Cover for top of brick smoker

[BBQN DJ]

Trying to finish my smoker before my wedding 2 weeks from today and can't find any metal to cover my smoker up and was wanting to know is there anything else I could use? I've seen some people use plywood, the metal barn siding, galvanized drip pan trays etc etc etc....Just looking for something for right now so I can fire it up one good time before I do 8 butts and a brisket. Thanks in advance for any input given.

sheet metal roofing panels and screw them together if you want... make sure they overlap several inches on all sides....

Yes.. that will work.... I did the same thing.... I made a wooden frame of 1x4 and screwed the metal to it... The metal did not overhang the wood frame because the sharp edges of the metal could be a problem if someone walked into it...
