Hey James; try honey next time. I did a tray of honey (large cookie sheet on the Big Joe) a while back and kept the heat down to 150 or less. I stirred the honey every 15 min or so for several hours. Even with the heat that low, the honey thickened up quite a bit, so I thinned it back down with apple cider vinegar. It's excellent on pulled pork! Your method of cold smoke would be perfect if you don't want to thin it out later. Thanks for the video! Love your channel!

I just made my first batch of smoked sausage. I used this video as my reference for the cold smoke at the end. You ought to try making sausage and doing some videos. Takes some time but the result was amazing. It’s yet another great way to use a Kamado Joe.

Could you use this tube to add smoke to a regular cook on the KJ by laying it on its side on deflector plates or does it need to be on an open grate?

you can add it, but it needs enough air that you don't get so much smoke you extinguish your main fire.... and you can't have to much heat as the pellets ignite and turn into a combustable fuel source

Great video. I really enjoy your channel. My source for smoked cheddar has gone away so I really want to try smoking it myself. You put it on the expander rack. Could I put it just on the main cooking grate since I won't be smoking water and bourbon at the same time as the cheese? Is that expander rack just to give you more surface area, or further separation from the smoking tube heat?

the smoke moves at a pretty lazy pace and tends to wander around the dome before escaping as there is no true heat pump action which is where with a real fire you get an air draw and 20x acceleration (claimed) with the SloRoller.
