    250gal Reverse Flow Trailer Build

    Just out of curiosity how much did this build cost you? Pm me if you don't want it public. I'm strongly considering doing this but im curious how much I need to set aside. I already found a tank for free. 250 gallon

    First Overnight Briskie.........

    I am amazed how much smoke I got into that thing. I never in a million years thought I'd get a brisket to look that good and I did on my second try. Stoking the fire every half hour paid off...

    First Overnight Briskie.........

    Everyone was raving. Overall I was extremely pleased. Very moist and tender and lots of flavor. I can't believe how deep the smoke ring got. Not bad for a $50 smoker from craigslist, $30 in mods and my first packer and overnight on top of it. I've been up 37 hours straight. Time for this country...

    First Overnight Briskie.........

    Hit 165 a little after 8 this morning.  We had temps in the lower 40's all night and my char griller is just losing btu's like crazy.  I was stoking about every 30-45 mins.  Had enough time for a quick pic and then foiled and back on at around 225.  So far it looks amazing.  Thanks for all the...

    First Overnight Briskie.........

    I was shooting for 180° - 200° for slicing.  At 165° I'm foiling.  Im running the smoker at right around 200 - 225. Everything I've read says 1.5-2.0 hrs per pound.  I estimated 1.6 hrs per pound or 21.75 hours....i rounded to 22.  Went on the grates at 8pm.

    First Overnight Briskie.........

    So after only a couple months of smoking I decided to invite some of our friends over for dinner.  My big mouth said "I'll do a brisket!".  So here I am, 10:30 at night, the house is quiet, wife and baby are in bed, dog is snoring next to me, and I'm babysitting my smoker.  To be honest, I can't...

    Double Reverse Flow with Center Fire Box Idea

    I did 30 chicken wings and 3 racks of spare ribs and barely had enough room.  The wings I did in a foil pan and then on the grill directly.  The pan and the racks barely fit.  I was just thinking what I could do to create more room with as little $$ as possible.  I'm not cheap but a 6 month old...

    Double Reverse Flow with Center Fire Box Idea

    Rib, I had thought of that a little. Maybe a sliding damper on both sides. That way I can close off heat to one side if I want to only cook on 1 side. But good thinking. I'm thinking my theory is sound but I'm not 100% yet.

    Double Reverse Flow with Center Fire Box Idea

    So I had an idea. I wanted more cooking surface.  Right now I have a Char Griller outlaw.  I was thinking of adding a second outlaw and building a larger custom fire box in between.  Then making them both reverse flow.  Something like the picture below.  Thoughts?
