The SmokePistol BBQ smoke generator is great for hot smoking and cold smoking. Just light a cartridge, insert it into the SmokePistol and you have continuous smoke for 4 - 5 hours on a single cartridge, Cartridges are available in 10 real wood flavors and are made of real wood with nothing else. Quickly attaches to any BBQ grill or smoker. The smoke output is fully adjustable with an electronic control. Can even be hooked up to a cooler for cold smoking of fish, cheese, etc. There is no reason to wait. This costs less than a dinner for 2 in a BBQ restaurant, it is on special now and if you don't like it just send it back within 30 days for a full product refund. Get smoking hot ribs or cold smoking cheese and fish. Very unique and works great.
