I worry about a bear being attracted by the meaty and fishy smell of my smoker and tearing it open to get at what smells so good. So I do my smoking on an elevated deck, and when I'm done I wheel my smoker into my garage on a handcart. I'd like to build a big smoker, but worry about attracting bears. Have any of you ever had a bear break into your smoker? Do you have any suggestions about how to protect a smokehouse against bears?
