I've considered buying a traditional smoker before, but the thought of camping out in my backyard to keep my food's temperature consistent for countless hours has ultimately deterred me. For me to finally invest a smoker, it'd have to be self-sufficient and hassle-free — being able to use it indoors all year round would be nice, too.
The $999 GE Smart Indoor Smoker promises all those perks, packed into a unit that can fit on your countertop. While the hefty appliance is certainly not comparable in size to average coffee makers or toaster ovens, it's the "world's first" indoor smoker featuring an active smoke filtration system that turns wood smoke into flavorful warm cooking air.
