    Doing a dry run now, to see how heat is contained. Pretty well as of right now, but time will tell.  I know that this isn't a true reverse flow sytem, but working on a tight budget, I think it's something that might make do.  Will definitely keep what you said in mind though.  All in all, I have...

    So I've been working on a cheap offset.  I got it for about 100$ off amazon, and figured I could find a way to make it a reverse flow, and down the road, buy or a build something with better steel.  Here's what i've been working with. Not the greatest, not the worst.   I burned some coal...

    Hi from Wales

    He's from Wales.  And with username like Osperys2, he's most definitely a rugby fan.  I'm wanting the Welsh rugby squad to not wallop Ireland on saturday...

    Making a charcoal/electric smoker

    Propane looks like a solid way to do things.  My last smoker was electric, and it had an always at 250F mode, and that was it.  With an element like this, I could go lower, and if I wanted it higher, toss some charcoal or wood onto the lava rock to boost the interior temperature.  But low and...

    Making a charcoal/electric smoker

    I've got a plan to make my cheap offset both an electric AND charcoal smoker. I'm curious as to whether this is a good choice for heating element.  It's going to be inserted into a metal box containing lava rock, with one of those fancy smoking tubes put above it for the flavor.  I plan on...

    Hi from Urbana

    Screwed in a board to the metal, so I could add in hooks, and make it look better.   Added a rope gasket around the side, being held in with high heat cement and some small screws.  Used the cement around all the screws, the useless thermometer that came with and where the chimney is inserted...

    Hi from Urbana

    I have some ideas. One is to have two separate ways of smoking.  One with an electric element similair to what my old brinkman had, and the other using the minion method.  Makes it a lazy smoker, or a full on charcoal/wood.  I like both ideas.  Also planning on a baffle, and figuring a way to...

    Hi from Urbana

    Hey all, I'm Liam, used to do my smoking on an electric brinkman, but the heating element blew, and rather than buy a new element, I bought a discounted offset Char-Broil.  I know they aren't the greatest (and judging from the smoke seeping from everywhere while seasoning it, I've got my work...
