Smoking is way of cooking food using steam to slowly cook food or tenderize meat. It is usually done on meats and fish. In the old days, it simply involved burning several pieces of wood. Food is placed in pots or other enclosed containers and brought near the heat for food to cook.

However, smoking can be quite a tedious process, especially if one will do in the rudimentary way. The idea of gathering up woods and burning it is such a hassle and takes up a lot of time. Not to mention that it is also a dirty work.
