I got one of these to automate my smoking process.

As a quick set up, I mounted mine on a smoker/grill I already had that got little use.

Now it is my smoker for cold smoking Salmon and Chicken breasts.

It did get sticky once so far, and I had to take it apart and clean it up to make it work properly again.

If not for that, I would have given it 5 stars.

I got a large package of my favorite, Hickory, wood pucks for my runs with it.Bradley Hickory Bisquettes 120 pack

It goes 20 minutes and feeds a new disk onto the burner. I have a large pan that was a part of the original smoker/grill that catches the used puck so they can finish smoldering, if anything is left.

I find it very easy to load it for a nice 8 hour run and just look out now and then to see the smoke wafting away that tells me it's working.

The salmon I smoke in it comes out delicious!

I use the frozen salmon portions we get at our local Costco. They are flash frozen Atlantic salmon and individually sealed in vacuum packed plastic.

I've smoked cod, and yellowtail, as well.

The Cod I made some Smoked Fish Dip for a Family gathering at my Baby Sis' house and it got rave reviews. So did the 2 pounds of Smoked Almonds I did at the same time in the smoker.

(My "dip" came out more like a "Pate" though. But still, they loved it!)

So easy with the Bradley smoke generator!

I've had or built my own smokers for 40+ years, but this smoke generator is the cats meow.

It worked great for about 20 hours usage, then it stopped advancing the pucks automatically.

Pressing the manual button ejects a puck just fine.

I took it apart and inside everything is clean and all wiring is connected.

Edit: I learned from digging through bradley forums that there is a fix which involves 1) waiting for 20 minutes until the puck starts to automatically advance and 2) unplug the smoker, then plug it back in. This happens because an electrical spike can cause the motor direction to become reversed. Bradley support says the smoker will work fine in either direction, but tons of customer posts say it does not. Leaving 1 star as they won't acknowledge or offer a fixed version of the unit.

Product works perfect. Smoking BBQ is done low and slow! if the plastic melts your cooking to hot! I got it out of the box cut a 5" hole in the side of my Pig Cooker and was ready to go. An hour later I loaded my Cooker/Smoker up with 3 pork shoulders, 2 beef briskets, and a ham. Over the next 17 hours all I had to worry about was keeping my burner at 250,and didn't look twice at the Bradley. It works like a charm!

Honest reviews on Bradley Smoke Generator with Adapter

Works great got it for a gift from my wife. Love it works great to cold smoke and is a nice addition to a smoker.

I use it with my propane smoker fill the wood tray with chunks start it with propane and burn wood. Then fire up the bradley for extra smoke. Works great and if i use the propane for heat i can do what ever around the house and not have to worry about running out of smoke. This way if i want to i can set the propane and turn on the Bradley and basically forget it. Was a great way to full automate my cooking process. Great for the weekend smoker or guy like me who love to smoke meat but doesnt have the time anymore to tend a traditional smoker.

Everything works as advertised. The install instructions were very clear and the unit works better than expected. In fact, all our sourdough buddies thought this was a crazy idea, until the first batches of smoked salmon came out of the smoke house! Now they are all asking if they can use it. FYI, it does seem to add about 20 degrees to the smokehouse in relation to outdoor temp, but for what I'm doing with it that's just about perfect.
