Besides the obvious question of when did Williams-Sonoma become a head shop (heh, look at the thumbnail picture of the reversible meat tenderizer about halfway down the page on the right side.... giggity.) the $100 price tag would keep me away - for that kind of money, one could buy a brand new Luhr-Jensen Little Chief electric smoker and a couple bags of wood chips.

Getting past all that and just looking at the device...

I suppose you could, although it takes time for the smoke to penetrate and I don't know how well that will or won't work with larger pieces and the ziplock bag trick like she was using on the salt. I'm sure it would work to infuse a bag of cheese cubes though, and if you're careful, even shredded cheese or slices, so long as you don't mind the taste of fresh smoked cheese - it can be kind of different than after it has had some time for the flavors to meld while resting in a vacuum sealed bag.:-)

Will somebody PLEASE smoke something this weekend?? Haha, I am going to thaw out a pack of small bone
spares tonight, the old three racks to a pack packs. That should fire up the weekend a bitsky. Might ought
to get a sack of taters foh ta make up some tater salad. Kart over to the place where they stack the vegetables,
I'll have to find where that part of the store is, though. Get me some sweet taters. Some comfort food for the
new year. No cabbage or black-eyed peas for me.

I will be doing a couple of butts, possibly a brisket, and more than likely a couple of slabs of ribs New Years Eve for a small group of friends that are going to ring in the New Year with us. Of course, a couple of cigars will be offered up as burnt offerings as well (provided I can kick this bug my office passed to me).

If the weather cooperates, I might smoke a fatty for the herf w/ dball at groog's place on Friday.

On a side note...my daughter and I met a friend from out of town yesterday at a local BBQ joint. As we were leaving, I saw a mobil unit in back so we stepped around to have a look. It was a Klose moble unit. Very sweet!
[Reply]

It won't be me... I have sworn that I have to use some of the stuff out of the freezer first:-) Heck even my black-eyed peas and collards are coming out of the freezer. Wait... I do have some sausage chubs... maybe I will fire up the little BGE and smoke a couple of fatties!!!

I have two fatties ready to go on for the herf today, as soon as I've had at least part of my cup of coffee, I'll head outside and light the smoker.
