    Removable RF plate?

    Nope, you burn the wood or charcoal in the firebox and use a shovel to move the coals to the smoker. Argentine parrilla style.

    Planning out my first build

    If the thing has been sitting outside in the mud for 20 years the bottom maybe rotted out of it. Post pics would help alot. I use 1/4" for my fireboxes usually and add firebricks where needed.  As always posts pics and questions here BEFORE you start hacking it apart, so the folks here can...

    500 gallon

    New ~84" x ~36" reverse flow smoker

    Little boy smoker

    Knocked this up out of 120 gallon tanks welded together.   Sorry my phone camera sucks.   Firebox is 1/4"  Sorry Dave, too hard to explain to folks how to use a dual vent set up.   I used 2 vents as I had these small ones laying around the shop.  Almost 72 years later the...
