UFO cold smoke generator bolts through the side and boom she's running. No heat but it is a long process 12 to 18 hrs or so!!

Brining the fish is the key. Heaps of good recipes on the nizzel but basically need enough salt in h2o to float a potato. Sea water is not salty enough. Can add soy sauce herbs and spices to taste.

Put in fridge over night at least then be sure to dry before smoking, very important.

End result bloody tasty. Have only done fish in it but my mate keeps talking about borrowing it and doing some ham

Wouldn’t be hard to add a little heat to that ether
A little cast iron gas ring from mitre10 with a small hole in the side to run the gas hose through
Or a single element electronic bench top stove
You don’t need alot of heat but it’s handy and safer to have some
120c will cook chicken over a few hours 70c is sweet for fish
