    It's a home made smoker. I work in a machine shop / weld shop so I made a steel frame and sheeted it with stainless steel. Then bricked it into my smoker.

    Today I smoked the turkey I brined overnight, it was only a 10 pound turkey since it was the first one in my new smoker . I also did shirt ribs and smoked a pan of stuffing. The stuffing was amazing.. Everything turned out great. Ready for thanksgiving for a big one now.

    120 gallon tank smoker! FIRST build ever!

    I would use a small squirrel cage blower like this and mount it far enough away from your fire box that it won't melt the wires and use about 2" pipe to run to the fire box from the fan.

    120 gallon tank smoker! FIRST build ever!

    It comes with a thermometer probe that goes in your smoker . You can set what temperature you want to maintain and how close it can very or drop front that temperature. When your smoker cools down to your limit it has a 110v switch that turns on a blower to force air into your fire box until...

    120 gallon tank smoker! FIRST build ever!

    That's the controller I bought. It comes with directions and whatnot but you will need a 110v blower to feed the fire.
