Well my canadian bacon is coming out of marinade after 9 days in. Going on smoker Saturday morning. Hope to have pics if I can figure out how to upload to forum. My outhouse not quite finished. Have new plans for it after ground thaws.
 
Ok people. I've been away longer than wanted. I'm am starting my smokehouse build tomorrow. I've gotten a load of cinder block fir my foundations for the outhouse and Firefox/grill. I will be lining inside of smokehouse side with old red chimney brick so I can hot smoke. I have a 4" stainless tube 5' long. I was wondering if I should make it so I could smoke couple hrs first then couple the tube to let all smoke out then fire up fire box and let tube be a heat soure for cooking or just let it smoke and maintain my temp whole time. Just don't want too much smoke.
 
Good morning and welcome, be waiting to see your build take shape. Good luck

Ive got it built. Real red neck and it works.
Of all things hot dogs were the first meat to cook on it. Lol. Made a chuck roast and a sirloin roast on it today. Started at 9am and wrapped and in cooler at 3:30. I'll get a pic of them before slicing. Potatoes on there now. Tonight brisket for an all nite smoke. Can't wait.

Sounds like you've been busy with the build and smoking already. Never would have thought of using an outhouse but great idea. Can't wait to see pics of it. Good luck on all your smokes and Keep smoking LOW AND SLOW.
