Update: Here's what it looks like after 3, 5×8 trays of pecan pellets. I added a single overlapped snake of B&B briquettes & lit one end, I'm curious if it'll stay lit/chain as intended. I elevated the pellet tray on a burned out steel can to keep it off the coals. My goal is to try and raise the temp just enough so I'm not smoking frozen meat. I think it's looking decent so far! I'll check it in an hour or so to see how it's going.

I have been wondering about how to cold smoke in the egg, this is an interesting approach. I would find comparably sized lumps though
I don’t remember where, but years ago I saw where a guy ducted the chimney of a minimax into the intake of his large egg for cold smoking. I don’t have a spare egg but it’s an idea for those that want cold smoke.
What about just lighting a smoker tube of pellets with a torch?
Huh. I thought you were cold-smoking cheese….
Appreciate you sharing your setup. It makes sense how you were doing it now
Always fun playing with the egg, well done. Hoping for the best with your experiment!
I have the smoke daddy. It does a good job and would recommend for cold smoking. Very easy to setup.
am not try to be a smartass, honest question – what does the chimey do?
I like the red bling.
There are so many crimes being committed here. I’m gagged.
Take a peek at these links for some cold smoking ideas on an Egg. From one of the saints of the charcoal cooking, I present the Naked Whiz.
