    Looking to buy a new smoker - Looking for suggestions

    We survived the fire. The CZU Lightning Complex fire got less than a mile from our house. I evacuated the wife and kids and went back and was home during the whole ordeal. I worked with fire and police to make our neighborhood safe and defensible.

    Plumb wood - any good for smoking?

    I have a friend that pruned some plumb trees and offered me the branches. Is it any good for smoking? I already got plenty of apple wood from him.

    Olive Wood

    Sounds like I should hang onto it for smoking. I heat my house with wood so it would end up in the woodshed otherwise. I'll smoke some chicken with it to see how it turns out. Maybe I'll use the olive wood for our Thanksgiving turkey this year.

    First build - drum smoker, need help

    yesterday I picked up two drums that are unlined. They had rubbing alcohol in them so they should be safe to use for a smoker build. I've never built a smoker before and I am looking for help. Does anyone have experience making a side box smoker out of drums?

    Red lined barrels

    So in order to remove the liner do I need to get the barrel hot beforehand? Has anyone tried to remove the liner using Comet and Scotchbrite *without* heating the liner first? I have a line on some barrels for $20 each but they are lined. If I can remove the liner easily I'll go for it. I...

    Has anyone built a combo smokehouse/pizza oven?

    Rob, That video was perfect. His oven/smoker is very impressive. He didn't need to add buttresses because his oven is domed. You are proposing straight walls with a domed ceiling so you would need buttressing. I want to have a wood smokehouse like your design with a pizza oven. Now that...

    Looking for smoker recommendation

    I currently have a Brinkmann smoke 'n pit offset barrel smoker. I doubt it gets really good reviews here but I got in on clearance in 2003 for less than $100 and I have had great results ever since. I have the same model as in this video: As I like the Brinkmann it's size has always been...
