[Sca-cooks] Bread Question from someone not on this list

[Susan Fox]

A smoker needs two things:  a heat source and damp wood chips for 
smoking.  If you don't put in the latter, you don't wind up with smoked 
food.  Bread, yes, brisket not so much.  ;-)

Small diversion:  some folks from the Barony of Calafia [San Diego, CA] 
brought a propane-fired smoker to Collegium and to Potrero War and 
demonstrated it.  Quite a good compromise for "city kids".  Best quickie 
treat:  smoked pecans in about one hour.  To which I say, happily, Nuts 
To You!

Cheers,
Selene Colfox, your cohort in backup beepery
