Cold Smokers
Cold Smokers make it possible to give ingredients a rich smoky flavour without cooking them. With a cold smoker, you can smoke products such as salmon, cheese, nuts, butter and meat at a low temperature. This allows ingredients to retain their texture while developing a deep and authentic smoky flavour. Cold Smokers are popular among BBQ enthusiasts who want to take their dishes to the next level.
What are Cold Smokers
Cold Smokers are tools that generate smoke without causing the temperature to rise significantly. As a result, the temperature usually remains below 30 degrees and products are not cooked during the smoking process. Cold smokers are easy to use in a kamado or smoker. Fill the smoker with smoking dust or fine smoking wood and let it smoulder slowly. This creates a constant supply of smoke for an extended period.
Benefits of Cold Smokers
Cold Smokers provide an intense smoky flavour without ingredients losing their texture. This makes them ideal for cold-smoking fish, cheese and cured meats. This way, you can add extra flavour without cooking or baking.
In addition, cold smokers use little smoking dust and many models can produce smoke for hours. This means you hardly need to refill them during the smoking process. Enjoy a user-friendly way of cold smoking.
