Abstract
The present invention is directed to a smoker device for smoking and cooking food that has improved smoke circulation in the smoking chamber, less smoke loss from the areas outside of the exhaust pipe and is easier to clean than existing technologies.
Claims20
A smoker device for smoking or cooking food comprising:
- a smoking chamber divided into a first sub-chamber oriented at least partially below a second sub-chamber;
- an exhaust pipe located within the first sub-chamber and above a firepot in the first sub-chamber, the exhaust pipe having at least one inlet and an outer end extending out of the smoking chamber;
- and
- an exhaust stack connected to the outer end of the exhaust pipe and extending upward to vent hot air and smoke from the smoking chamber;
- and
- whereby the heating of the air and smoke in the exhaust pipe creates a draw of air and smoke within the smoking chamber through the at least one inlet and up the exhaust stack and further creates a circular convection current of air and smoke within the smoking chamber.
3 more elements
A smoker device comprising:
- a smoking chamber comprising a first sub-chamber configured to house a firepot and an exhaust pipe and a second sub-chamber housing a cooking surface;
- wherein the temperature inside the first sub-chamber is the highest temperature in the smoking device and wherein the pressure inside the smoking chamber is equal to or lower than the pressure outside the smoking chamber to draw smoke through the smoker device.
A smoker device comprising:
- a smoking chamber comprising a first sub-chamber configured to house a firepot and having an exhaust pipe located within it and a second sub-chamber having a cooking surface located within it;
- wherein the pressure inside the smoking chamber is equal to or lower than the pressure outside the smoking chamber to draw smoke through the smoker device.
A smoker device comprising:
- a smoking chamber;
- a heat source located within the smoking chamber;
- an exhaust pipe for venting exhaust gases from inside the smoking chamber and that is located within the smoking chamber and above the heat source,
- whereby the heat source heats the exhaust gases in the exhaust pipe to create or increase the draft in the exhaust pipe.
1 more element
A heating device wherein heat is generated by the burning of pellets or other combustible fuel comprising:
- a heating chamber;
- and
- a hopper assembly that houses the pellets or other combustible fuel, wherein the hopper assembly is slidably detachable from the heating chamber.
A smoker device comprising:
- a smoking chamber containing a sub-chamber;
- a firepot within the sub-chamber;
- an exhaust pipe with at least one inlet, the exhaust pipe located above the firepot, whereby the firepot reheats the air and smoke within the exhaust pipe and, thereby, increases the draw in the smoking chamber.
