Missed this somehow ??? Nice work on that smoker. I saw the pics in the saugage section and wondered what it was built from. I bought my walk in cooler at a school auction for $450.00 and saw 2 of those there but was not sure what they were. To top it off I talked to the wife about if I could...
Found this shot I already had . I think I am going to mod. it and make it a little shorter in lenth so I can get a complete circle of charcoal on the grate. I have seen where some just use a tin soup can with the bottom cut out and holes drilled around it.
I used expanded metal for a grate and the charcoal rails. Just bent the metal into a long oval and used mechanics wire to secure the ends and tie it to the grate in the center. It does not take much to hold it in place, once you add the charcoal it can't go anywhere. If this is not clear to you...
I have yet to try a brisket but it sounds like you are on the right track. The cooler trick WORKS for pulled pork and other smokes I've done. Good luck and post some pics of the finished product!

As for the rest of the pork it was divided up with...

A friend gave me some gator a few years back. I deep fried it with a bater the wife makes for fish, I loved it. We don't get a chance for much gator meat in Ohio but I would try and pressure cook it for 30 min.then put in the smoker to brown and induce some smoke flavor. For an hour or 2 at...
