and spices. On the bottom rack I placed similar sized joints of beef, lamb and pork, but not wrapped in foil. On the top rack I put chicken thighs, duck breast, tuna steak, mackerel fillets, trout fillets and shelled boiled eggs, also unwrapped, and just left it to cook overnight. I had no problem with the airflow and the chimney vent was closed - heat rises saw draws in the air at the bottom. Everything turned out fully cooked, really tasty, and succulent. I didn't add any sauces or marinade the food beforehand, and didn't even brine my joints like I usually do. So more experimentation to come! So pleased to have come across this video though :-)

Good video, the suspense almost killed me...... not really being an ex-pat now living in Northern Arizona I was interested to see how well BBQ/ Smoking has progressed in the UK... Well Done mate.... I have a similar set up except using a propane burner... less fuss ( instant gratification) ... the Jack Daniels chips was a surprise... we have lots of mesquite here so its cheap and plentiful... i encourage you to start making your own sauces for basting... and please invest in a brush.. nevertheless I really enjoyed your video... i just discovered this one whilst researching the best way to smoke a Standing Prime Rib...... my wife comes up with these challenges every so often... my smoked turkey was a huge success last year. sooooo. Merry Christmas from a somewhat cool 5,400 ft elevation right on route 66 , Arizona, God Bless and Keep Smokin !!!!!

@Spence1175 4 года назад

I started with this very smoker and am very glad I did ! It's very hands on and teaches you alot on how to smoke. I moved up to the Pit-barrel which was next level but still very hands on , which I like. I now own a Traeger ! I would recommend his smoker to anyone getting started, great little smoker !

I just bought yesterday the same BBQ for 80 euros , and I watched this very carefully because when i assembled it i was a bit mixed up about it at the bottom part of this bbq because it was just a tray and the surrounding was uncovered . Thanks for this video a good explaining video . Some advise for the next time you need a camera person to watch the movement of your hands doing 😉 good luck 👍 and thanks .

@markberry9007 4 года назад

Only when the temp starts to fall I would add in one or two charcoal briquettes to maintain the heat

There is another separate dish he put water in that sits on the next level a bit higher than the coals.

@andrewdavid9597 4 года назад

@grind18 6 месяцев назад

It's more like grilling rather than smoking but no denying it tastes good. When you smoke it's a neccessity to dry meat before smoking - in case of not doing so, meat surface becomes eventually black (after, let's say 3 hours of smoking) and that's due to harmfull substances coming from smoke easier sticking to meat surface. Same thing with immersing smoke chips in the water - it doesn't give you more smoke - it gives you more water vapour which is not what gives a smoked meat it's taste and aroma and as with wet meat - it helps sticking aforementioned substances to stick to the meat. It's not the case in this video, probably because it's has been smoking for like half an hour and the rest of the time was grilling.

@katief510 5 лет назад

I should know from watching, but are you growing rosemary Joe. Makes for a perfect basting brush & straight in the compost when done.

You know how something so obvious and correct can elude you because you've always done something a certain way.... Stuffing the starter with paper before filling with coals... Instead of frustratingly stuffing paper underneath it. 🤦Genius

@jeremysargent5037 4 года назад

5 hours for 3 sets of ribs and some chicken wings isn't worth it. 5 hours for brisket, a whole chicken or a pork roast is worth it. Nice review of the smoker grill and how it works mate.

@diggingfordinner 3 года назад

The water goes in the water trays inside the smoker (two were included) it doesn’t go on the coals because that would “obviously” reduce the heat they produce and would be incorrect.

@craigluhr7243 4 года назад

Your smoker is a copy of a Char Broil Cajun Smoker. I have used these for years. They work better if you drill some vent holes through the bottom of the charcoal pan. This will give some air flow for a cleaner burn. Just put a tray under it to catch the ash.

@DC-xs5cv 3 года назад

As a previous Traeger+ user, the switch to Asmoke has been a game changer for me. The flavor infusion with the wood pellets from Asmoke is unparalleled, and the convenience of the digital controller for precise temperature control has improved my smoking game by leaps and bounds. The ASCA™ technology ensures efficient cooking and the FlameTech patent for temperature control is truly commendable. What I love most is the portability, it's battery-powered and perfect for outings. I can take it camping, tailgating, picnicking, you name it! The best part is, I can monitor the temperature and create and share recipes via the app. It's not just a grill, it's a comprehensive grilling experience. #Asmoke

@cybernode33 2 месяца назад

As a previous Traeger+ user, I decided to switch to Asmoke due to its impressive features and performance. The precise temperature control within 5°F, achieved by the FlameTech patent, made a significant difference to my cooking. The portability of the Asmoke grill, thanks to its battery-powered design, changed my outdoor cooking game entirely. It's perfect for outings, and with up to 10 hours of runtime, it's a true game-changer. The convenience of remote temperature adjustment and food temperature monitoring via the app is a fantastic feature. The added bonus of being able to share my recipes is a creative outlet I truly appreciate. The diverse flavors from the wood pellets are simply amazing, enhancing the taste of my smoked ribs tremendously. I've never looked back since making the switch. #Asmoke
