    Oklahoma Joe's vertical, advice needed

    Made some progress today. The firebox "drain" (I've been told that this is actually a port for an optional propane starter) was gone, as was the bottom track for the firebox damper. First, the damper track. I milled down a piece of 1/2" angle on the lathe into a 1/2" x 1/4" L bracket...

    Years probably. It still had ash in it.Luckily it hasn't taken much from the metal, no rust-through or thin spots yet. What's the best way to treat it inside the firebox? The rust on the outside is no problem, but I'm hesitant to use any chemicals or paint inside.

    I finally got back in town and picked it up yesterday. It's heavier than I thought it would be. The only structural rust is on the little square spout at the bottom of the fire box that I would guess is a drain? It seems to have some sort of plug in the end of it. I'll cut that spout out and...

    Oklahoma Joe's vertical, advice needed

    Hello all. I'm new here. I usually use a pellet smoker or a gas pit so don't beat on me too hard. I've been offered this one, all I have to do is pick it up. I've never had a stick burner before, except for a big masonry pit that we shovel coals into. Are these any good? I've heard that there's...

    Hello. I'm Drew, from Mount Holly, NC. I usually cook on either a homemade gas pit with a smoke generator or a pellet grill, but a friend is giving me a stick burner. I've never run one of these before, so I'll need a bit of help. I'll post a picture in the stick burner section as soon as it...
