Hey Bro,

Obviously your a Kiwi with a name "Porknpuha" .

Next year I will probably build a smoker and parrilla (Argentine grill) set up similar to yours in my back yard.

I will be following this build.

 

[porknpuha]

Hi there,

Been in the U.S. For 5 years working but grew up in NZ.
Building this smoker at my in laws in East TN.

 

[porknpuha]

Hey,

Sure am Kiwi born and bred.

Let me know how the build goes.

 

[porknpuha]

Alright we are back on task!

Warning having children will,slow a project like this to a crawl.

Building up walls next few days.
Trying to get ready to be able to roof the smoke house.

Been running a few small fires thru the furnace looks to be drafting very nicely.

Looking good pork. What's going to be your first smoke?

 

[porknpuha]

Hi Humdinger,
I think a couple of fail safe butts would be the best option.
Obviously once doors are on we have to tinker with heat and seals on doors etc.

Probably going to do a couple of dry runs on seasoned hickory to get a feel for it.

 

[jwsmoken]

Looking good.
On my bucket list to build one.

 

[porknpuha]

Been busy and procratinating. However, here is the latest.

Insulated th roof and started to finish the roof with cedar.

I have an insulated cedar door so thought that would match nicely.

Started with zero knowledge and learnt a lot - TONS MORE TO LEARN, if I can help happy to offer an opinion.

 

[porknpuha]

Just got finished,

I know it took a long time my few excuses involve currently having a 3 and 1 yr old and I built this at my father in laws as a gift to him. Approx 3.5 hrs away from where I live. But......... finally....... finished.
