    The grill needs to have a slightly smaller diameter than the lid. That way everything will fit just fine, no aluminum foil needed.

    DIY is a great idea but only if you have enough knowledge. In my country a lot of men won't read the instructions, they never ask a local for directions because of course they know where they are going and they set off on a new project with enthusiasm however said project never get finished. They also thing that they can renovate the house themselves. I think that all these traits are really quite adorable. I admire anyone willing to give it a go.

I already have sous vide but.... to do smoking you need induction or cooktop at least, and I didn't find any cooktop that syncs to a thermometer, like the paragon does.

    This is awesome & I'm definitely going to try this for smoking my homemade bacon since its WAY too cold in Vermont right now to be outside for long periods of time (-20 some days). I did have an idea though...instead of drilling a hole in the wok lid, I removed the handle & the hole where the screw goes is the perfect size to insert my thermometer along with a loop of butcher's twine (knot on the inside to hold it in place) to act as a handle. Then replace the handle when you're done.

    Soak salmon in brine (1tbps salt to every 250ml water) for minimum an hour to overnight.
    Cook the salmon sous vide at 40.6C for an hours.
    Using the wok smoker, smoke the salmon for another 10-15 mins on low heat.

      I wanted to sit the fish in the dead center of the wok. The closer the fish sat to the actual wood chips it started taking on a bad taste, the smoke and heat was too aggressive. So I bought a grill grate that sat it directly in the middle away from the top where the smoke in concentrated and away from the bottom from the hot embers. It just yielded the best neutral smoke flavor.

    • @jackdawson2889
      @jackdawson2889 6 лет назад +7

      To lower and increase temperature is to control it. A thermometer does not do that, it only measures temperature. You don't control the heat with this DIY smoker unless you take the lid off. This smoker tells you when you should. High tech smokers can raise and lower the heat by turning on/off the heat source=actual control.

    • @robmckennie4203
      @robmckennie4203 6 лет назад

      You control the heat by moving it off the heating element, or turning the element down, but you're not able to regulate the temperature unless you know what the temperature is, hence the thermometer.

    • @jackdawson2889

      The thermometer measures temperature, true, but without that measurement you can't effect proper control of the temperature, and that's what Clifford is referring to when he talks about the thermometer allowing him to have control.
