Save 10% on the combined value of these items.

The recipe booklet includes recipes for bacon, pancetta, smoked salmon, duck breast, cheeses, nuts & seeds and smoked aioli together with useful cold smoking tips and techniques and provides a useful launch pad into the rich world of artisan cold smoking to help you develop your own projects. The booklet also includes various hot smoking recipes.

The ProQ Cold Smoking Cabinet can be used to dry and hang foods as well as cold smoke. Made from weather resistant galvanised steel with a magnetic locking door, the cabinet has 3 removable stainless steel racks. Redesigned in Autumn 2024, this latest version ncludes a removable drip tray for easier cleaning and comes flat packed to reduce shipping damages.

It is designed to work with the stainless steel ProQ Cold Smoke Generator, also supplied with your set, which slots into a customised housing in the base. For use outdoors, the cabinet is constructed in weather resistant galvanised steel which is also lightweight and durable. Three easy to clean stainless steel racks are supplied giving lots of room for a variety of cold smoking projects. Food can be placed on or hung from the racks (hooks not supplied) and there are 6 shelf positionings in the cabinet to accommodate different sized foods. Ventilation is through the bottom front flap opening to the generator housing and then out of the top through two sizeable vents between the top and back panels.

Cold smoking relies on the ability to create cooled flavourful smoke, which is exactly what the ProQ Cold Smoke Generator does. The mesh maze design promotes a flame-free prolonged smouldering and just one fill with a fine wood dust will provide up to 10 hours of smoke generation.

It’s important to use the right consistency of wood dust for optimum performance with your cold smoke generator, so we’ve include two 500g packs of our Hot Smoked pure, fine smoking dust, in Oak for a strong smoke and in Beech for something a little more subtle.

Finally, most meats and fish need to be stablised or cured prior to cold smoking, particularly if they will ultimately be eaten raw as in the case of smoked salmon, so included with your set is a 1kg pack of Curing Salts, a ready-mix salt cure which contains just the right levels of curing agents (1.2% in total) to ensure the elimination of residual bacteria. For use at a rate of 60g per 1kg of meat or fish, the cure will give you plenty for numerous cold smoking projects. Add your own mix of ground or cracked herbs and spices for a bespoke take on curing.

Cold smoking sometimes gets the rap of being a little technical or complicated, but with this set you’ll be surprised how easy it is to cold smoke your own salmon, bacon and cheeses and experiment with an even wider repertoire of cold smoked projects, such as salts, oils, nuts, garlic etc.
