    Stainless Vertical Insulated Rotisserie Woodburner

    I made more progress: I made a bracket and mounted the gearmotor, which ran for a day and a bearing failed. It ran about 6 rpm at the rotisserie and drew 5 amps. I then made a new (Black) bracket and mounted the 30:1 gearmotor which draws .5 amp And turns the rotisserie at .9 rpm, which is slow...

    Stainless Vertical Insulated Rotisserie Woodburner

    Oops this just happened. This came up on craigslist for free several weeks ago and he finally returned my email and here it is. It’s a Welbilt brand, in excellent condition, almost completely stainless inside and out. Polished stainless inside. I will make this a woodburner as well. Should be...

    Stainless Vertical Insulated Rotisserie Woodburner

    I made some more progress this weekend I got the rotisserie shaft, wheels and spits modified to go in. I’m going to start using the eight spit wheel version first. This unit was originally a 7 spit rotisserie. With the 8 spit setup I can run 8 spits up to 7” deep or 4 spits 14” deep. I cut down...

    Stainless Vertical Insulated Rotisserie Woodburner

    I made a little more progress on the smoker. I had to cut apart the “shaft mounting collars” that attach the rotisserie wheels to the shaft on the 8 spit wheels They were stainless and the bolts had all welded themselves together so out came the angle grinder and I purchased steel hubs for a go...

    Stainless Vertical Insulated Rotisserie Woodburner

    As you can see here I have massive amounts of stainless I have accumulated over time. Some from craplist, some from the side of the road. I am thrilled to not be welding and grinding for the first time in several days. It’s fun at first but gets old fast with crappy tools and seaming scraps...

    Stainless Vertical Insulated Rotisserie Woodburner

    Thanks. Yes there are a lot of trays and baskets available. Unfortunately good ones aren’t cheap and don’t maximize space so it appears I will have to make or modify something. This photo is a good example.

    Attempting to Convert a Humidified food Warmer into a Smoker

    Sounds great for a personal project. Unfortunately big brother wants all restaurant equipment to be nsf approved. Even if the cabinet is now nsf, once you modify it, it no longer is nsf, unfortunately. Just food for thought... Neil

    Need help with setup of a custom box

    Welcome. Looks like one hell of a project, would take a very large firebox and loads of wood and coal to use it. Will cool drastically every time that huge lid is opened. Unless you intend to cook hundreds of pounds of meat, I’d suggest you sell the boxes and buy a heavy gauge tank to build a...

    Stainless Vertical Insulated Rotisserie Woodburner

    So far I strippped the unit down to its frame, removed the gas heaters, lights, controls, etc. I removed the water pan and lowered it to its lowest level. I completely reconfigured the woodstove into a firebox with snorkel to feed heat OVER the drip pan (previously water pan) and will cover the...

    Stainless Vertical Insulated Rotisserie Woodburner

    Greetings meatheads, I’m converting a giant Hobart rotisserie HGFR-12 into a firebox smoker. Will probably add a second spit and mount a wood stove (standard fireplace insert I got off craplist) in the bottom. Will add a top cover and rockwool insulation. It’s big. It’s heavy. It should be...

    New. Building upright dual rotisserie insulated stainless.

    Thanks! Ambitious is correct. I’ve “made do” with lesser smokers all my life and this is the culmination of years of dreaming and quite a bit of recent scavenging as well as a small investment of cheddar. It’s not a requirement to run “off the grid” but it might be nice for it to be completely...
