Smoking

You can smoke cold or hot. With the first variant, the temperature does not exceed 25 degrees Celsius and the food is therefore not cooked. This is widely used for, for example, smoking salmon. When smoking hot, you cook the food, at about 90-100 degrees Celsius. Ideal for smoked pork belly, smoked chicken or pulled pork!
