>>978171>i want to get into smoking but i don't really have a place to do it at home and would like to try it maybe car camping on the cheap rather than buy a $250 smoker i might use twice a year> i can only find sporadic information about it online> anyone have any experiences or setups they want to share?At home I use a giant terra cotta pot smoker like Alton Brown created. It works very well. About $50 investment, I use mine on my apartment balcony.
I don't think Brisket would be possible but you can definitely do a rack of spare ribs, a few slabs of beef ribs, or a whole pork shoulder. I have also cold smoked pork belly (bacon). The key is chunk hardwoods and good temperature and air control. You may have to experiment a bit but it's worth it.
