    How big should my firebox be?

    Yeah from looking at the calc, and the size of what my contraption is, I would agree about the 1/3 size for the burnbox, and that mine needs to be bigger.

    Help needed on first smoker build

    Dave, thank you for the links, they help out a lot. And I have found that my burn box is too small and should be more then 2X the size it is right now. I had the general idea and design pretty good, just need to make some mods and tweak it a bit. I think I'm on the right track right now. Now I...

    Acronyms?

    Somewhere around here, I have seen a couple different posts that talked about the acronyms that are used. However, I cannot find any of those posts. Can anyone here post the links to them? One of them I really liked because the definitions were on a comedic side, and that made me laugh when I...

    Help needed on first smoker build

    Hello everyone, I have just built an offset smoker and I have a few questions. I guess the big question is; Is there a relationship in size between the smoke box and the cook box? My cook box is a 55gal barrel and the burn box is prolly a 5gal barrel. I seem to be having a big problem keeping a...

    How big should my firebox be?

    @SQWIB... I looked at the Pit Calc, are all of the figures that are needed on this sheet in inches? Cause the results that it is coming up with seem pretty big for the exhaust, vents, ports. Just seems odd to me, but I'm still learning and new at all of this.

    Coals versus fresh wood...

    I have seen in a couple different posts of people talking about stopping the smoking process and finishing the cook. Now how is that really possible? If you are talking about pulling out the wood, are you putting back in coal for heat without over smoking? The reason I'm asking here is the other...

    First time smoker

I am not new to BBQ, but I am a first timer with smokers. I just built my first smoker which I is a sideways barrel smoker similar to...
