    Generation 1 40 inch Masterbuilt Smokers Available

    I was thinking about buying one of these electric smokers. What are the differences between the Gen 1 and 2's?

    M7's build thread. Reverse Flow trailer mounted with storage compartments.

    My local hardware store sells it but they wanted $32 for a 24"X24" sheet...the steel shop only wanted $57 for a 4'X8' sheet. Got any friends in the metal fab business?

    JK...it's called expanded metal. You can get it in different size holes as well. Most people make their charcoal basket out of 3/4" 9 gauge. For a cooking grate you could use a lighter gauge if you want, like a 11 or 13 gauge.

    fresh meat

    Search on the forum for Chargriller mods. I would send you a pic but I just got done sealing my gasket in place with the high temp silicone and it is curing so I don't want to open the lid. But I will post pictures of it when I get it finished.
