Aardvark, i remember them days. I used to live in a middle terrace, 5 rooms. Parking one side of the street with two way traffic. Everything had to come in through the living room. Real pain to store anything large.
I understand your dilemna!!
I'm with Rich on this one ..... i'd say a trailer option would be best. If you know anyone over there who has a metal shop take him some pics of a trailer grill/smoker unit and see what they'll quote you.
Living out here i see a lot of these trailers and for catering they are they way to go...
One of the guys i work with came up to me yesterday and asked - What do you know about "fattys". Bear in mind this guy does not own a smoker and is not a member of this forum. He IS a member of the Iowa Outdoors forum and said a lot of guys on there are talking about them. He was asking how they...
Hi ya RKFD glad you joined us .....I had/have the same dilemna, i love using mine as grill. Here's my cheap simple fix until you can get a permanent solution figured. I just bought some oven liners and used them for a while. Then i found that an old cookie sheet works pretty good for now too...
I normally do the minion method to begin with. Start with a chimney full of unlit in the basket, then dump on about 1/2 to 3/4 of lit. Temps come up quick and hold for a decent time. But from then on i'll always add lit. Didn't want to risk the temp drop. Guess i need to try this way out to...
Glad you joined us Brandsbay. when i moved here i really hadn't grilled much, and like you said ..... black outside, pink inside. I learnt fairly quickly just how to grill right. Then one day the wife brought home an ecb for $20.00. Been hooked on smoking ever since.
My family have visited me...
Saw the ad in our local paper today. Sale is thru Sunday so planning to check these out tomorrow. Hoping to pick up at least 3, have at least that much room in our freezer.
Hmmm interesting, this may be why i use a lot of charcoal. I've always scooted the existing coals towards the smoke chamber and then added lit lump to the vent side of the sfb. May just have to try this out on my next smoke.
This is what i love about this place .... always learning new things .
I use this site a lot for all kinds of recipes. Especially them evenings when i have say, some chicken breast or 1lb ground beef and no idea what to do with it. Always find something interesting on there.
hey noob ...... check this thread out for therm info.

A lot of people on here really like the Maverick ET73. I have a Mav ET71 (single probe)had it forthree years now, works great, changed batteries maybe twice. Lowes, Home Depot and...
Hey Rich ... this is the cg duo
One side is a gas grill and the other is a charcoal grill to which you can add the sfb.
Ron ... i know there is a couple of members have this model. Can't remember who tho. Did you get the side fire box too?
Anyways, welcome to smf, have a good look around...
I've done sveral chuck roasts .... think they were arm cuts. All have cooked up good, pulled easy and tasted great. Paid around $2.50 lb
I cooked them using the same method as a butt and they came out fine.
Well done on rescuing a smoker from the scrapheap. That is a great sevice you have done.
The afterburner Guvna mentioned does look interesting and a fairly easy mod to do. http://www.gassmoker.com/
I have used a similar tool just not the same brand. They will only read surface temps. We use them for checking engine manifold and cylinder temps. Although of course being guys we also check the temp of everything from the lit end of a cigarette to ..... well anything you can point a laser at .
Hi ya Aardvark ....... yet another brit joining in, welcome.
If you are into your bbq which you obviously are then this is the country to be in. I've been living here for 7 years and really enjoy the whole bbq/grilling thing. Before movign here i hadn't done any kind of grilling, apart from...
