    A vertical Is a lot easier to build then an offset or RF and cheaper

    New Built-in smoker build/design - Looking for some advice.

    I don't know about everyone else but I strictly use wood in my RF and you definitely have to tend to to it every hour to hour in a half but if all the star are aligned 2 hours. If you want an easy set it and forget it. Look at a pellet or vertical charcoal smoker. They are all automated.

    I finally decided, I had to finish Miss LuLu last month after countless cooks over the last year. She is painted , and now has handles and latches, with an addition of a grill/wood hauler.

    I thought about the extra drain at the bottom of the smoker too but it's just more work than necessary. What I do is Lift the front up on the smoker and let it drain out of the firebox.

    RF plate acts as even radiant heat and steam once the drippings hit the plate. Imo thats the advantage or rf vs. side. by adding water it will probably cool the chamber down and making it inefficient. There is only one real hot spot just in that corner
