If you like my review, please give it a thumbs-up. I only write reviews to help fellow Amazon shoppers. I am not compensated for any products, (I buy them with my own money, like many of you) and I write what I experience in order to make Amazon Reviews better for us all.Hot smoke, cold smoke, coal smoke, chips smoke, chunks smoke; which one to choose?As a fairly accomplished home cook and occasional caterer (for select friends only), I enjoy making incredible food.I started experimenting making Lox, or Gravlax, after a recent trip to Seattle, having been impressed with the variety and selection of fish products during our trip.Having hot-smoked meats, foul, ribs and fish in my Weber Smokey Mountain (WSM), I was up to the task to expand my cooking and cold smoke was the next challenge.I knew my WSM would generate too much heat for a cold-smoked lox so I started my research for a cold smoke generator.And friends, this one is it!For my lox experiment, I bought a sack of maple wood pellets and loaded them into this smoke generator. Filling the tube around half full and then leveling it to evenly disperse the pellets into the tube.To light the pellets, I placed the open end of this smoke generator on my grill's side burner and left it there for a few minutes until i had a nice smoke stream emanating from the holes in the tube.I then moved the smoke generator to my cold Weber grill grates (see pics) and placed my brined salmon (atop a cooking rack for maximum air/smoke circulation) onto the grill grates and covered the grill hood.Basically, the desired method for cold smoking is to capture and encapsulate your foods that you seek to cold smoke in as small a space as possible to allow the cold smoke to wash over and bathe your food in smoke. Doing this is what imparts the smoke flavor, all without adding heat and cooking the food you're smoking.I kept the smoke generator tube around 10 inches away from the salmon and let the smoke waft all around it for 90 minutes.OH MY GOD! The flavor on this salmon was incredible and the amount of smoke generated was PERFECT!If you're seeking a quality, well made cold smoke generator, this unit is IT! Look no further.Now if you're going to use Traeger or other pellet types to create smoke from, you'll need to get those pellets smoking. A gentle match will not work. You must burn/ignite them for a few minutes until they start to smolder.You can use a torch burner or a grill's side burner but budget at least a few minutes to get those pellets smoking.Once lit, your pellets will gently burn through the tube, consuming/igniting the remaining pellets inside the tube.And that folks it your lesson in how to get this tube to be the perfect cold smoke generator.I hope your success is as good or better than mine. I am 100% satisfied with this tool and look forward to many more smoke sessions with many different foods.And remember to click "helpful" if you find my review of value.

I have been using wood chips for years, with my gas and charcoal grills. I have never been satisfied with the amount of smoke that I get out of the wood chips, either soaked or dry. After purchasing this smoke tube, I am absolutely overwhelmed as to what I had been missing over the years, by not using wood pellets. After purchasing the cheapest wood pellets that I can get my hands on, it’s easy to fill the tube with either one kind two kinds or as many flavors as you want wood pellets, with different smoke combinations. I put the tube in the gas barbecue up under the burner, and I get smoke within five minutes, that lasts approximately two hours. During those two hours, the smoke is very intense, and imparts the smoke into the meat that I am barbecuing. The pellets burn completely, and leave very little fine ash behind, which makes cleaning the grill a lot easier. For my cold smoker, I ordered the 6 inch version of the smoke tube, so that the tube would fit under the meat in my cold smoker. I fire the pellets in the tube up with a propane torch, prior to putting the tube into my cold smoker. That way, very little heat transfers to the product, such as eggs, oysters and cheese. I am very satisfied with this product.

Love the Traeger my father bought me for Christmas. I BBQ and my only issue is the Traeger does not produce a lot of "smoke". Reservedly, I tried this. Not a fan of adding chips in a hot box on the grill. However, the tube was perfect. It smoldered for a full 4 hours+. It was light and white, perfect amount. I ignited mine with my weed torch and got it flaming for 5 minutes. Blew the flame out, placed in center back of grill. Works for me, couldn't be happier.

I've tried a couple of cold smoke methods, ruining a cheeit load of eggs and cheese. This tube fixt everything. Ya fill it, ya light it, ya leave it to do its job, ya smoke perfect cheese. Don't understand the silicone basting brush that comes with it, but now I own two basting brushes. Well build, should even be able to stand up to my abuse. It won't roll around like the round units, and comes with hooks to so you can hang the also hang the mother. Not to mention it was less expensive than most of the others. Quick and easy if ya don't wanna get your big smoker out...lay it all on a sheet pan and throw a box over it. Burns pellets, small chips, even dust (from the bottom of the bin) I love it!

I have an electric smoker which I like, but this smoke tube adds lots of versatility for under $20.I wanted something to add smoke to my BBQ grill and that I could use to cold smoke. This perfectly fits the bill. I'd used a box kinda smoker for years, but it burned chips really fast. This tube smoker goes a long time on about a cup of pellets. They advertise 5 hours and I believe it. I used it to cold smoke cheese, it worked great.If you're looking to dabble in the smoking arts, this is a great place to start.

Très bonne qualités
