There is nothing like the taste of a wonderful piece of Smoked Beef Brisket! Well, actually we love pretty much anything that comes out of the smoker in this house from pork ribs to chicken to even our Thanksgiving Day Turkey!
Ken invested in a little electric smoker and it has been the best investment, actually, we are on our second one now. Ken loves to smoke and you will see his creations on here from time to time. All so good!!!

I love smoking food but struggle with the fussing and fretting over charcoal smokers. I was interested in your view of electric smokers. What model do you have please?
