4 Steps to Easy Indoor Smoker Cooking
What is Smoker Cooking?
Smoker Cooking is a method of dry roasting meats with a slight infusion of natural hardwood smoke. Smoking adds
tremendous aromatic flavor to foods, yet the smoking process has the unique characteristic of releasing fats from foods.
Foods are heartily flavorful while naturally released of excess fats.
Is Smoker Cooking Practical for Indoor Use?
VillaWare’s Hand-Cast Indoor Smoker-Cooker is a fast, clean and healthy way to prepare some of the most delicious
meats and foods that you’ve ever tasted!
Fa s t
Just place food in the Smoker-Cooker, turn on the stovetop heat, and you’ll soon have a completed meal. No need to
attend the foods or turn foods. No burning of foods. Leave the lid on, and let it cook on its own.
Clean
Just a couple of teaspoons of fine ground smoking chips is all you need for this wonderful flavor. No billows of smoke.
You can’t even see the smoke. If fact, did you know there is less smoke created from smoker-cooking than in grilling a
steak in an open pan? Don’t think “smokehouse” for VillaWare’s indoor smoker cooking. It is really just a hint of a
flavor and fragrance that no spice or any other cooking method can produce.
Healthy
First, smoker cooking is from all natural hardwood. It is not “liquid smoke” which is an artificial additive to many processed
“smoked” foods. Second, there is a unique characteristic that most people do not understand: the smoke cooking process
has the tendency to cause excess fats and oils to be naturally released from the meat. As smoke infuses the meat, excess fat
naturally drips out! People like grilling because it burns off fat, however grilling can produce unhealthy burning of the meat
surface. With smoking, there is no burning, just incredibly delicious pork, chicken, salmon, vegetables, etc.

to Smoker-Pan bottom.
Just 1-2 teaspoons is
typically enough.

caught in the drip-pan above.
