12 DIY Smokehouses For Cooking And Preserving Food

Once upon a time every home had a DIY smokehouse in the backyard. The homemade smokehouse was used as a meat smoker and food smoker to preserve the food raised on the homestead. People got away from the DIY smoker and began to use smaller, ready-made BBQ grills and smokers because they were more convenient and portable for a upward mobile society.The pendulum is now swinging back and the trend for building a smokehouse is in full swing. A BBQ smokehouse erected in your own back yard allows you to have control over food flavor, additives and preservation method by using either the hot smoker or cold smoker method.
