    Tighten your seatbelts! Making my first attempt at a reverse flow smoker!!!

    i really like the idea! i think i will wait about that and see if i decide to do alot of smoking in the colder months or if there is even much call for it. it usually gets in the upper teens to the lower 20s here where i live in the coldest months, and that is the lows. for example, we will see...

    Tighten your seatbelts! Making my first attempt at a reverse flow smoker!!!

    thank you again rib wizard. i am hoping that i can build a small fire out in it with a few pieces of oak. i definitely do not want it to warp. that would be like twisting a car frame before the build lol. not good. the door has a vent in it and i am planning on placing my door above the small...

    Pulled Pork, Second Attempt Qview

    lol DUH! i have no idea what i was thinking disco. the thought never crossed my mind that you were possibly talking about foiling it before it was finished cooking. i never do that, didnt even know that it helped the process until i got on here. so as far as that goes, i appologize. i always...

    Tighten your seatbelts! Making my first attempt at a reverse flow smoker!!!

    i have another question that i just thought of. if i build the smoker as i have described above with the baffle and moving the exhaust, will all of my dimensions be right as far as the exhaust, firebox size etc? i have always heard that you can go bigger on the dimensions but not smaller.

    Pulled Pork, Second Attempt Qview

    hey disco. if im not mistaken. wrapping in foil not only keeps the boody from drying out, it also helps it to keep cooking slowly and warm until you get ready to pull it. was the mustard very strong or noticeable? i have used rub dry when smoking, never mustard and i am curious about it. i am...

    Tighten your seatbelts! Making my first attempt at a reverse flow smoker!!!

    here is a setup that i am contemplating using. i think i may go ahead and get my barrels today. i am wondering if it is more cost and time efficient to use a propane setup like this to burn the paint off of the barrels or if i should just start a fire in them and burn it off that way? also i had...

    Tighten your seatbelts! Making my first attempt at a reverse flow smoker!!!

    i could see how needing to tweak it alot....seems like it would give you something to do to keep you occupied during those looooong smokes lol. i am planning on welding a cold rolled steel grate to keep the fire off the floor of the firebox. i fully intend on putting fire bricks in the very...

    Tighten your seatbelts! Making my first attempt at a reverse flow smoker!!!

    did you seem to have a hard time recovering the cc temps? i started to go with a design such as yours. i was just worried that i would lose way too much heat with it opening like that? i have also thought about putting my door high enough that i can leave the small bung intact. if i do this then...
