Picked up a new toy!
-
They look a lot like another nice smoker I have seen. I think maybe marketed under a different name, Cookshack maybe?
processhead yeah they are pretty similar. Another one that is close to it is Smoking-It brand. I can’t believe what these things cost! I still want to make a smoker out an old 1950s fridge that I can get.

I was bored earlier today and was looking on a local marketplace site and saw an add for a smoker. It was a Lil Tex 1400 for $60. I opened the add and it said he’d take $50 for it. I couldn’t call him fast enough. They are selling new for over $600! I can’t afford a PK100 right now so I will make this work. I plugged in to check it out and I’m rolling smoke! Score!!!

I had a similar experience with a meat band saw. Since we’ll be butchering 4-5 hogs this fall I was shopping around and she asked what the meat saw would do for us. I showed her a video of one and 2 seconds in she exclaimed “We need that!”
Its so nice when they enable our obsessions.

ND Mike Much like my wife, she understands about these things now that she is more involved in home processing. She helps me make sausage and sauerkraut.

bocephus I wonder what a bbq sauce with it might taste like ?
-
craigrice I don’t know, it might be pretty good. If I can ever talk her into an extra pint I might try to make some. I am pretty tight with it, don’t hardly share with my wife.
