i think it was a tray server like they use in a hospital when they bring the trays to you. really holds the heat good.

If you want to use that nice smoker for cold smoking bacon , sausage or cheese you will need to use an external smoke source. let me know and i'll give you the plans for one that works.

thanks. i rigged up a external fire box type thing from an old 15lb propane bottle, but haven't tried it out yet. just don't seem to have time during the summer and i really need to learn more about cold smoking.

I tried the smoke daddy and ended up giving it away after using the AmazeN pellet tray. does not require the cleaning that the smoke daddy does. simple tray that you fill with pellets and place in smoker for 8 - 10 hrs of smoke.
for cold smoking in a smoke house you need 1 metal mail box 4 feet of flexable dryer vent pipe and 2 of the AmazeN pellet trays. connect the vent pipe to a hole cut low in one side of your smoke house . cut hole in the back of the mail box and connect the other end of the flex pipe. set the mail box on the ground. open the door and light the pellets in each tray and slide both of them into the mail box. The draft will pull the smoke up through yor smoke house. when not in use you can just close the mail box to keep the bugs and critters out.
You can use this same set up when hot smoking and just put a heat source in the smoke house.
