My first  endeavor was cooking a whole hog.  It was a learning experience.  Practiced with chickens and tried suckling pigs later with much better results. 

I have cooked with charcoal, hickory and cherry.  The last lot of hickory is too old and just makes a horrible smokey, revolting creosote flavor.   quality of wood is important. 
 
after mastery of this brick pit, it produces much better smoke flavor than my pull-behind reverse flow smoker and is less recovery, clean-up time.  the brick pit burns slower.  Just the cement blocks themselves hold heat very well.   A reverse flow smoker uses wood much faster for less smoke flavor.  What I need is a trailer that pulls 100 cement blocks and accessories.  that would be neat.

I'm liking this idea much better than retro fitting my barrel [emoji]127996[/emoji]
What did you use for meat racks?
