Finally finished my BBQ/Oven/Smoker contraption!
I designed myself it as a multi purpose BBQ / smoker / wood fired oven. I did some of the work myself (brickies labourer) and had a local blacksmith make up the doors and stainless fabricator make up the plates and grills.
You can change how it works by swapping over the rear grill to hot plate and using the chimney vent. There are two chimneys running one behind the other with a stainless plate separating them.
BBQ/Grill mode uses grill instead of plate at back. Can also use as ‘direct’ hot smoker for chicken on rotisserie in the oven.
‘Indirect’ smoker mode is hot plate in back and flap open to direct the smoke into the oven chamber.
Oven mode is hot plate in back and flap closed to make the smoke run out the back chimney.
Ill also be able to use the front of the firebox to cook bread / pizza on the hot firebricks and have a gas burner on the left.
This is of course all theory until I use it a few times! First fire up had it sitting on 235f perfectly! I have never smoked anything before so it's the start of a long journey!
