My next thought was foundation? I'm still deciding, although I might just put it on a field stone or something similar foundation. Thinking maybe C Block and some of that fancy rock veneer? My goal is to make this baby look like it has been there all along. I was thinking of going with wood...
I certainly will post my build as I go through. My issue at the moment is not if but when. I am hoping to get going this fall, but I might build it over the winter.
That's huge. I don't have a table saw, but the 30 year old master mechanic circular saw is like cutting butter, in my hands! Now for drilling those holes... One of the things that stinks about living in the Northeast. On a slab. No garage... I have a shed that is like 12 x 20 inside I need to...
I like that idea. I have hard maple trees all over the place and you know there is this one in my backyard that's choking out too much sunlight and hey those branches are pretty straight and ...brrrr,,,brrr (chain saw on pull one and two, one more primer bulb push and... )
Thanks for explaining all of that, it. That makes good sense to me and I an going to PDF this thread once you get done (for future reference) I have read lots of posts from DaveOmak and you are right, his advice is solid.
One more question, Do you have an air intake down near the bottom? Is...

Interesting build! Smokehouses are a new interest for me. Is there a particular reason why you went with the 40"x40" size? Also how tall is your house? I have been also wondering about the smoke leaving the smokehouse. Did you leave gaps under the eaves or what is your plan for that? I have also...
great experiment. That is our life's mission. Take all sorts of chances cooking food and then eating it. We owe this debt to all of humankind! Hat's off to you Disco for your sacrifice!
I'm sure the red wine thing was just due to the "Canadian" time difference!
I use the ET-732 and love it. Very accurate, no issues. I use an ECB so opening up to look and probe let's all the heat out. Keeping the lid on keeps the temps consistent... my .02 Smoke on!
There you go. I just pictured here in an old dusty cobwebbed corner of the garage or shed... all alone... discarded like an old rake with a broken handle...
Steve, I think you should be posting that in the Charcoal forum, or somewhere over here:

I already know your grill, but I'm not sure about the magnetic thermometer? You need to take measurements of the temps as close to the cooking...
Good luck with that new WSM! They are great smokers for sure. We will miss you in the ECB Group ( LOL) You are still welcome to come by and listen to us complain!
