The-SMoking-GunI recently got hooked on those cooking shows on TV, It started with Hells Kitchen, then I went on to Top chef. When I was watching Top Chef, there was a chef that was using a item that I would like to have. The chef’s name was Richard, the item was a little handheld electric smoker.

One evening I went on a massive web search looking for the item he had and I think I found it, or something close to it. Its made by Poly science and its called The Smoking Gun. The concept is pretty simple. You put a small piece of your favorite smoking wood in a little bowl and light it, then there’s a tube that will pump the smoke onto whatever food you are trying to smoke. The way Richard used it on the show is putting a piece of fish or meat in a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap then putting the tube from the Smoking Gun under the plastic so that the smoke will flow into the bowl. Then let the bowl sit, covered with the smoke flavoring the food.

The bad thing is that I still haven’t found anywhere to buy this product online but I think you can make a phonecall at this site and have one sent to you. It cost $49.99
