Automatic Smoke Generator
The Bradley Smoker Original smoker has a very simple to use automatic smoke generator that allows the user to just put the bisquettes in place and let it work, you won’t need to continually tend to the smoker, do temperature checks, or replace wood. The automatic advancement technology will feed a new bisquette into the burner after twenty minutes, which allows for perfect smoke usage for the prescribed period of time without interference or user intervention. This process gives you a pure smoked flavor every time. Your recipes will have the right amount of smoke so the taste is consistent, over and over again. Load eight hours of bisquettes and go do whatever else you have to do.
