Hey there! So, listen up. I just had this wild idea that we absolutely need to talk about today. It’s all about making a cold smoke box addon for your grill. I know, it sounds fancy but it’s actually way easier than figuring out how to fold a fitted sheet – which we all know is basically impossible.
So why a cold smoke box? Well, have you ever tried smoked cheese? Or bacon? No? What are you waiting for! It’ll change your life like when you discover pizza rolls exist. Let’s jump into the magical world of cold smoking!
Step One: Gather Your Stuff
Alright, first things first. You gotta get some stuff. Grab an empty tin can or an old metal box. You can even use a shoe box if you’re feeling adventurous, but make sure you don’t want to wear those shoes again.
Step Two: Drill Like a Pro
Now comes the fun part! Take your drill or whatever weird tool you have around and poke some holes into your tin can or box. This is where the magic happens, my friend! Make them big enough for smoke to come out but not so huge that it looks like Swiss cheese.
Step Three: Get Some Wood Chips
You can’t smoke stuff without wood chips! It’s like trying to bake cookies with no sugar. You’ll want some good wood chips like hickory or cherry – not the ones from that sketchy tree in your neighbor’s yard that looks like it might be haunted.
Step Four: Create Your Cold Smoke Zone
Once you got your can ready and your wood chips, it’s time to assemble it all! Put those chips in the can and place it right on top of the heat source of your grill. But don’t turn up the heat too high—remember we are cold smoking here, not cooking marshmallows in a volcano.
Step Five: Add Some Ventilation
But wait, we’re not done yet! We need air flow for our little smoke party too. Just take a paper towel tube or anything similar and attach it to one of your holes in the tin can/box thingy. The other end should stick out so that smoke goes right into your grill area where the food is hangin’ out.
Step Six: Time to Smoke Stuff
Okay now you’re ready! Toss whatever deliciousness you’ve brought to the grill into that smokey dream zone you’ve created. Cheese, nuts, meats – it doesn’t matter; everything tastes better when it’s been hit by magic smoke clouds.
Step Seven: Be Patient
Now here’s where you gotta channel your inner Zen master because it takes time. You gotta wait at least 30 minutes maybe longer depending on what you’re smoking. And while you’re waiting, try not to eat all the snacks sitting around because believe me – hot cheese straight off a grill makes people go crazy!
