Bear attacks

[pmmpete]

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?
