    100lb Propane Build

    1.5"x1.5"x .1875" or .250" would be fine for the legs, I wouldn't use .125" that's a little flimsy. What were you planning on using for the grate frame material? For the side supports, angle would work with the bottom leg facing in to give you a shelf so to speak, or are you concerned about...

    100lb Propane Build

    The leg and frame material are totally up to you. Angle is easy to work with. Best bet is to get a big piece of cardboard and lay out an end view of your tank. Determine at what height you want your bottom grate to be in relation to your height, that will be the height off the ground. I...

    Swift premium baby back ribs

    Smithfield are the worst brand of ribs I ever made, I ended up throwing them out. Tried that brand on two different occasions with the same results. They had a "funk" about them that was just gross. Also very fatty.

    Using wood in Oklahoma Joe firebox

    I made a new stack as the old one didn't draw well. The new one has no damper. I adjust the temp with the amount of fuel and might crack the door to get in a little more oxygen if needed.

    Using wood in Oklahoma Joe firebox

    I use charcoal to get a coal bed and then switch to straight wood splits. I use the supplied basket as it does a better job of holding the smaller coals than just the grate. Do yourself a favor and get some good gauges and put them at grate level. I also use a 9x13 cake pan at the inlet of...

    500 gallon reverse flow build

    If your building a single grate that's 48"x60" I would go with 2x2x3/16" angle with a minimum of 1 center support, but personally would use two, creating (4) sections. Something that big will have a lot of flex and even with 11Ga expanded it would be a mess. Make your frame, cope the two...

    Weber Kettle Help

    I agree your just waiting too long to dump your coals from the chimney. I let mine go maybe 15 minutes after lighting using 3-4 pieces of news paper (lump charcoal makes a mess on the side burner of the grill.. ask me how I know this..). The top section of charcoal should still be black with...

    Attached smoker Box Question for Char griller Duo

    I bought my OK Joe highland reverse flow at BJs for $279.00, to me it's much better than a WSM with more capacity and a lower price. I replaced a Char-griller smokin pro I bought used that finally rusted out.

    Best Way to install

    I would suggest just using machine screws to bolt the latches on (most times there isn't enough room where the holes are to pop rivet that style of latch onto something. As for a toggle clamp, that is meant to hold something down. What you bought (draw latches) are exactly what you want if...

    Aging/Cellaring Beers

    Bottled beers have a shelf life, a flip top would maybe be better than your average crimp on cap. But it's meant to be drank not admired on a shelf. Plus that's why Mad Elf is a seasonal, ment to be enjoyed during that time frame (although it's not for me). Troegs chocolate stout was rather...

    Coal Set up In offset smoker

    Check out this link, they have stuff per specific smoker for different modifications. The best mod I did to my smoker was re-make my exhaust stack which not flows properly, next would be to move the temp gauges to grate level and switch to Tel-Tru gauges (Doyzant from Amazon are china junk)...

    Just got my Lang

    Quality for price is why I can't and won't pay for a expensive smoker.. I'm a metal fabricator by trade (my company doesn't allow side work in their shop though...) I'm very anal retentive and most of what I see available is pretty expensive for what you get. Now the Jambo smokers are top...

    New - Oklahoma Joe's Highland Smoker

    I have the highland reverse flow model, The two most important things I have done to help my unit run better was to rotate the fire grate. This raises it up from 2" to 4" and gives better air flow. The next was I made a new stack which drastically improved flow and I now can have a 'clean"...

    First smoker build

    I appears that your constructing your smoker from stainless. While that sounds like a good idea, standard grade stainless will not take well to heat and warp like crazy, you need high temp stainless like grade 310. Also I noticed a lot of sugaring on the main cook chamber, I would suggest...

    Exhaust stack redo?

    you will end up with a total stack length of 45" measuring from centerline. I would suggest if you do make an offset, use tube fittings rather than miters, it will flow much better. Here is a link to what i'm talking about...

    Firebox to Cook Chamber opening??

    If you plug in your needed volume, it comes up with a 19 1/16" wide half moon. Height is the radius which would be 19.0625 divided by 2 for a radius of 9.53125" at the apex of the arc. You could always play with numbers to still equal the given area needed. Don't discount an elliptical cut...
