Well thanks to the internet and a site called

Austin National Smokers [/font]out of [font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][font=Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Brownsburg,[/font][/font][/font][/font] Indiana. from what i read online this company was doing great and then got out in front of itself before closing it's doors and left some people very unhappy when orders did not materialize and deposit did not get returned,. Here is the link to their old site
www.austinnationalsmokers.com, because it is archived, not all the photos are their , but I was able to find this unit and it had a price of about
$7,000 back in 2004. Here is the link,
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][color=cc0000]8' Rotisserie Barbeque Pit Smoker[/color][/font] to the actual unit nice to see the whole unit is built out of 1/4 material.
Thank you all for the input I will post back after I do a test smoke in it today.

Never seen one. But it looks like a beast of a rig.
Yeah she is a beast. I will know more after my test smoke today.
Looks like it could be homemade. Hard to tell for sure. If one of the major manufactureres made it there name would be on it somewhere. Looks like a beast though. Do you cater? Do you need something that big or is it just whats available? Hard to put a value could be anywhere from 4 to 6 grand??
I bought a trailer rig last summer. My criteria was I wanted as much built onto the trailer as possible. I didn't wsant to pull a smoker and a whole pick up bed full of stuff to go with it.
Mine was buily by a fab guy down in Texas. It's a 24X60 with a warmer. Has two propane fryers built onto it for doing turkeys, sweet corn boils or whatever. Has a large prep table not just shelves but a prep table built onto it as well. A large wood bin and enough space to tie down 3 coolers. Also has storage underneath the prep table that is lockable and big enough to hold plastic bins with all my restaraunt pans and other utensils needed for cooking. I love this rig and don't know what else I could ask for. I have fed over 100 people off this rig easily.
Nice Rig because my dad fabricates I can add onto this. Thanks for the input.
Thats one helluva a rig 3montes! Fishwrestler...it looks similiar to a Cadillac Cooker. If you need that amount of space and have a place to park it, and can get it at the price you want, then go for it. I think you'll love the rotisserie setup, never heard anything bad about them.
Here is a look at Cadillac Cookers, they have a similiar setup with the rotisserie...
