    Smoke stack???

    I used aluminium A/C duct. Ask your friend if he can get you the dampers, they are very common in A/C duct work.

    Smoke stack???

    The handles to the dampers on mine are on the back of the stacks that is probably why you can't see them. I put them in backwards and I was too lazy to fix'em... I should though cause it is kinda stupid to have them back there! You don't have to use the dampers! You can always just partially...

    Smoke stack???

    Ok here is what I used for mine. I bought all at Homedepot. This is the collar that goes into the side of the drum and also has the damper in it. The handle for the damper is hard to see in my pics because I painted the small handle black but it is there. This is the damper that just pops...

    Help out a wood-smoker newbie.

    I am with Richtee on this one! I would go with lump and throw some wood chunks in every so often. I prefer not to soak my wood but that is a subject of controversy. ShooterRick's modified 3-2-1 method works real good for me! Rick has the trick! If you are using oak lump then you are pretty much...

    Smoke stack???

    I would have to disagree with not having dampers\baffels in the smoke stacks. I leave mine wide open to 3/4 open all of the time. If you are using the Vogelzang stove kit it comes with dampers in the flues from the fire barrel which you can also adjust. The combination of all of these give you...

    Smoke stack???

    That's a good question! Wonder if smoknrookie could provide us with some pics? I like the double UDS idea though, I was thinkin about doin one of those and makin it look like a rocket with a launch pad, side opening doors, fins and all and having the smoke vent out small ports on the sides...

    Smoke stack???

    On the double barrel smokers it is a little different because the burn barrel is directly below the cooking chamber. This different than an offset. I would recommend that you install stacks on either side 3/4 of the way up. center it about half way between the top of the grill grate and the top...

    Duraflame Hardwood Charcoal - Good Stuff!

    That's a great site "Naked Whiz's Lump Charcoal Database" I had not seen that before. It's pretty good charcoal, smells great also. The only thing not so great was the price, I paid about $5.79 a bag. I got it a Sweetbay Supermarket and everything there is high.

    55 Gallon Drum - Triple Giant

    Here are some early pics before she was finished. I guess I am kinda posting these pics backwards but I just found these and thought I might as well post them.

    Duraflame Hardwood Charcoal - Good Stuff!

    Has anybody tried Duraflame Hardwood Lump Charcoal? I bought 2 - 8.8lb bags and I think it is as good as RO if not a little better. I noticed it in the grocery store and thought I would give it a try since RO is getting harder and harder to find. Check out the website to see what stores carry it...

    I think I have a BBQ (OCD)!?

    Hey norrell6, I grew up in Indiana just outside of Muncie. I miss Indiana and all of the corn fields, pig farms and Hoosiers! I used to go out in the fields after the farmers would plow and find buckets of arrow heads when I was kid! I miss that!! I wish my kids could experience that! I took it...
