    Finished the smoker, needs a couple small tweaks yet, but done to where I can do a couple cooks and see what she does. Seasoned it last night and tomorrow we got a couple brisket and some ribs going on for a company picnic. Like they say, go big or go home!

    600 Gal RF build

    I guess I will roll with this and see what it does. I am assuming someone with way more knowledge then me could plug some data/drawings into a flow simulator/fluid dynamics program and see what pros or cons there are.

    I was hoping to add a warming box later so I didn't want the stack and plenum to interfere with that. Figured I can always remove the plenum inside and go with the conventional pipe only if this doesn't work? Kinda just winged it as bit. What's your initial thoughts?
