I remember Alton Brown making two separate homemade smokers on the cheap in good eats. First one was essentially a hot plate, aluminum pie plate, sawdust, under a big cardboard box. Other one was in a junkyard and a little more involved, but still pretty simple.

Seems like something fun to try though.

I’ll venture to opine that a plastic bag full of manufactured "smoke pellets", a metal can with welds on it, and a new soldering iron unapproved for food use is maybe not as simple as plain old water-soaked chips and fire, and probably a bit more hazardous.

I’d be careful with a soldering iron unapproved for food use, especially new. It could be vaporizing mercury and/or other hazardous compounds that may end up in your food.

Yeah, plus I like to use the best possible tools for the best end product. I still haven’t found my ideal way to cold smoke... but I just saw this today and am thinking about ordering or making one...
