    New Smoker Build

    Hi Niall, my pal runs a powder coating shop and he said it would withstand cook chamber temps, but not firebox temps. When I eventually get my UDS built, I'm just going to use automotive paint as I reckon as long as it doesn't come into contact with a flame, it should be fine. Across from the...

    Turner & George??????

    What a generous offer Brian, I'm sure one of the guru's will be along shortly to take up the challenge, either cut would make a good demo.

    Electrican

    An electrician dies just after his fortieth birthday and goes to heaven. When he gets there, he sees a big crowd all chanting his name, an orchestra playing heavenly music and Saint Peter beckoning him. He thinks this is all unexpected but he likes it. He says to Saint Peter "I'm really pleased...

    Here's an after pic for you, back end looks a bit crisper, but that's the thickest part and it didn't suffer. And after the vulures had circled !

    Adding smoke to a whole hog roast

    Thanks for all the good advice guys, pushing it to get an AMNT'S delivered to the UK for this weekend. Think I'll try and suspend a perforated tin above the burner. Tiger stripes for the crackling sounds a good idea, everyone wants a piece usually before we've started plating up !

    Adding smoke to a whole hog roast

    Next Saturday is our local pub's annual charity day which culminates in a hog roast that I got shangheid into doing 3 years ago. We hire a gas powered grill/oven and I was wondering if this year I could somehow introduce some smoke into the mix. Here's a pic of last years hog, the gas burner...

    Our first mass catering event

    I was worn out just reading that. Sounds like it was a success even if you took some bellies home, just put them on the specials board in the pub !

    newbie

    Hi Jimmy, good luck with the smoker build and if it all goes tits up and catches fire, it will give off a lovely aroma   Maybe try one of those single electric hotplates as a heat source ? Keep meaning to have a run up your way to check out the Wheel. We were at Bridge of Allan a couple of...

    Bank holiday weekend activities

    Hi, the cobb oven was built with my own fair hands9786 I got the information from a book called Build your own Earth Oven by a guy called Kiko Denzer, you can get it on Amazon for about £6. Instead of using expensive fire bricks for the base, I used salvaged heat bricks from electric storage...

    Bank holiday weekend activities

    The fire pit is just the stainless steel wash drum from the inside of an old front loading washing machine. I've made a few of them now for friends and can usually pick an old machine up for free on Freecycle. The one in the pic has screw on legs made from galvanised conduit, but I normally just...
