    Red's Newest Build: A Direct-Heat Smoker/Grill

    I did a 2nd test cook today. One thing I've been excited to test with this type of cooker is Wings. I figured a direct cooker would slay some chicken wings! So that's what I cooked this afternoon. Mrs. Red bought a 4 lb. bag of wings a couple days ago. These were really big wings! I...

    Thanks for all the kind comments Danny! I did a second test cook on it again today (update on that to follow). It ran like a champ! Yeah, I doubt I'll mess with any insulated FBs, unless I get a custom order and that's just what the guy wants. Like you, I doubt there's much need for...

    Definitely! A burn barrel and a shovel is how they do it in those traditional Texas hill country BBQ joints. LOL the 70% off sale has already started! If you price a new Chud Box, you'll find they go for $2400 before sales tax and shipping. I can let this on go for $700 - which is just...

    Appreciate the comments JC! I've been intrigued by this style cooker for a while now. I started this project with very little real knowledge of direct fire cooking...but really wanted to try it. I'm definitely learning as I go! Red

    When you do that Jim, I'll be hoping to see the cook thread on it here! :emoji_thumbsup: Red

    Thanks Brother! Yeah I learned that through making the mistake. Wasted a bunch of charcoal, and worked harder than I needed to to control the temps. I'll know better next time... Red

    It's hard to imagine that anyone is intimidated by that sweetheart of a Doberman, Ryan! She definitely loves attention LOL! Been a dog lover my whole life. I've always thought that dogs are intuitive about people - they know an animal lover when they meet one! Red

    You got service with a smile, Ryan!! And yeah - I admit it...I don't do blizzards if I can help it! When there's snow coming in Northern Iowa, the smartest thing a Southern boy can do is get back in his truck and get the heck back South and off those Northern plains! Heck yeah! Thanks...

    Red's Newest Build: A Direct-Heat Smoker/Grill

    Thanks Dan! Since I just try to sell 'em for what I have invested in materials, it'd be considerably less than you might expect. Don't hold me to this exact number, as I haven't pulled all my materials receipts together and added them up yet...but I figure I can sell it for $700-ish and...

    Red's Newest Build: A Direct-Heat Smoker/Grill

    Today was test burn day! First off, I'm kinda driving this thing blind...since I've never run a direct heat cooker like this before, I was really just wingin' it. I started with about half a basket full of lump charcoal. Used my weed burner torch to light up a good amount of the coal...
