First saw this item being used on a cooking show ...and knew I had to have one. I had no expectations of this product, but after trying it, I was really glad I purchased it. I've tried chicken breasts, fish and vegetables (new potatoes,asparagus and tomatoes) so far. This smoker adds great flavor and the chicken breasts come out delicious and moist everytime! The fish is always cooked perfectly! ( and I always overcook fish!!) This smoker won't let you fail! The woodchips that come with it are just the right intensity to add great flavor to whatever you're cooking. The variety allows you freedom to experiment! The instruction/recipe book gives you simple and clear instructions, and offers suggestions on woodchip-flavor selection. If you remember to use the foil and spray the rack with oil as suggested, it makes the clean up really easy. Very little smoke escapes from the pan, but you may want to open up some windows and disconnect your smoke alarm if it's sensitive (like ours!) If you're cooking for more than 3-4 people, you might want to purchase more than one smoker. One holds about four medium chicken breasts and about four fish filets and probably two steaks. I've ordered another one so I can smoke vegetables and meat at the same time. This little $39.95 smoker has replaced our $700.00 gas grill !!!

I was able to make the best smoked salmon and catfish we ever had at home. Spare ribs came out excellent. I LOVE MY SMOKER!!!

So far I have tried cooking boneless chicken breasts and a bone-in turkey breast (with the help of aluminum foil as a cover). The smoky taste was a little milder in the turkey breast than I would have liked, but perhaps using more chips would help fix that. Both the chicken and the turkey came out succulent, moist and tender, but they did not brown at all.

The lack of browning is the only negative I have found thus far in using the smoker; I 'll experiment with pre-browning the chicken breasts next time, or plan to use in a recipe where it doesn't matter.

I found the smoker to be very easy to use, and I really like the idea of cooking without any added fat.

Awesome stovetop smoker

I was skeptical, but this is an excellent smoker. First thing made was smoked salmon. Worked great. Immediately bought some additional
smoking woods. A lot of smoke recipes on the web. Only problem,
and it natural, is the smoke goes everywhere. A shroud might not be a
additional product.

Great for Inside Cooking

Product is top quality - great for inside cooking on stovetop - Poultry and pork had a great smokey flavor and meat was tender. Easy technique for the non-cook too! Looking forward to trying more types of meat or seafood.
