    Barrel Preparation

    Thanks rib wizard. The skirting would definitely be easier to install, so I will probably go that route. You mentioned creating reverse flow inside the smoker. I've seen double barrel smokers with two pipes between the firebox and cooker, and then two exhausts on the sides.. Would that be...

    Barrel Preparation

    It could be done :D. It actually crossed my mind. I would rather do it right the first time. Do you know how well a 30 gallon drum would fit inside, if I would have enough room for insulation, and would that be a large enough firebox?

    Barrel Preparation

    I'm probably beating a dead horse with this thread. But, I'm Trying to build my first smoker and before I did to much research I bought a couple barrels with a red liner :(. I plan on sandblasting it out, but was wondering if someone with a little experience could help me in the order I...
