Smoking is one of the oldest ways of preparing perishable food for future use. Unfortunately, lately some manufacturers have passed off fish impregnated with "liquid smoke" - a chemical solution that gives it color and smell as smoked products. In order not to doubt the quality of the products, it is better to smoke them yourself, especially since there is nothing difficult in making a smokehouse.

- - a large tin pot
- - sheet of tin
- - hacksaw for metal
- - drill
- - drill
- - metal corner

Instructions
Step 1
To make a smokehouse, you will need a large galvanized pan, previously they were also called boils. As a last resort, you can use a large metal bucket with a lid. The main thing is that the vessel is not enameled.
Step 2
Cut a hole 40 cm long and 25 cm high at the bottom of the pot, 10 cm from the bottom.
Step 3
From the sheet of tin that was saved, make a door with a hole 5 cm larger than the resulting hole. Fasten the door on the left with two hinges, on the right, make a tightly pressing latch.
Step 4
Using 4 metal corners at the height of the door inside the pot, screw the metal plate for sawdust. Attach 4 more corners inside the pan at a distance of 20 cm from the lid, on which you will lay the grill for smoking.
