M.B,
They sell those down here in the Greater Tampa BAY Area, also. Actually, if
one of our Japanese friends could see it, they would recognize it right
away. Back in the early 70's, I was stationed in Japan, and bought an number
5 sized KAMADO POT.
It was a loverly neon orange color, BUT did come in green also. It was lined
wiith fire-brick,and acted like a Dutch oven. A handful of coals could,and
did smoke a 12lb turkey. There was a tiny door at the bottom so that you
could take out the ashes{ alllllmost said haul...,but saved y'all from red
ears, dirty thoughts,etc.].
If you want the perfect smoker, then look at this Big Green egg. Since MY
KAMADO POT was borrowed for an indeffinite time period, during a military
move, my wife and I are looking into purchasing one shortly.
BTW: Have my Brinkman smoker (non-electric) going right now. Have some
abs[ bright red, and orangey yellow],scotch bonnets[jamaicans], a few red
pepper about 6-7" long w/ about 2 1/2" shoulders (??), a couple of freshly
picked serranos,and a few 7-8"long,narrow[about 1"wide] red peppers(They
curl at the ends,and are "wrinkly") doing a smoke dance. When all done, will
place in deydrator for about 8-10hrs. Then crush/chop/mangle untill fine
powder. Yes, Yes,yes!!
