When your moniker is Smoky Jo, readers keen to turn trout into a taste sensation can be confident they have picked up the right book. Jo Hampson and Georgina Perkins guide the reader through this art (definitely an art, rather than a science), from the mechanics of smoking and how to smoke food (starting with brining and basics) to types of smoker. The list of herbs and spices to use with different meats is useful, as is the smoking guide for different foods. It is startling to realise it s not just the usual suspects that make for the tastiest results. You can attend a smoking course with Smoky Jo in Cumbria, if you can snag a place. If not, this book is almost as good as having her beside you. — Alexandrea Henton, Country Estate,

The authors, Jo and Georgina, with their very wide and deep experience, are probably the most knowledgeable food-smoking experts in the UK. You only need to buy one guide to smoking your own food and this is it. — Clive Husselbury, Director, CookEquip Ltd
