Cold Smoker 5 Metres High
Posted: Wed Mar 18, 2015 12:14 am
Hi, I reposted this topic as I now know what it is and the art in which to use it.
I just sat down with my friend for hours and talked all about his technique of smoking. While we chatted I ate pork that had basically been cured outside on a plastic picnic table with a tea towel.
I have been blown away with what I learnt today. Not only how and when to select the animal you are going to kill but the best cuts and how to cure it without any heat, in just a cold smoker. I take my hat off to anyone that can feed me pork that hasn't seen heat to cook it. He also gave me a rundown on the delicacy of eating half cured/smoked sausages which they do every time they smoke sausages.
Not only did I learn the basics of this art but also when\where\how etc. I learnt what ingredients to put in and what not to. He is going to teach me how to cook this way and take me under his wing.
Please forgive me if I use the wrong names/terminology for things but only have ever cooked on charcoal, never smoked a thing.
Here is his smoker. It has 102 butcher hooks up top. I look forward to posting my first time ever pics in smoking meat.
