Editorial Review:
Most books on the subject of smoking include a drawing or two, a few pages on generating smoke, and the rest of the pages are filled with recipes. While those recipes usually get the spotlight, the technical know-how behind preparing and smoking meats is far more important. When writing about cold or hot smoke the authors don't end on just giving the temperature range for a particular method. They also explain why one way is better for making certain products than the other. The second part of the book "The Smokehouse Design" contains all that is known about smoker design and is supported with over 100 drawings and 50 photographs. Many of them are detailed technical drawings with all dimensions for building fully functional units. Some of them can almost be made without any costs involved and when ready will allow for making products of the highest quality.

great for smokehouse design-recipes need work
I bought this for my husband for Christmas and we were both very impressed by the detailed information of smokehouse design. We were disappointed however in the fact that the authors are so pushy in their enthusiastic use of nitrates in the recipes. We wanted to smoke our own meat for the very reason of avoiding these chemicals and no alternative recipes are given for smoking meat without them. 2008-01-30
