Camerons Original Stovetop Smoker, Oak, Apple, Hickory Wood Chips & Recipes

So I rarely write reviews so soon, but this product deserves it! It delivers on promise. And I say that as a owner of two "normal" smokers - a Trager and an Off-set smoker. This little stovetop absolutely delivers delicious results. I just used it to smoke a couple of Surf Perch, using Cameron's Oak chips and man - the flavor was amazing. Thorough and even. super easy to use. I used the tip someone in here said and used tin foil for the drip tray and cleaning this thing was incredibly easy. Can't wait to take this on a fishing/camping trip! Great product!

I own a Nordic stove top dome smoker Nordic Ware 365 Indoor/Outdoor Kettle Smoker and really love it for whole chickens and large pork shoulders, but it is too small for 4 chops, corn on the cob and other large meals. This smoker is fabulous! Although the info says it is 11x15 inches, those are the exterior dimensions. The interior cooking surface (food tray) is approximately 8 1/2 x 12. That is a good amount of room for most everything though. My learning curve from the Nordic taught me to line both the bottom pan and the drip tray in foil. I've also learned to put the smoking chips around the edges of the bottom pan, so the smoke can get up to the food. There is only a small space around the edges of the drip tray that allow the smoke to rise up from below. Salmon only took 12 minutes to cook, instead of the longer time suggested in the recipe book so watch your food carefully and check on it. I have a nice list now, of cooking times. I ordered a perforated quarter sheet pan Crestware 9 by 13 by 1-Inch Perorated Quarter Sheet Pan to use for delicate fish, loose corn, and other things that may fall through the grid of the food tray. Being 9 x 13 it should fit. I will update in a couple of days when the pan gets here. UPDATE: That perforated quarter sheet pan did not fit due to the rounded edges of the smoker. It's a really nice pan, and I will use it for pizza instead. I have purchased some foil grilling sheets with perforations that I cut to fit. They work perfectly and allow the smoke to penetrate the food. Foil pie pans and small (5x7) drip pans also work great with corn and smaller size vegetables.

In November of 2023, I ordered 4 of these Cameron Smoker Gift Box Sets here on Amazon as Christmas presents while they were on a huge sale. Now, 3 months later, I still have not received my shipment. I rated the Smoker product because I had been gifted one Christmas a year ago and love how quickly and easily you can get a nicely smoked product using the simple but effective Cameron Stovetop Smoker. The product is great but this seller is not and does not follow through. This is such a great product, that I can only suspect that these sellers are not directly tied to the Cameron company. There is no communication effort from them after several attempts to contact them through Amazon. I have finally requested that they reship my order but no response. Out of all of my dealings with Amazon over the years, this is the first really bad experience with a less-than-honorable seller. Based on what I have experienced with these guys, I do not believe the seller intends to honor or fulfill this purchase. If these folks actually are the Cameron's Smoker Company, I am so very disappointed.

I first tried this smoker in my electric oven but couldn't get it to smoke. I followed the one-step oven instructions in the manual but the wood chips looked unused after the full cooking time. But then I tried it on my stovetop on medium heat and it worked perfectly! I smoked 6 small chicken breasts in 20 minutes... So tender and juicy. It took me 5 minutes to clean and dry the smoker. Then I smoked 5 small salmon pieces in 10 minutes. My husband loved them and kept saying how good it was. It was all so quick and easy and our place smelled AMAZING. Plus no smoke leaked out. I covered the top tightly with aluminum foil before sliding the lid on. I didn't even need to use the stove exhaust fan. I can't wait to use this smoker again! ~Art's wife

I’ve used my smoker many times for fish and chicken, etc. This one , I purchased for a friend so they can enjoy the great smoked flavors. I bought all the different types of chips.

This is one of the best kitchenware items I have ever purchased. Don't be fooled by the low price and lack of bells and whistles. It may look rinky-dink, but this stovetop smoker rocks and your house smells great! No smoke in the air - it's contained in the smoker by the top - and you can smoke almost anything. I particularly like to smoke chicken thighs for chicken chili. I have even used it to smoke maple syrup in stainless steel cups - a fabulous addition to drinks! Cleans up easily with soap and water. Do read the brief instructions included. Highly recomended!!

This is a well made smoker would thoroughly recommend although a little expensive for what essentially is a steel box hence only 4 stars

I love this thing use it all the time smoke things inside the house in about an hour much cheaper and better than a big-time smoker for one or two people

Great for smoking fish. Can also be used as a stove top oven. Expecting many years service, made from quality stainless steel, easy to clean in dishwasher. Smoke seepage is minimal.

The smoker arrived bent although the packaging was not damaged so it was obviously bent before packing. I straightened it rather than sending it back as cosmetics are not important in this case and I needed to use it. I have used Cameron smokers before so I know they work well but for something pressed from stainless steel and made in China, over £100 is far too expensive. I should send it back but I needed it for a dinner party so it has now been used.

The smoker arrived in perfect condition. I washed and used it to smoke sausages right away. The amount of wood I used (as instructed) was such a small amount compared to the total 3 tubs that it comes with (used maybe 1% of the total wood that it comes with it). The smoke did not billow out too much and was manageable with my stove fan and with a window slightly open. I followed the sausage recipe that was in the recipe booklet. Turned out great. Will use many times during the winter. The instructions also say that you can use it on a BBQ grill or on hot coals when camping. Great value for the price, especially if you don't own or want to buy a whole outdoor smoker.
