Made ribs and briskets for friends and family. It was really good. I cubed some of the brisket sauced it and smoked it for some mouth watering burnt ends. I pulled another piece of the brisket shredded it and made some awsome sandwiches topped with cole slaw. The bbq sauce was home made I also...

I smoked duck the other day. I pumped up smoker temp to 325f. Brought up breast to 165f. All was good. I finished up the duck on the grill to get a crispier skin. I will try 225 next time and see the difference. I hung up the duck vertically in the smoker i have a vertical smoker. All fat was...

Thanks man, btw, your tip to weld a drip piece on the door from the inside was very useful.

And finally i am done. I also tried to take a pic of the brisket i done today this what i salvaged

Lol. Actually, everyone who have seen it for the first time thought it was a safe. This baby weighs a lil under a ton.

Started on the painting job. First layer today

I used apple wood. The wife is just flabbergasted by the results, i had her family over for the feast. I tinkered with airflow, whenever i crack the firebox open, heat iwould rise rapidly to 280. So i left it alone. The valves i have on are enough to control the heat to get it where i want.

Yes with huge success. A 12 lb brisket , 2 racks of ribs and 6 chickens. I wanted to take pictures but they didn't let me. Everything was devoured in under 30 minutes. They refused to even let the brisket rest. It looked and tasted delcious. The chicken was melting, and the ribs was so tender...

Handles done

I very much like the idea. I will do it.

My wife hates everything about this project. She saying that its a big pile of junk. Hioefully when she eats out of it she will change her mind otherwise ill be sleeping in the smoker, heck its big enough. Tell me more about the dripping deflector strip. I was thinkng the drippings will fall on...

You guys think these handles an overkill?

Doors mounted.

In the process of insulation

Thanks dave, that's what i thought. The beast is coming along, it will weigh almost a ton.

So ill keep with this design . Another question, Do you insulate the top of the fire box between the firebox and food chamber? I followed your post on the commercial smoker, pretty impressive. Not in mexico, im in Egypt.

What's better in your opinion. Keeping the stack from the inside like what i did or from the outside and make the smoke escape through holes to the the stack?

Rack holders done

Progress

Lol. You think im taking it too far?
