The stainless steel Smokin Tex Hot-or-Cold Smoker is fully insulated. According to Sur La Table, the smoker can infuse smoky flavor into up to 38 pounds of meet, fish or poultry without sacrificing its tenderness. To use the smoker, just insert wood chips into its smoker box, program it to the proper temperature for the meat you’re preparing, and shut the door.
