    WTB used cabinet smoker

    Searching for a used cabinet smoker.  Backwoods party, spicewine, etc.. maybe even a clone build depending.  In memphis TN area.  Just looking for a good condition smoker at a good price for backyard cooking, doesnt have to have all the bells and whistles.

    Want to build a smoker - Is this good to start out with?

    I saw those the other day, very nice.  Although not a ton of pics on their site get ideas from.  Still debating, but really thinking I should buy it.

    Cool.  That is what I am struggling with, where/how would I mount the firebox.  Thats why I was thinking backwoods after hearing from others and poking around.  Not sure if it should be a single door, double door?  Door open side to side, raise up, that kind of stuff.

    Smoker build - Is this good to start with?

    Nice Ribwizzard, I would love to see some pics of that, do you have some?  I was afraid 2-1/2' deep may be to deep, but guess not.  I was thinking it would make a good backwoods clone if nothing else, but a firebox would be fun, I like fire

    Thanks for the response.  I have not bought this yet, I am trying to decide if I should.   I should have mentioned my preference is an offset firebox so I can burn wood.  I have seen some of the cabinet style smokers with trays and do like them.  I just havent found a lot of pictures of them...

    Hey all, new here.  I am not new to cooking, but new to building a smoker for sure.

Anyway, just wanted yalls...
