    Stainless Steel fridge smoker success

    This is a cool design. Great idea using an old wood stove for the firebox. You sure you won't get plastic fumes from inside? Does the burnout work well? There is no odor?

    My first time

    How is the fire burning? Are the coals red an ashing? If the the coals aren't burning well, is there decent airflow under them in the firebox?
