Old Fire Pit
Here are some pictures of an old fire pit my dad made in 1942. It has been sitting without use since the mid 60's. I decided to revitalize the old pit into a smoke house. Although it sent me way over budget, I decided to construct it in my dad's memory.
I thought the pictures may give someone some ideas as to construction, and also someone might see some mistakes that I have made. Please feel free to post any suggestions on construction.
Thanks Dennis

Now that is how you make the old manb proud there dennis for sure. I like it alot and I bet it will crank ouot some really good bacon and sausage for sure too.
 
Thanks All for the kind words. I need to get some up to date pictures of the inside, as it is now well broken in and black with some hard smoke. I have done 6 sausage smokes, 3 poultry/ham smokes, and 3 snack stick smokes, oh yea I almost forgot Ive also done 2 bacon smokes. All turned out just a pinch short of super fantastic.
