Bourbon Smoker

My wife bought me a Breville cocktail smoker for Christmas. I've not yet given it a try. Feels a little intimidating. Anyone tried one of these?

Not familiar with that brand or product.  My wife got me a Foghat (this was during COVID) which I thought was cool, but didn't work as well as I had hoped it would.  Then @tanstaafl2 shared a MUCH better way (might be in a thread on here, or could have been at some whiskey event). 

 

I now basically have a kit that consists of oak chips, small metal dish for lighting, jar w/ lid for capturing/integrating smoke - and a torch.  Post below provides step-by-step instructions.  This works well for making just one/two at the house (if I was entertaining and trying to do larger quantities, this doesn't really scale).

Pretty much on line with what Gary says above...

 

Couple years ago, got a Tophat from one of my Sons & a fancier one from another Son on the same Christmas. 

 

The Tophat is quicker to use and good for a couple drinks only.

The fancy one; better for a several drinks at once but not really used much, here. I'm guessing it is on line with the Breville. Not hard to use but no so much worth the effort, at least to me.

If you are partying with a group, you can get some mileage out of it.
