Smoky Jo's Photo Gallery - 2008

 

What fun we had in 2008!  We ran over 20 courses, met some really terrific people and ate loads of yummy smoked food - so thank you to everyone who came on a course.  Here are a few photos from some of those courses - I hope they bring back some great memories.

Have a look at some of the great home smokers that people have designed and built after their time at Smoky jo's

Did you see Smoky Jo's on BBC The One Show

The One Show did a feature on Smoky Jo's on January 13th 2009.
