Don't make the mistake of thinking that summertime barbecue season means grilling only. It's also the perfect time to hook up the electric smoker. Sure, smoking may not be Kitchen Skills: 101 knowledge, but with the right tools, it's not nearly as complicated as you may think—and it's certainly an excellent way to add complexity and flavor to any meal. If you're new to using electric smokers, we have plenty of guides, including everything you need to know for smoking meat and the best meats to smoke. But, smokers aren't just for meat—they can be used for almost any ingredient, from corn (case in point, this smoked corn on the cob) to salmon (smoked and cured salmon with orange zest, anyone?).
To get you going, we've rounded up the best electric smokers on the market. And, make sure to also check out our picks for the best meat thermometers and the best wood chips for smoking meat.

Now, let's get smoking.
