When I was down in Naples teaching, I was introduced to a tube smoker. It is a smart product. It uses wood pellets for fuel and then all it needs is a heat source. It slow burns, smolders, for several hours, producing a consistent smoke in almost any space. It opens up the idea of what a smoker can be. We now have the ability to mix herbs, teas, coffee, spices, and more in with wood pellets, put them in the tube smoker, and let them smoke and add flavor to anything we want, anywhere we go.
