    Cons of concrete smoker?

    The base are thick pavers from Home Depot. The dem. of the pit are 49" tall, 37 " deep and 47" wide. Nothing is cemented together. I was going to do that after I got it working really well. Now it's working so well I don't think I will cement it together. I think the metal top is 1/4" which is...

    Cons of concrete smoker?

    I've got a concrete block pit. I'm in Florida and the pit is lined with fireplace bricks. Mine heats up pretty quickly, I get it up to 350 degree's and then as I load it up I get the temp down to 200. I find the blocks and bricks hold the heat very well. I don't use much fuel to keep it going...

    Would you like a rotisserie specific category added to smoking supplies and equipment?

    Glad this Roti section is set up. Took one of my very old weber grills and ripped out all the gas pipe and knobs. Put a grate off the bottom inside, added a rotisserie and it works great. We do chickens on it all the time, with wood and coals offset to one side. We use Costco's organic chickens...

    First Build Tons of Questions!

    First Build Tons of Questions!

    Here are the pic's. The opening in the front is where I add fuel. I think my top is 1/8" thick but it needs to be thicker. The heat tends to make the metal curl. That's why I have some blocks on top. This thing works so well my wife wants me to build a finished one my the house. One more honey...
