Bradley sells a smoke generator with adapter, so you can convert about
any grill into a cold smoker. http://tinyurl.com/2leygk

IMHO, it's a great solution for someone who can do some metal work to
cut an opening in the hood of a grill. The smoke generator slips over a
couple screw heads and can be removed instantly for traditional cooking
with gas or charcoal. If I was doing it to my present gas grill, I
would fabricate a piece of sheet metal to just cover the opening in the
hood when not using the smoke generator.
