I can offer that if you're interested. We built a couple of different smokers throughout the years.

Check out Cabela's or Bass Pro Shops online, or even Midway, Midsouth, et al, for their books on smoking and preserving meat.<br /><br />I have a rather large smoker (separate firepit, big upright cabinet, wheels, etc) on the back decks and it is one of my most prized possessions.<br /><br />However, I've never tried to smoke meat in order to keep it edible for upcoming months.<br /><br />2. Check out a few of the "survivalist" websites and forums. There are some wackjobs out there, but there are also a lot of common sense forums and websites for people who aren't paranoid, but rather who want to simply prepare themselves for upcoming hard times.<br /><br />That does not necessarily translate into a SHTF scenario either. Some folks know their jobs are coming to an end--maybe they're contract labor and the contract/job is almost done. Others may be getting ready to retire early, but still have several years before they can dip into their IRAs. Etc etc.<br /><br />Oh, and let me add a third. . .<br /><br />3. Hunting shops and hunting discussion forums.<br /><br />Good luck, and let us know what you find.<br /><br />--AOAAn Ordinary Americanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17848364015817985349noreply@blogger.com
