smokehouses
Flavor-infusing preservation sheds
Smokehouses are buildings or chambers where meat or fish is cured by exposure to smoke.
The slow process preserves food and imparts distinctive flavor.
Traditional smokehouses are small wooden structures; modern commercial operations use large industrial facilities.
The salmon came from local smokehouses.
