Bradley Smoker

For those interested in a new way to smoke foods, I received this newsrelease today and thought I'd pass it on. It includes a url for the company's products.

Why the Bradley is the world's best barbecue food smoker
 
Bradley's revolutionary digital smokers allow home cooks to slow smoke-cook food like a BBQ competitor without the preparation, mess, and constant monitoring.  Just put in the food, set temperature, time, smoke, all in about one minute and enjoy your day.  It's that easy!
 
A True Green Smoker:  Unlike wood and/or briquette smokers which require a long and hot warm up, the clean electric Bradley warms up quickly and cleanly.  Other ceramic and steel constructed wood and charcoal smokers smoke and pollute the atmosphere during their entire time cooking time and their smoke is not fresh smoke (more to follow).  The Bradley is the only genuine green grill!
 
How Does It Work?  The smoke generator unit feeds a low cost hockey puck sized wood chipped disk called a Bisquette onto the electric toasting plate every 20-minutes-automatically-you decide how much smoke you want.  Once toasting (smoking) is completed for that old bisquette it is automatically disposed into a water-filled bowl and a new fresh bisquette replaces it.  Uniquely, the Bradley allows home cooks to mix all types of wood flavors, an impossibility with other smokers.
 
It Gets Better! Now you set the smoke time, temperature and cooking time. Once set, the Bradley does all the work and unlike other smokers, you don't have to monitor anything while it cooks.
 
The Secret of Smoke Cooking:  Bradley Smokers are unique in that they generate fresh smoke.  Traditional wood burning smokers smoke the entire time they are cooking because the wood is also their heating fuel. This overheated burned wood produces soot, vapors, tars, resins and even creosote and create a sour smoke and dried food phenomenon.  The Bradley means real clean smoke flavor.
 
Why Better yet?  Bradley Smokers toast the wood bisquettes below the char (burn) point creating incredibly thick rich flavor packed fresh smoke. Now anyone can create perfectly smoke-cooked food to his or her taste and then stop the smoke and continue the cooking until the food is ready.
 
Bradley's No-Fuss Wood Bisquettes are 100 % real wood and are NOT artificially flavored. They are very affordable since only 3-4 are necessary in a cookout representing only about $ .90 to $1.25!  
 
Real wood flavors: Apple, pecan, hickory, maple, mesquite, alder, cherry, oak, Bradley's Special Blend, and Jim Beam oak whisky barrel. Now you can mix and match the bisquettes to your taste rather than be stuck with one flavor as with other smokers that burn that particular wood for heat and smoke. The Bradley Bisquettes may even be placed on cooking grates of a regular gas or charcoal BBQ grill to impart smoke flavor to traditional hot grilled foods such as burgers, steaks, ribs, etc...

Bradley smokers are everything they're touted to be. I'm speaking from personal experience. Owning and using one for several years, I confidently serve all items prepared in the Bradley. Very consistent results. Their "hockey pucks" are available in many hardwood varieties to suit the particular finished product you are hoping for. I suggest getting one of their internal thermometers to more accurately achieve proper doneness.
Remember, these good people are our Canadian friends and some of their suggested recipes may not reflect our tastes. I seek additional recipes from many sources.
The Bradley will have your friends asking for more!

That's interesting. I'd heard of them, but I didn't really know much about them. I may just try that $99 one.

Michael, and others, my experience is with their "original". Can't speak concerning other models.

Nothing new about the Bradley's, one of the guys on a board that I used to frequent had one of the generators mounted in a smokehouse of his own design. That brings up the next point. Would you want to lock yourself into a proprietary dispensing system that uses their bisquettes or pellets like some other systems do? It may very well work great and is a good idea, but it's not like getting hold of some wood chips at Wallyworld or getting some wood and making your own. They own you once you buy into their system. You're not going to find Bisquettes in very many retail places...at least not around here.

I had A Bradley Smoker on my Father's Day Wish List.
Obviously, my children don't love me.
They've lived on my outdoor AND indoor cooking all their lives, (They're 40 & 50) and this the gratitude I get????
I hope it rains on their picnics & BBQ's!
 
Just Kidding. They're great kids

I sold Bradley Smokers a few years ago when they first came out.  

Very interesting technology.  I used to demo it by making jerky... delicious jerky!

Stopped selling them when my distributor lost the line and they were then available online from Bradley.

The only thing that I didn't like about them was that you are married to the company forever because you have to buy those bisquets from them.

They're like Gillette Razors. They give away the razors so you have to buy the blades from them! The money's in the blades, not the razors!
