Hi Motolife, not sure what CC actually means. I'm fairly new to smoking meats, and not sure of the nomenclature in the meat smoking realm. This smoker is fairly mini in size. The tank is only 14" long, and the smoke stack is 14" tall. The firebox box is made from 1/4" plate and is 8.5" X 7.5" rectangle. The smoke stack is 2.5" in diameter, and the intake is 1.75" in diameter, both with slider style close off's. It will be good enough for the Wife and myself on camping excursions. The grill grate itself is 13" X 10" with 9" of room from the grate to the top of the smoker chamber. A small pork butt, a couple of rotisserie chickens, or maybe two racks of ribs cut in half would probably fit nice. It's tiny. My other smoker is a direct flow/reverse flow, with removable chamber plates, two smoke stacks, and is made from a 55 gallon air tank. It will be a learning curve cooking on this freshly built little guy.I like it looks good. How long is the cc? Makes sure to come back and post food and fire box pics. Not enough stick burners on here for my taste
Thank You, can't wait to get some meat in it!, Cheers!Great workmanship! Congratulations on a great smoker!
Maybe we should not talk about weight? Hahaha... It's a bit on the heavier side for a mini, but solid that's for sure.Great job in building and thinking it out Quality work for sure. How heavy is it to lift up?
Thanks, much appreciated. Going to try it out tomorrow, see how she does! Cheers! :)Nice job!
That's some quality work there!

It was an air tank, slightly larger than the portable air tanks that are Campbell brand Walmart and HF sells. Slightly thicker gauge too. It was a vintage air tank from a small compressor.What did you use for the cook chamber looks like a portable air tank.
Oh, Thanks for the insight...I was clueless what that meant in the smoking realm.CC equals cook chamber, great job on the build.

The mini smoker is not too heavy. One person can lift it no problem, but I added nice wheels, so it's a breeze to move about now.Great job in building and thinking it out Quality work for sure. How heavy is it to lift up?
