    Info on small smokers?

    yes, this looks great, especially compared to the ecb. sounds like the only mod needed is to simply make the charcoal holder bigger. do any of you know any type of retail stores that may carry this? i dont mind buying it online, but i prefer to buy it in person also, ive read that they are...

    Info on small smokers?
