    Fridge smoker (hopefully)

    I just came into possession of an old GE Fridge and I had the idea of turning it into a gravity feed smoker. I am just in the planning stages and I had some questions for anyone that had modified an old fridge into a smoker before (or built a small gravity fed unit). In some of the threads...

    GE Monitor Top Fridge Build

    What was the size of the chute that you used? I want to convert an old fridge that I found to a gravity feed smoker, but the only dimensions I can find for the Chute/firebox are 8x8/10x10 which seems way to large for the internal area of my fridge (15x23x41")

    Gravity Fed Smoker

    Looks very nice! What are the dimensions of your charcoal chute, an why is your ash catcher so large?

    316 grade stainless steel for smoker build

    And what about superaustenitic stainless steel, or duplex steel? Nitronic 50 Stainless is more corrosion resistant than 316l with twice the durability.

    tapatalk opening smf, but not finding right forum

    thanks for the reply! Sucks that it hinders the site. I've been trying it for a few months and I'm still not sold. I like the idea, but it never seems to work out easier in actuality. I thought it would make it easier to keep track of old forgotten threads, but tapatalk seems to forget them...

    tapatalk opening smf, but not finding right forum

    When I search Google sometimes results come up from smf, and when I click on the link tapatalk opens and goes to smf, but not the individual forum the result had returned, only the main smf page. Anyone have any clue why, or how to fix it?

    Gravity Feed Firebox/Chute Sizing?

    How did this work out for you? I'm thinking of building a gravity feed smoker into an old fridge and have no clue as to how to size it.

    Dry Cure 1st time

    Prague powder is ~93.75% plain salt and only 6.25% sodium nitrate which is the actual curing agent, so, yes it adds to the saltiness.   Diggingdogfarm's calculator takes this in to account, so don't change the amounts from what it gives you. http://diggingdogfarm.com/page2.html

    How cold is too cold for cold smoking

    I'm having my second go at cold smoking bacon (first time went well a few months ago, but 6 hours seemed a little light).  Temps around me at night are currently ~34-45 at night when I smoke and, with my smoke daddy style smoke maker, the temp inside my smoke chamber (very fancy name for a...

    Debunking Beer Can Chicken

    BPA is a chemical added to certain plastics resins (especially PVC, and polycarbonate - type 3 and 7) as a placticizer, basically to improve flexibility.   It started out as an artificial estrogen, but was never used as such when it was found to be an endocrine disrupter, but then was found to...

    Debunking Beer Can Chicken

    For me, when the beer comes out, worse things usually happen then just missing intonation in a hastily written post.  Concentrate on the smoken and don't worry about it.

    Debunking Beer Can Chicken

    In case I was unclear when I said the idiotic article was click-bait, I was referring to the article that is the subject in the original post. An article that would definitely come up on the yahoo home page, and tells people that something many of them do everyday is debunked, and dangerous to...
