Do you honestly mean to tell me that the Little Chief has a use other than a paperweight in the garage? That's where it's been for 5 years. I tried it once, just after I got it as a gift. I used the recipe from the booklet and some high dollar chips. I ended up with Trout jerky after annoying every neighbor within a block with the smoke. It did still taste OK, I must admit. I haven't dared try it again for fear of ruining some tasty meat treats.
I could try it again, but why do that when the GF's dad smoked a turkey last Thanksgiving, using Jack Daniels chips (yes, sold in a bag), WOW!!! Bar none, the best bird I've ever eaten. He's a welding instructor, you can imagine his 4'X6'X3' smoker is permanantly installed into his shop, right next to the plasma cutting table. I'll just let him do the smoking from now on. The only problem now is catching enough fish to get him to fire it up.
