For many, nothing is quite as mouthwatering as a glazed smoked ham or a side of perfectly smoked salmon. Smoking has long been favored by connoisseurs and laymen alike as an inexpensive way to give foods that extra zest. But questions persist: "How long do you smoke for? What's the best type of wood to use? What's the difference between cold and hot smoking?" All the answers are in this ultimate how-to guide. Whatever the food or the type of smoker (electric or wooden), there's a detailed description that even beginners will easily follow. With useful troubleshooting tips, advice on herbs and spices, and over 30 recipes (including the author's legendary Swiss Steak and Smoked Crabmeat), this handy book transforms smoking into an art.
