Good for you! Wowsers! I have always wanted to do this – but Vanja isn’t too excited. He has done it most of his life, before moving to Canada. A bnch of his friends got a pig the first few years we were together… and they cured the entire thing – then smoked a lot of it – but got the Hungarian Grocer to smoke it – from Budapest Deli… it was heavenly… but they stopped doing it. I am trying to talk him into doing it again so I could learn… and this sausage making has really got me going. Total control of your ingredients. Yummmmm. I want to come to dinner!Where’s your recipe?

H.Peter: We have had smoked chicken (amazing as chicken salad sandwiches) and ribs as well in the past 10 days we have owned the miracle box. Next up Mike plans to do brisket.

The Bradley is amazing. My father prefers to smoke the old-fashioned way, fussing over temperatures, wood chip size and such on a BBQ smoke box. The Bradley takes away from that sort of experience, but the results are
no less delicious. You also have the added benefit of “setting it and forgetting it.”

The two minor quibbles seem to be the cleaning of it and the fact that you are limited to using the Bradley wood chip pucks. They have plenty of flavours however, so it might only bother the most demanding of BBQ aficionados.

It comes down to a matter of budget and cooking style preference, really. But the flavour speaks for itself.
