    Turning existing concrete/adobe building into smokehouse

    Thanks Dave!  I'm pretty happy with how it's all come together.  Good thought about the screens on top of the rebar...that idea hadn't crossed my mind yet.  I actually do have a little fan for the smokehouse.  It's just a little 4 inch personal fan from Wal-Mart.  I bored a little hole for an...
