I have been thinking about this. I'll be out shopping tomorrow morning an will see if I can pick up a shit ton (industry technical standard) of charcoal. I have an electric smoker and a wood/charcoal offset smoker. I've got enough wood chips to smoke the meat I have.

We smoke a moderate amount of food over a few days. Vacuum seal, dated with package info, then freeze. This makes it easier for meals when no one feels like cooking. Plus, if the powers out and you're using a pellet or other type that needs power to run. There's no worries about food going bad. AND smoked meats have longer shelf life.

That's what we do. Vacuum sealed, double bagged and frozen game meat can be good for 5-10 years. Lean, low fat foods last a long time in a freezer @ 10-20F below zero.

Most pellet smokers only take a few hundred watts to run. You can usually run them off of a small power inverter.

I have an inverter I keep in the truck, along with a 50ft extension cord.

My truck has an inverter with 2 110 outlets if it came down to that.
