Do you like smoked meat? Smoking offers a lot of advantages. Not only do you get great tasting food, the smoking acts as a natural preservative. You’ll know that what you serve to your family and friends is delicious, healthy, and safe.
If you want to smoke your own meat, why not build yourself a smokehouse. The one featured here is made from very simple materials, using basic tools – and it’s been built by a self-professed amateur! By following the instructions in the link below this gallery, you’ll be able to make your own regardless of your skill levels.
The best part of building it on your own is that you can customize the size of the smokehouse, allowing you to fit it in your yard. You can also minimize the cost by using local materials that are abundant and cheap. And you don’t need to pay extra for the services of a contractor building it for you.
By the way, have you tried smoking cheeses or mushrooms. Yum!
