I am planning to make a reverse flow smoker out of a 375 gallon propane tank that I bought for $100 on Craigslist. I originally wanted a 250 gallon tank or smaller but my dad (who is a truck driver in Texas) told me to “GO BIG or GO HOME!” Then he told me that I couldnt do it. Needless to say, I couldn’t help but feel challenged and I would like to dedicate this build to “foolish pride”. This project is going to be a little bit different than most tanks I have seen on this forum and I thought it would be pretty challenging to pursue. The cooking area of this tank will be huge and I feel that this large size may present some problems. But who cares because I have plenty of Bud Light. My next dilemma is if I should build or buy the trailer. Right now I can’t see the benefit of building a trailer if I can find a used one with working lights. TIME=MONEY. I have even contemplated a double axel but I don’t want to go into over kill mode just yet. I need to put his bad boy on a scale. Now lets see if I can get some pictures to download to catch everyone up to speed.
