rauchkammer
A room in a garret in a Pennsylvania Dutch colonial house that was set aside for the curing of meat. An opening in the chimney stack that passed through this space allowed smoke to enter the garret, and the meats to be cured were hung from hooks attached to the underside of the roof framing.
