    First 120 gallon smoker build

    My crappy attempt at drawing. Thinking I will have the chimney welded to the warming box, and a small opening to the warming chamber for a bit of smoke to season some foods without total immersion in the cook chamber. Your thoughts?

    Firebox and RF plate questions

    In looking at the firebox/warming box, I am thinking of building a firebox and not cut the end off the tank. If I build the firebox and tuck it under the tank and vent straight up, it should give me enough room to have a decent warming chamber without making it 5 feet tall. I want to build a...

    Firebox and RF plate questions

    Building first smoker.

    I have been doing some more thinking about the smoker. I plan on using charcoal for consistency instead of wood for the most part. A coworker does some amateur comps, and he recommended using the DigiQ and two 25cfm fans. I am thinking of using the A-MAZE-N smoker of some type for flavor.  Have...

    Building first smoker.

    Picture shows my first build tank I picked up. I have been smoking for about 4 years using a walmart upright propane smoker that is now rusted out. I want to build a reverse flow smoker and would like to use propane as well as wood as heat source.
