    Building a new smoker and would like some sugguestions

      I really like your layout.  Been wanting to do something like you are doing all my adult life!   Am I to assume the air intake will be in the door of the fire pit and the cover will be able to seal the top of the grill to divert the heat and smoke into the smoker box?  Is the wall poured...

    Adding a Square Fire Box to 250 Gal

    I going to add a fire box to my old (built in 1986) 250 gal grill.  I have built them before but used 40 gal propane tanks.  I am going to make this one square using either 1/4" or 3/16" (cost will play a factor) steel. Has anyone built a square fire box for a 250 gal that would share their...

    Lower temps on Lang 60 Desired

    I agree with Pineywoods, stay with smaller wood pieces. I have never had a factory custom built smoker (I envy you) , but with the ones I build I always play round with the temp during my seasoning of the grill. I just pick a starting amount of what ever I am going to use for heat (charcoal and...

    Got a new tank, now what do I do with it?

    You never build a bad build, you just like some better then others.  Make sure you use the calculator to make sure the temp setting will be OK at the end of the build. I have built one out of a 120 gal on a 40”x49” trailer from Harbor Freight. It work out great and I added a fire box to it to...

    Hot Water Tanks: Galvnaized?

    I agree with Sawruff.  Try to get a old gas hot water. The others are thin.

    You can never be to safe.  It takes no time to soap it up and empty it.  Keep us posted on the build when you get it started. Good luck, RandyA from Florida

    New project as a humble beginning

    Nice tank!  I would position based on what I wanted to do with it.  If grilling is your main forte, flat.  If you lean more toward smoking, then upright!  Either way, this will make a nice build. I am looking forwarded to seeing it grow. On getting the smell out, it will always burn out. ...
