This week, our favorite YouTube video on smoking and grilling is provided by a passionate BBQ tinkerer, exploring whether a DIY “fake” Kamado-style offset smoker can hold its own against the real thing — especially when cold-smoking cheese.
Prepare for side-by-side testing, tips on airflow adjustments, and unexpected surprises during the smoke-off.
At BBQ Tech, we enjoy testing out new recipes. In the same way that we don’t gatekeep, it’s great to see everyone from families to pitmasters worldwide sharing cooking techniques and flavor combinations — and this includes this insightful breakdown of homemade rigs versus shop-bought, complete with build notes, temperature control hacks, and cheese-smoking results.
