Old oven to hot smoker

Post by dilwad »

Got an offer of an old electric oven that has a griller bit in the top and I'm thinking:
- flip the whole thing upside down
- cut slits / drill holes between the oven and griller compartments
- use the griller element to make smoke

The gf is worried that it will start a fire or use too much electricity. I'm not sure if the griller element will be too hot. It won't be the biggest smoker but the inbuilt racks will do nicely.
