Anuka Electric Smoker

Wow I feel so lucky. This is my very first review I have ever done on Amazon but I felt I had too, I ordered one of these about seven years ago and paid seven times the amount I paid here, this smoker is fabulous, cooks my chicken, steaks and fish perfectly and taste exactly like it came straight off the out door pit, I love this smoker so much so I'm thinking about ordering another just for a backup.

The Anuka Electric Smoker was a bit of a surprise. In the photo, it looks a bit like a frying pan "gone bad." Taking it out of the box, it is quite something else. To be clear, the temperature listed is 375F. This would be too high for smoking and quickly harm many foods. However, this is the element temp, not the temp it reaches in the unit. In an hour, doing babyback ribs, two containers of wood dust, it oversmoked the meat but did little cooking.

Thus, one container, like the directions say, but finishing cooking in the oven, except perhaps fish, is the way to go.

The storage cover is very good. There may be units more advanced, with temp controls, this one has none but works just the same. Clean-up is easy and has to be done outdoors or the underside of the lid alone will give a delightful smokey aspect to any home.

I say..buy one...good gift item, easy to use, well built, reliable...and more useful to a professional than expected.

I saw this on QVC several years back and wanted it then, but did not have the $185 it cost at the time. I tried to find it about a year later and couldn't find it anywhere. I have a wonderful large electric Masterbuilt smoker, but I am a 1 person household.

I was so surprised when I did a search for this again a couple of weeks ago to find the product at all, much less this INCREDIBLE buy!

Every other place has the 'new' silver version and costs $199-$265. The blue one was what I saw on QVC.

I ordered it immediately. It arrived quickly. Last night I did my first 'smoke'. I had some bone-in chicken breasts and put 3 large and 2 smaller breasts on 1 rack. I used 1 1/2 'scoops' of my red oak wood chips. I set the timer for an hour, even the the manual/recipe book (very good) said I only needed 50 minutes, I tend to like things more 'done'. They came out beautiful with a great smoke flavor as if done in my large smoker. My temp probe died, so I couldn't check the temp. I'll order a new and then there won't be any questions. I can't wait to do hamburgers, sausage, asparagus, mac n cheese and more!

So simple, easy to use. Clean up a breeze. I threw the rack in the dishwasher and it came out great.

Order it while you can at this great price.

I only wish I could have used it indoors, but it's not recommended. It does start to 'vent' smoke within 5 minutes.
