Howdy all,
Getting ready to start this build here. The tank is 275 gallon fuel oil tank that is in great shape. This will be mounted on an Harbor Freight Trailer.
I have been renting pig roasters in the past for catering gigs and I don't like them..IE: Roasters and not smokers. I want to smoke my pigs low and slow. Most of the pigs I do are up around 180 - 200lb er's. My bottom rack will be built to handle this weight. Other racks will be built to handle brisket , and shoulders.
I have found the calculator for all the dimensions based on my CC size.
I am looking for imput from the guys who have been doing this awhile and have built their rigs for the "I wish I had done this that way " or "added this to it".
I like learning from others mistakes or their wish lists. I hope to gets lots of suggestions off the bat before I start making cuts in the tank. Please feel free to post drawings or pics of your ideas. They are very welcome here. I will start off with a pic of the tank.
Tank dimensions: 60.5" Wide 44" Tall 27" deep
Tank orientation: Upright (44" tall)
5 racks
RF with FB at one end.
Hope this is enough to get some ideas going here.
Thanks for all the help in this...
